Oohhh that's cool! I always assumed they built them - theres another old shop/framebuilder up here that was owned by the Yates so I assumed Denton was the same kinda thing and built their own frames.

Yeah I've not seen many either-think Denton just bought frames from a few quality builders and put shop decals fitted though so maybe they've all been re-sprayed by now? I got it on Retrobike about 5 yrs ago for buttons with a deore/biopace groupset and C-Record wheels. pretty sure it's a Mercian-built KOM frame that was rebadged for Denton but have never checked with them to confirm. 531ST and all the braze ons you need anyway and the chrome is still perfect even of the paint's seen better days-riding it around through Swedish sub zero temperatures certainly didn't help! I just sold my Ti Enigma audax because I knew I couldn't part with the Denton so I think that reflects its value to me quite well :)
