just painted the frame

Much better looks lovely now :)

Bad etiquette but I have an 853 aero tubed Donohue for sale in the classifieds section. 57.5 TT measured c-to-c, 14cm HT and 56cm ST.

Hi,
recently I acquired a reynolds 853 frame. I was told it was Graham Weigh. The paint wasn't original and poor so I striped it down. It has some really odd features like integrated lower headset cup. Has anyone seen this before ?

Do you have a shot of the rear of the seatpost lug?

It's tig welded, which is consistent with Paul's work, but have not seen a HT like that as yet.

Just from the side. The frame has serial nr. on the bb shell and both dropouts.

If the reinforcement at the lug hole is a half circle welded on its the same as on mine.

As there's a serial perhaps others can help there mine has none :)

Yes it has a half circle reinforcement welded.

Sr.nr.4483099 on the bb shell.
Sr.nr on dropout T116 or TI16

Like mine then :)

No hole drilled or serial though so can't help further.

Hi, just bought this. Quality frame, think it's a Donohue.

Went through some piles of paper the other day and found an old brochure, in case anyone's interested. By the way, for some reason my Donohue hasn't got a serial number.

I am pretty sure it is too.

On ebay very nice road Graham Donohue weigh, blue metallic/white fade in 54*55 cm

Built my 853 Weigh branded Donohue up again over the weekend to take some pics to sell it. I forgot how much I like this bike.... Trying to justify keeping it now...

That would be great. Post it up. Much appreciated.

Nice!!!! What size and how many £s. Will get snapped up.

It's 56 square. I've not worked out a price as of yet if I'm honest due to my reluctance to sell. A shoulder injury has meant I'm stuck riding more sensible bikes for a while, so It's sitting in the garage unused at the moment. It's an absolute rocket- funnest bike I've owned

Don't sell it. Save it for when you get back to full health again.
Just my 2p.
Get well soon.
