Hey man,

Just came across this thread (bump btw) - do you have any more info on frame material here? I have a near identical model (1981) and I'm keen to find out more.

I had one recently and sold it on here for £20.
They are not made from 531 tubing. They are not light frames. Poor paint adhesion, comparatively.
A fine product but nothing to get excited about really.

Yeah that's what I figured. Still, would make a nice SS!

Cheers for the info

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
