cinelli made BB shells that many framebuilders bought, i had a british built reynolds frame with a cinelli bb shell, which i thought was a little odd. That one is nicer, looks like it has holes to let water out and a flap to stop puddle splashes?
it sounds like you should just keep the bike, you've put a lot of time and effort into getting it exactly how you want it. Maybe eat pasta and pesto for a month?
Thank you very much for your kind words I have spent alot of time on it and it was at bob jacksons for nearly two months getting sorted as they do such a brilliant job and take their time to do it right, do you think it looks crap like someone else has allegedly made out earlier I think it looks tonnes better thanks again

I wouldn't say it looks crap, but taking the stickers off the wheels would improve it
as for other parts, that's a personal thing. Can't go wrong with black and silver everything in my opinion

Wayne as others have said nothing odd about it,that frame has prugnat lugs ,cinelli cast bb , tecnociclo drop outs.All nice kit and well put together in Birmingham Redfern road at the time,again its a nice frame shame you have to sell it.Autostrada made all of ribbles frames ,up to 25 a week at one point.

Can you please tell me what you think is wrong with it??, I know ive took the pictures off of here but ive had many folk say it looks a lot better than what it did before, it was in a right state when I bought it and I think Bob Jackson did an excellent job with the frame, it looks far better in real life the pics dont do it justice!!, hey ok its got straight bars on but at the end of the day they are just bars!!, maybe your a purist id like to know what you find so disturbing about it
ive decided not to sell it anyway, ill just keep it and ride in next summer any other thoughts would be appreciated, I think it looks much better now than it did anyone agree with me obviously I aint got a crankset or chain on there yet
No, the frame and fork looks great, the build isn't my thing though. Good on you for keeping it, maybe consider building it up geared like it was, it'd look stunning.
