This was my very first project here on LFGSS and has served me very very well and didn't want to sell as it has a place in my heart.
But it's too big (size 58) and other projects see more use than this.
I had it repainted by Mario Vaz in flamboyant red and have it built in full Shimano Golden Arrow groupset except for the BB which is a threadless YST (as threads need redo) which has served for years with no problems.
Everything else is Shimano Golden Arrow, and some part where NOS on it (brake levers for sure and they haven't seen much use as they came quite late after the build)
Proper commuting/touring/do it all bike.
It has VO mudguards,mint Brooks saddle which still hasn't worn in, Allez! (Holdsworth own brand) pump and can't remember the rest.
Of course paint has got some chips, but they were covered with the bit of paint Mario gave me.
If you look, you'll find them. Schwalbe Marathon tyres for a trouble-less ride.

Price: £350, but open to near offers but I think it's good price as it is.
