• That actually look well specced despite being a run-of-the-mill frame.

    Panaracer Pasela in 25c (or 28c).

    Cheers for the tyre recommendation. To be fair, it doesn't weigh too much, and although i've had a quick search on the web, I can't find any details regarding the original spec of the bike. I suspect the wheels have been upgraded though. It has some nice touches too, like the cable routing through the frame and fluted seat post. Also, it has elliptical shaped Biopace chain rings, which I guess were a fad at the time to improve efficiency??
