For the past few months I've been trying to convince myself that this wasn't too big for me, but alas, it is. It's a lovely fillet brazed frame in a super deep flam red colour, and when riding it fully loaded, the fillet brazing comes into it's own providing extra stiffness where needed.
Reynolds 653 tubing
62cm seat tube c-t and 60cm top tube c-c.

Braze-ons for 2 bottle cages, mudguards, rear pannier rack and a pump!
Bad bits. The only thing really is that the hole is the chainstay bridge has corroded a bit, ovalising the hole (see pic). Structurally this shouldn't affect anything, and with mudguards fitted it's un-noticeable. Other than this, for some reason the forks are a slightly different colour; they're a slightly more orangey red than the frame, although both frame and forks have a matching frame number (see pic).
Was £250, now £240 ono. It's at Fitzrovia Bicycles for anyone who wants a closer look. Dibs followed by PM.
