For Sale: Dave Russel road frame - great paint job - 59.5x57

~~Hi,A bit heart breaking, but it needs to go, my good old Dave Russel.
I used it in its original paint job for a while before taking it to Witcomb. Barry did a bit of work on the frame (re-tracking, making the rear brake bridge compatible with recessed bolt, repair of one of the seat stays that had a little crack) and he took it to colourtech for a total re-spray...
I used it as a road bike since but did not do much riding on it so the paint is still prety much immaculate. Any little scratch that happened since (tiny usual spots from normal use, very very few of them) have been touched up using the little pot of paint provided by colourtech, there is plenty left so this will be added with the frame, along with Witcomb paper work.
Nice frame, lovely ride, 531 awesome, Campagnolo forged dropouts and fork ends, bla bla etc...
Measurements:
-Seat Tube, centre to centre: 59.5cm
-Top Tube, centre to centre: 57cm
Pictures, frame only first (the bottom pictures show the colour the best), then built as I used to ride it, with 700c wheels with 20c tyres.
Price: £165 (stronglight headset included)
[edit] Sorry for not mentionning that earlier, London collection only please, won't post this...

SOLD TO DotDamsell - Nice to meet you Matt!

Pretty.

Simple and amazing!
Shame it's to big for me.

Promotional BUMP

Can include more than just the headset if it helps whoever would be interested in building the frame:
-Long reach tecktro calipers (pair, cable adjuster missing but it's not too hard to find) the ones on the picture of the bike built: £Free
-Downtube shifter band on, shimano 600 (as in picture or very similar, need to go through my boxes: £Free
-Pair of 27X1/4 wheels (pretty sure the frame can take 27 as well as 700c), alloy rims laced to campagnolo hubs, freewheel 6 speeds, could do with a relacing or changing couple of spokes, brand new continental tyres. I wanted to keep that set of wheels as a spare for my Mercian touring bike, but if someone is interested in the frame and need wheels I will let them go for £20 (but won't sell them on their own)
