So, I'm finally conceding that I'm never going to get around to this. I always wanted a Clements Falcon hence holding onto this frame (bought as a full bike but parts not very interesting as I remember) for years. I've always known it was too small for me...perhaps you can give it the care and attention (I think, at least) it deserves? All the classic 60s/70s Falcon features in place: tapered pencil stays, wrap over seat tube, nice geo and fork crown, Nervex lugs and handsome enamel (not foil) badge. It's obviously not had a great repsray but its not crude brush-on - you can see where I've started to scrap back to the blue / contrast red colour scheme underneath that is also classic Falcon of this era - but it needs stripping and starting again I'd say. Also, some rust that needs treating/assessing but it looks ok to me...condition is 'barn' but no dents / all looks straight etc. I haven't got the tools to remove the BB so don't know if that'll resist. It has downtube pump bosses so more likely a touring model. It's not a top level San Remo for sure but its a decent frame and would make a nice bike if you can do the work, and its free. It's in Dalston, happy if you want to come take a look / ask me for more photos. I've uploaded a batch here: https://imgur.com/a/NBgFrtU
Measurements:
Seat tube: 55cm ctc
Top tube: 56 ctc
Gone to @woodenfrog

Formatting Help
Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.
Tips:
Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----
To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word
To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word
Embed images by entering: ![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png) That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.
* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks
1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot
> Quote text by starting lines with >
Mention another user by @username
For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:
```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
