I really like the Flying Scot frames and history/reputation (http://www.theflyingscot.com/) , but they do seem to have pretty relaxed geometry until the 70s. Nice for a relaxing pleasure cruise, but not for traffic riding.
BTW - I'm trying to find out if there's a rule of thumb to work out if a vintage frame is likely to be for 27" or 700c. For example, I assume British bikes such as the Flying Scot would use 27" until at least the mid 70s?
