Wanted: small audax / light tourer frame

Hi all,

Looking for a 48 / 49 cm frame for my girlfriend. (Top tube can be a bit longer: up to 55ish).
Ideally would like steel tubing, 700c, horizontal tt, mudguard eyelets, rack mounts, and clearance enough for some schwalbe marathons.

Budget: £200

Might consider whole bike, but mainly after frame only.
Please let me know what you've got / what you've seen.

Thanks!

Ribble audax will tick all of them wont it?

I have an orbit america frame

531c

*49 ST CtC but with a 54/55 tt

Its in the *attic just now , but I think there are some pics on the site from previous attempts to sell it

Won't take mudguards, other than race blades, but is fast and comfortable with no overlap..

The attic is in E10.

I have a nice old gitane frame but it in need of some TLC.

Its the same frame as on this bike. But it could do with a paintjob. It has had some canti studs brazed on.

I have a nice Ron Cooper, 48 / 49 that is taking up some space. It would be lucky to have done 100 miles in the 12 years I have owned it.

Fillet brazed. no mudguard eyelets, some scratches.

Thanks all.

The Ribble is perfect spec-wise, but made of aluminum, and therefore has been deemed not pretty enough!

Is there a popular steel-tubed equivalent?

The dream looks like this, but small:
