I bought this off ebay as a full bike a little while ago because I wanted the wheels. It was a bit of a bad purchase in the end because the wheels had a knackered rear rim. Anyway, I'm selling the frame set which was listed as an RJ Quinn of Liverpool. The guy said he bought it as a Harry Quinn but then found out it was an RJ Quinn. I'm not sure how he found this out, and I've not gone to any length to find out it's origin, I just need to sell it on now.
Tubing: Reynolds 531
Seat Tube: 57cm ctt
Top Tube: 57cm ctc
Rear Spacing: 120mm
Lug set & BB Shell: Nervex Professional
Seatpost size: Takes a 27.0 but I think it originally took a 27.2 but has been crimped a little.
With the horizontal dropouts and 120mm rear spacing it's perfect for fixed/ss conversion. It's quite a nice frame, with lovely Nervex lugs & bb, campag dropouts front & rear and some ok chrome in parts. The brazing on the rear stays is poor but apart from that it's decent. Not sure what's happened with the paintwork, it looks like someone did half a job. It's full chrome underneath by the looks of things so could be an interesting project. There are a few tiny dings on the top tube and the chainstay has had a bit of chain rub but it's straight and true.
I'm looking for £80 for the frame, forks & headset. Collection from Newington Green, N1 would be preferred but I could consider posting.
