hi, This is a Romany sports (from Ad van Overveld, Zegge, Holland) frame and fork set.
The reason that this brand is allowed to sport the 'arc-en-ciel' world champ's colors is that Huub Maas won the world duathlon (run/bike/run) title in 2002 on a Romany.
I don't know what tubing it's made of but it is a nicely built frame, ideally to be set up as a sports/touring bike with a 'racey' geometry: it's sized 61cm c-t and 55.5cm c-c. It has fender eyelets. There's some scruffs on the frame but it still looks nice. No rust, dings or dents.
85 EUROS posted to the UK

For the same price you can have this complete bike (60 c-t and 56 c-c): a simple but nice Giant Racer (but with a white turbo instead of that black rolls saddle and without pedals)
It's a budget racer with Suntour crankset, Cherry brakes, nice concave Weinmann rims, SR (i think) stem and bars, just run-of-the-mill but sturdy stuff. Only the back brake needs some tlc.
