It’s a Ribble and I think it’s 853.
1” head tube // st 58 c-t-c // tt 57.5 c-t-c
The seat cluster is delicate and had fractured on the seat tube (repaired with an alloy sleeve internally) when I got it. I removed the sleeve, took the paint off roughly to see what else was damaged, then put it all to one side.
I believe it’s an easy repair for a kitchen frame builder but after staring at it for years, I realise I am never going to get it repaired and build another bike I won’t ride (even if I finish it).
Collect from Tooting Bec or convince me to wear it into central London : )
