Anyone Heard of Youngs?

Cool to read that people have ridden these frames. Pap says the frame cost him £300 back in the day, which suggests that it was considered a good enough make in its time (what's £300 with inflation added?).

dogsballs if you were to go slowly, using a block of wood, that bend could hammer out. worth a try, can't get worse.

I was tempted by this idea, but I don't know enough about steel to know if it'd be okay or not. I guess my logic is that if i'm going to respray it, I might as well fork out the extra to get it profesionally sorted. I'd also like to get someone to have a check all around - my eye isn't keen enough yet to tell if any other parts are wonky...
