For Sale: NOS Rotrax Vel D'Hiv (Late 1940s/Early 50s)

I have for sale my NOS Rotrax Vel D'Hiv
It is from the late 1940s/early 50s and is totally NOS.
The lugs and their linings are amazing and so is the paint finish, a very nice deep black.
It is made from early reynolds 531 tubing and is quite light.
ST: 57.5cm
TT: 56cm
It is drilled front and rear.
Really regretting selling this but I feel I will never be able to do it justice and source the build it truly deserves, but hopefully someone on here will be able to.
It has a couple of small chips and scratches and no headbage from storage and I have tried to highlight these in the photos.

A portion of the sale will go to the forum.
Any questions do not hesitate to ask.
