Selling my pride and joy - really need some extra cash and I'm wanting to get back into fixed riding.
hillary stone said of the work on these frames - "beautifully built from Reynolds 853 tubing. Paul Donohue’s works built all the Team Brite frames and they employed a tig welder who was truly superb - in my opinion he was just as good as the tig welders at Merlin who I had seen working back in 1994"
the clearance on the frames is really tight (only a 23mm tyre can fit on the rear) and a lovely fast and nippy ride.
Condition is good but could really do with a full service as there is a loose bearing in the spok' and the shifting when in the smaller ring struggles when you go to the smaller sprockets. I have already factored this into the price and the bike is perfectly rideable now. The frame also has a dent on the driveside chain stay where someone has crimped it to take a longer crank arm but I've ridden it around fine and should be completely sound.
The paint has shown no chipping and is hard as nails. some cosmetic damage to the spok' mainly due to loose pebbles and the age of the wheel.
