For Sale: Geoffrey Butler, Shimano 105 & Mavic rims. Circa 1988

Geoffrey Butler Minerva Super, circa 1988. SOLD

Centre to top seat tube = 58cm
Centre to centre seat tube = 56.5cm
Centre to centre top tube = 55.5cm

Shimano 105 (FC 1050, date stamped 1988), hubs, headset, crankset, pedals, callipers, slr brake levers, indexed gear shifters, front and rear derailleurs.
Mavic MA eyeletted rims. ITM stem and bars wrapped in Benotto tape. Fluted seatpost with an Icaselle saddle.

Chrome is good on the forks an imo it's in great condition and very original, even down to the Shimano slr outer cable. It does have a few small chips, could do with a front tyre, but it all works as is.

If you want to see it or have any questions, just ask.
SOLD can post if required. (Will make contribution to forum if it sells here)

Any interest on the weekend, I've got a groupset to fund type bump

Reduced to £199.

whats the tubing? columbus? Are the wheels clinchers?

When I tried to find out about the frame myself, I had an email from Hilary Stone, he said it weighed as much as Columbus Aelle.

Yes the rims take clincher tyres.

what does the tubing sticker say?
and what's the seatpost size?

nice looking bike

The sticker says "Tubi Speciali In Acciaio, Minerva Belgium"
The seatpost says 26.6mm
Cheers.
