CLAUD BUTLER No23 INTERNATIONAL PATH TRACK FRAME 1949
Seat Tube (ctt): 57cm (22.5in), (centre to top of top tube) 56cm (22in)
Top Tube (ctc): 58cm (23in)
Rear dropout width: 110mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C with brake drop of 48mm
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
This is a stunningly gorgeous Claud Butler lugless track frame dating from 1949. This was built as a pure track frame – not a road/track – there are no mudguard eyes and the clearances are tight, the rear brake bridge has never been drilled. There is a little very light pitting in places but nothing that won’t be easily filled when the frame is painted. This will be one dramatic frame once refinished properly. £195

NONAME TRACK FRAME c1980s
Seat Tube (ctt): 56cm (22in)
Top Tube (ctc): 56cm (22in)
Rear dropout width: 110mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C
Seatpost size: 27.0mm
This is really nice track frame from I think the 1980s judging by the components. It has Suntour track rear dropouts for a 10mm axle (standard track rear) spaced at 110mm - this is really unusual and generally only found on Keirin track frames of this period. I can get the rear ends respaced at the standard 120mm if required. It is not drilled for a brake at the front or rear - it would be very easy to have the front fork drilled if necessary. This is clearly a pure close clearance track frame. £225

M STEEL ROAD FRAME c1990
Seat Tube (ctt): 53cm (21in)
Top Tube (ctc): 53cm (21in)
Rear dropout width: 128mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C with brake drop of 50mm
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531C
This M Steel frame (it had M Steel decals and is numbered MS107) dates from about 1990 and was built at the time when Dave Yates ran the framebuilding shop for Steels. It had a stuck seatpost which has been successfully removed. The frame is in very sound condition and would make a great Audax frame - it has close clearances for guards with tyres up to 25mm but with horizontal dropouts it will make a very easy conversion to singlespeed or fixed. £85

ORBIT AMERICA ROAD FRAME c1990
Seat Tube (ctt): 57cm (22.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 57cm (22.25in)
Rear dropout width: 128mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C with brake drop of 45mm
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531C
This Orbit America dates I think from the late 1980s and is in very good condition - the paint has some marks but nothing too obtrusive. It will make a very easy conversion to singlespeed or fixed. £95

HOLDSWORTH PROFESSIONAL ROAD FRAME c1990
Seat Tube (ctt): 58cm (23in)
Top Tube (ctc): 56.5cm (22.25in)
Rear dropout width: 128mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C with brake drop of 45mm
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531C
This is one of the last Holdsworth Professional frames built from probably 1990 - its in very good condition and with horizontal dropouts will make a very easy conversion to singlespeed or fixed. £95

GRAHAM WEIGH ROAD FRAME
Seat Tube (ctt): 57cm (22.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 55.5cm (21.75in)
Rear dropout width: 130mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C with brake drop of 48mm
Seatpost size: 26.8mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531 double butted
This Graham Weigh road frame is in very sound condition albeit with slightly tatty paint and is built from Reynolds 531 tubing. However it would make an excellent fixed or singlespeed conversion. £85

DAWES GALAXY TOURING FRAME
Seat Tube (ctt): 56cm (22in)
Top Tube (ctc): 58cm (23in)
Rear dropout width: 124mm
Wheel size: 27s or Sprints/700C with brake drop of 60mm
Frame tubing: Reynolds 531
Seatpost size: 27.2mm
This older Dawes Galaxy frame from around 1980 is in very sound condition but the paint is somewhat worn and retouched. The Dawes Galaxy was one of the first production frames in the UK and was looked upon as offering a really good loaded ride. It could easily be used as a singlespeed or fixed conversion. £49

CARRERA ROAD FRAME 1990s Reynolds 501
Seat Tube (ctt): 58cm (23in)
Top Tube (ctc): 57cm (22.5in)
Rear dropout width: 130mm
Wheel size: Sprints/700C (brake drop 46mm)
Frame tubing: Reynolds 501
Seatpost size: 27.0mm
This Carrerra road frame from the early 1990s is in superb condition - there are just a few small marks to the paint and decals.. It would make a cool fixed or singlespeed conversion. £85

DAWES ROAD FRAME 1970s/80s
Seat Tube (ctt): 59cm (23.5in)
Top Tube (ctc): 58cm (23in)
Rear dropout width: 124mm
Wheel size: 27s or 700C with brake drop of 65mm
Seatpost size: 26.4mm
Frame Tubing: Reynolds 531
This Dawes road frame from the late 1970s/early 1980s is in very nice condition and will make a great budget conversion. £65

PEUGEOT 531 TRIATHLON ROAD FRAME c1989
Seat Tube (ctc): 58cm (23in)
Top Tube (ctc): 58cm (23in)
Rear dropout width: 128mm
Wheel size: 700C/sprints with brake drop of 50mm
This Peugeot Triathlon road frame built from Reynolds 531 tubing is in very good sound condition. It will make an ideal winter or trainer bike with gears - the vertical dropouts make it unsuitable for use as a singlespeed or fixed conversion. £79

Lovvvely fillet brazed claud butler there!

Is there any chance of selling me that seat clamp off the Claud Butler separately? - been looking for one for ages (frame is not my size)

Really like the DAWES ROAD FRAME 1970s/80s, gotta check bank but provisional dibs!

Dibs on the CLAUD BUTLER No23 !

How do I pay for the frame?

Shipping to NY for the Orbit?

S/F,
CEYA!

HOLDSWORTH, is it still avail? dibs if so

Hilary - did my message re. the Orbit America come through OK? No sign of it in my "Sent Items" folder but definitely interested in the frame if unsold. Otherwise, do you have something of pretty much identical price, spec, condition and size. Frame without fork would be better still as I have a Time carbon one awaiting a frame to fit it to.

Many thanks,
David

did the dawes galaxy sell?
