• Sorry, no again: not even slightly a tourer, and not 54cm!
    To make things easier, here's a check list. If it doesn't tick all these boxes, then it isn't what I'm looking for:

    1. 54cm seat tube, ctc
    2. less than 56cm top tube ctc
    3. mudguard eyes front and rear
    4. braze ons for front (low rider) and rear pannier racks.
    5. steel
    6. for 700c wheels
    7. canti / v / disk brakes (ie not calliper)
    8. two pairs of bottle cage mounts.
    9. good threads / no structural damage (ie usable)
    10. clearances for 32mm tyres and mudguards

    This will be a dedicated long-distance tourer, so all of the above are essentials... I can't use an audax or cyclocross or rando frame, etc. for what I have in mind. Think Long Haul Trucker / Galaxy / Royal / xo-1 / etc: proper purpose-designed tourers.
