Great little frame (well, biggish), perfect commuter, winter ready with mudguard/rack mounts, F&R brake drilling and cable guides. It's built by Pete Luxton, a small frame builder based down in Devon, for the husband of the president of the CTC in 1974. History.... Pretty light, could well be Reynolds 531, I'm no witch-doctor so I can't be sure, seems pretty feasible though. Definately a decent tube set. Beautiful Nervex lugged junctions and BB, semi wrap over seat stays, neat small track/horizontal dropouts unlike most path/track frames of the era.
I've had it for a little over a year, and have had a couple of the small dents filled out, then blasted and powder coated a dark green/grey/blue colour. Ready to roll. The powder coating has a few scuffs from use, but is still in good shape... Only other thing to note is the small weird dent (pictured) near the BB. Which I didn't get filled as you can't see it when the cranks are on.
The frame is built for 27" but I had it built up with guards and 700c, with deep drop brakes, (I have a set of Alhonga ones that I can chuck in for an extra £5) . The frame would work a treat with bigger tires and wider guards, although I never got around to that. I've the original decals too, direct from Pete, if you fancy slinging those back on.
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
