Frame tubing: Reynolds 531ST

Wheel size: 700C
This is a truly excellent all out Condor touring frame built I think by Dave Yates for Condor. Its built from Reynolds 531 ST tubing and has all the necessary braze-ons for serious touring – two sets bottle cage bosses, rear rack bosses, cantilever/Vbrake bosses and mudguard eyelets. The paint is in very good/excellent condition with just a few marks. £225

Hawkes was an East London framebuilder and shop. This frame has been built with Nervex Pro lugs which have been filed beautifully thin.

Despite its name this frame is not French – Fern Cycles in Leicester used Velos Fougere as their brand name. Fern in French is Fougere... This is a rather nice road/time trial from the late 70s/early 80s. The paint is in very good condition with just a few small marks but the top tube has a small dent on one side where a handlebar has come round and hit – this will not affect the strength or stiffness of the frame... With horizontal dropouts its easily used as a fixed or singlespeed conversion. £89

This E G Bates road frame from the 1980s is in very sound condition with attractive though not perfect paint. It has a small dent to one seatstay but the I have checked the frame alignment and it is is fine. It would make a very easy fixed/singlespeed conversion £74

George Elrick was a frame framebuilder from Stirling in Scotland who was building frames from the 1930s through to the 1970s. More on George Elrick can be found at http://www.framebuilders.toucansurf.com/george-elrick-lowerbridgestree.htm This frame dating from the late 1950s/early 1960s is really rather nice with an exceptionally nicely executed fork crown. Its built with Nervex Pro lugs and Reynolds 531 double butted tubing. The paint is in very poor condition and the frame also had a stuck seat tube when I got it – this has been successfully removed. It can easily be used as a singlespeed or fixed conversion. £69
