So never posting a proper topic before I thought I'd give it a wee shot. It may be as popular as a chocolate teapot but hey ;)
I recently bought a classic geometry frame from Argos cycles. Beautifully fillet brazed, great paint and excellent handling it was also made from Reynolds 753. Not knowing much about it I read up a bit and was quite surprised to hear that it's relatively rare and also pretty much equivalent to Reynolds 853.
So, since there aren't many bikes made from the stuff I thought a thread about this steel and the steads made from it could be of interest.
Pictures and contributions all welcome. Cheers! Tom
