• I have a few too many frames, and decided to have a a bit of a clear down.

    First up is a 54cm Falcon Shane Sutton special edition. It is a gas pipe edition, with a few rust spots on the red paint, but noting detrimental to it's health. I use this one as my beater / commuter.

    Next is a 53cm Freddie Grubb. I bought this one the faith that it was a Grubb frame I have no reason to disbelieve the gentleman, but it has no headbadge or decals to verify it's true identity. It looks like it has been hand painted in blue by a previous owner. It is more than likely 531 tubing, but cannot confirm other than it is much lighter than the Falcon frame.

    Lastly is a 53cm Carlton 1960/61 frame with Capella lugs. This seems to have it's original blue paint, it isn't perfect but it is perfectly presentable. There is a slight ding on the top tube just behind the headtube. Again more than likely 531 tubing.

    I am after £30 each plus £5 courier charge. All have headset but no BB's..

    Photobucket and my Mac are having a tiff at the moment, but as soon as they work it out I will throw in some pics. If you are impatient, like me, drop me your email and I will send you over the images.

    Any questions, just holla.

  • Do you know what the top tube measurements are?

  • I am going to pop to the 'cave' this afternoon, so I will get the measurements of the TT on all frames.

    Matt

  • More info and shots of the Grubb and Carlton

    Grubb TT - CC 54.5cm, there are some serial numbers stamped underneath the BB but cannot make them out unless I scratch off the paint.





    Carlton - TT CC=55cm. Serials on BB - 5181, rear dropouts - Cyclo H4044
