I've got a very tasty Harry Quinn road frame for sale.
It's built from Reynolds 653 tubing and is therefore nice and featherweight.
Genuine handbuilt frame - number stamped on bb shell seems to be Q1138.
Seat-tube = 58cm c-t
Top-tube = 56 c-c
Rear spacing = 126mm but can* easily* accomodate modern 130mm axels
Seat post = 27.2
This is a very, very nice frame with what seems to be an original paint scheme and original decals. Lovely tight angles, beautiful lugged fork etc..
There are one or two parts of fairly intense rust, principally on the rear brake bridge and the drive-side rear stay (see photos). However I've had these looked over by several mechanics and a frame builder an am assured the frame is 100% structurally sound. Other than that, the frame is in very passable condition, and in many ways I feel it would be a shame to re-spray, given the frankly awesome blue and white fade currently found on the frame!
Anyway this is brilliant frame from British frame-building legend and is yours for a mere £SOLD collected from Green Lanes (N4 1JX)
