Anyone got any previous knowledge of Dave Yates M Steels builds? I have a 531c frameset from 1985. Its had a cheapo single colour respray and no decals so it doesn't look too cool. I've been using it as a winter trainer so haven't bothered too much about kitting it out with any decent components. Its my first steel road frame so i cant compare it to anything else in terms of feel. Tbh i would say handling wise it was a bit underwhelming. Maybe due to geometry?
Anyway, opinions on whether i should get rid for something more exciting or is it a keeper to hang some decent components from?
