For Sale: Mal Rees Reynolds 531/Campagnolo frameset

SOLD

Bought this a while ago and it has served me well as a kind of beater-plus; now needs a new home. It's a full-531 frameset ideally ready for 27-inch wheels, but will run 700s with long drop brakes or, as I preferred it, with mudguards for wet winter months. I have some good long drop calipers I can chuck in for a beer.

It was restored a while ago with an off-white powdercoat and repro decals and although there are chips and marks aplenty it's in decent enough fettle to carry on as is. Of course what it really wants is a full resto with period bits, or maybe an hour or two with a touch up pen.

Dropouts are Campagnolo and it has a Tange headset fitted up (although it's a bit sticky so expect to have it apart to service or maybe replace). Threads are English and good, bottom bracket is 68mm.

Centre-to-centre measurement for seat tube is 60cm, top tube is 57. Will check seatpost diameter this evening and will also get some pictures up. Will make a nice build for someone on here I hope - would be a shame to send to eBay.

Looking for £65. Collection Richmond or Teddington please. Dibs and PM to secure. Thanks all.

Damn this would be perfect for me, if only i were taller (174cm)

pictures? Im looking for a cheap but nice frame for a freind and this sounds nice

Interested, are there any photos?

Thanks for the interest. Pics later as mentioned above - need to get home to do it (stole a moment at work to get the ad up y'see...).

Sorry for the delay. Here's one of the pics, will get the rest up later:

Just realised there's a bottom bracket in there too, which will be sold with the frame. I think that's a Tange too (like the headset) but will check tonight. Please assume that also needs a look. More later...

hi mate, i am interested in buying this frame. as i am a new user i cannot PM yet (i signed up just to send this message)

Right, pictures as promised ages ago:

Just checked bottom bracket and can't see any recognisable branding, so anyone's guess who made that. It does turn freely though and, like the headset, I suspect will be fine with a little service.

pm sent

Is this frame still available?

Flippin heck that's a bloody BARGAIN!

Too big otherwise I'd take it for a rainy day.

Yep, still available. Skully, thanks for the kind words - I'm quite attached to this frame and would much rather see it go to someone on here than send it off to eBay...

I'm new so can't pm you yet, but here is my email: jchadwick92@hotmail.co.uk

potential dibs...

Dibs and PM'd

And sold.
