24 1/2" (531ST butted throughout) touring frame from 1980s.

Seat tube 62cm c-t 60.5cm c-c
Top Tube 58.5cm c-c
126 OLD rear spacing
Capag 1010 dropouts

Straight with all threads good but cosmetically challenged with some surface rust. Has mudguard eyelets and brase-ons for a rear rack, one bottle cage and a pip to locate band on down tube levers.

Made for 27" wheels but 700c work fine as in pictures (wheels not included).

Comes with SR Laprade fluted seat post (27.0 I think and moving freely), bottle cage, Wienman centre-pulls which will do 27" or 700c, a Tange Allez headset which is good except for a rusted lock nut and a freecycle stem/bars/lever combo.

Gives a very comfortable ride. Was bicycle of the year in 1983. I believe it is the same frame as a Holdsworth Mistral so can be refinished as either. I recently had one painted by Mario Vaz and for an extra £20 could have had canti bosses added.

Looking for £70 collected from Herne Hill - Sold Now

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
