Hi everyone,
I’ve just sorted out another lot of interesting and bargain frames together with large budget bike. Shipping on frames within the UK will be £11 - other items can ship free of charge in the same box. I can ship anywhere in the world at a reasonable cost.
ALL ITEMS ARE IN BRISTOL
Unless specifically described I do not guarantee headsets or BBs which are fitted to frames. With all frames I can fit headsets or BBs - headset fitting costs £12; please see my latest headset thread:
http://www.lfgss.com/thread53572.html
for details of what is available.
Payment can be via bank transfer (preferred), cheque or the dreaded Paypal which costs me 3%…
** If you dib an item, please PM me and pay the same day unless you make other arrangements with me. Otherwise it may well be sold to the next person who wants it...**
Viewing/Personal collection is welcome as quite a few have found and have been able to get other parts they are looking for at the same time.

UNKNOWN MAKER ROAD FRAME 1950s Attractively filed and thinned lugs
Seat Tube (ctc): 56cm (22in)
Top Tube (ctc): 56cm (22in)

Seatpost size: 27.0mm
This frame from the 1950s has lots of really nice little details and beautifully filed and thinned lugs. I do not know who the builder was and if it was not for the fact that the BB threads are English I might have thought this frame was French. Whatever it’s a nice quality frame built from double butted tubing which would make a cool fixed or singlespeed conversion. £75
RUSS ROAD FRAME 1930s/40s
Seat Tube (ctt) : 58cm (23in)
Top Tube (ctc): 56.5cm (22.25in)

Wheel size: 27s or Sprints/700C (brake drop of approx 58mm)
Bottom bracket threads: British
Frame Tubing: Reynolds 531 double butted
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
Ernie Russ started building frames in the early 1930s - this frame I think is from the late 1930s or 1940s. Its in sound condition with some pitting but I do not think the forks are original. However its still an attractive frame that would make a very cool conversion to fixed or singlespeed. £65
PAT ROHAN ROAD FRAME 1970s Nervex Pro lugs

Top Tube (ctc): 55.5cm (21.75in)
Rear dropout width: 124mm
Wheel size: 27s or 700C with brake drop of 60mm
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 double butted
The Pat Rohan shop was in Pinner ( I believe it might still be there) and the frames in the 1970s and early 80s were built by Ron Thomas... This frame is in sound condition though the paint is poor. It is built from Reynolds 531 double butted tubing and has the chunky double taper seatstays that were were popular in the 1970s. It will make a very easy conversion. £59
STRATTON ROAD FRAME c1988
Seat Tube (ctt): 57cm (22.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 55.5cm (21.75in)
Rear dropout width: 128mm
Wheel size: 700C (brake drop 47mm)
Seatpost size: 27.0mm
Strattons are an old established shop (originally it was Claud Butlers main shop) and have had frames from a number of sources - this frame I do not think is one of the Bill Grey ones but it is nevertheless a rather nice late 80s frame. It has had a dent filled in the down tube and two small ones in the seatstays - hence it is only £69.
