HOLDSWORTH SUPER MISTRAL c1968
Seat Tube (ctt): 57cm (22.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 55.5cm (20in)
Rear dropout width: 122mm
Wheel size: 27in/700C
Brake drop with 700C: 59mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 double butted
Seatpost size 27.2mm
This Holdsworth Super Mistral almost certainly dates from 1967/8 – the frame number 35131 certainly suggests this period and 1967/8 were the first years for the Super Mistral model which differed from the Mistral by having a fully sloping fork crown. The quality of this frame is really nice – the seatstay wrapover is just gorgeous. This frame has been repainted but not very well and the top tube has a few small dents from what looks like things being dropped on it. However Super Mistral frames are not at all common and were for 1967 Holdsworth’s top frame. £95 SOLD

RALEIGH MIXTE c1970s

Top Tube (ctc): 55.5cm (21.75in)
Rear dropout width: 122mm
Wheel size: 27in/700C
Seatpost size: 25.4mm
This Raleigh mixte is very pretty and dates from the late 70s – the paint is not perfect - it has quite a number of marks etc but does look very presentable. £33

PEUGEOT ROAD/TOURING FRAME 1970s
Seat Tube (ctc): 24.5in (62cm)
Top Tube (ctc): 23.4in (59.5cm)
Rear dropout width: 122mm
Brake drop with 700C wheel: 63mm
Wheel size: 27in/700C
Peugeot made very nice cheaper road frames in the 1970s/80s - this one has some rather interesting lugs. The paint is in very sound useaable condition. The rear dropout width and horizontal dropouts make it an ideal candidate for a budget conversion to fixed or singlespeed. £33 **SOLD **

VISCOUNT ROAD FRAME c1974
Seat Tube (ctt): 58cm (23in)
Top Tube (ctc): 56.5cm (22.25in)
Rear dropout width: 120mm
Wheel size: 27in/700C
Frame tubing: Aerospace Cr-Mo
Brake drop with 700C/Sprint wheel: 27.0
Viscount frames from the 1970s were really quite far ahead of their times - they were fillet brazed from from good quality cro-mo steel tubing and were really rather nice. They incorporated advanced features such as a pressed in cartridge bearing BB. And originally were supplied with an aluminium fork which occasionally broke - this frame still has its original aluminium forks. This frame is one of the earlier Viscounts and is in very nice condition. £59

RUDGE CLUBMAN FRAME c1949
Seat Tube (ctt): 56cm (22in)
Top Tube (ctc): 55cm (21.5in)
Rear dropout width: 114mm
Wheel size: 27in/
Brake drop with sprints/700C: 58mm
Raudge Clubman frames were one one step up from the basic Raleigh Lenton model or its Rudge equivalent with cutaway lugs, slightly steeper frame angles and Reynolds 531 butted main tubes. This one has charming original paint though the forks may possibly not be original – they are however certainly Rudge forks... These are really underrated frames which ride nicely and make a great conversion. £45 SOLD

SUN ROAD FRAME 1950s
Seat Tube (ctt): 58cm (23in)
Top Tube (ctc): 55.5cm (21.75in)
Rear dropout width: 110mm
Wheel size: 27in/Sprints or 700C
Brake drop with 700C wheel: 60mm
Seatpost size 26.8mm
Sun were based in Birmingham when this frame was built in the late 1940s/early 1950s. Its in sound condition with the remains of its original paintwork. Would make an excellent beater or around town bike and would go unnoticed... £39 SOLD

EDDY MERCKX Early and rare! 1979
Seat Tube (ctc): 22in (56cm)
Top Tube (ctc): 22in (56cm)
Rear dropout width: 126mm
Frame Tubing: Columbus SL
Wheel size: 700C
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
This is one of the very first Eddy Merckx frames to come from Merckx’s own factory – it may indeed be early enough to have been built by De Rosa. The slotted bottom bracket and pressed lugs - especially the seat lug are all indicators of it being very early as are the Eddy Merckx signature seatstay caps and fork crown which has Eddy engraved on one side and Merckx on the other side. It has no number other than a 7 which indicate that it is a 57cm centre to top frame. But it is identical to another Merckx frame I have details of whose number was in the 700s... This frame has been repainted at the Merckx factory reasonably recently but has a number of mostly small marks. Early Merckx frames such as this are exceptionally rare and have a special charm that the later ones with all cast lugs and brackets simply do not have... £295 SOLD

PEUGEOT ROAD FRAME 1980s
Seat Tube (ctc): 21.5in (55cm)

Rear dropout width: 120mm
Brake drop with 700C wheel: 46mm
Wheel size: 700C
