For Sale: Freddie Grubb project

Posted on
  • For sale, nice old Freddie Grubb frame in need of repair. I bought this on eBay in Nov 2007, used for several years used as a fixed gear commuter until one of the fork dropouts broke when I hit a pothole. I assume it could be repaired by a framebuilder, but it was always a bit small for me so I'd like to pass it on as a project (sold as seen, obviously). Or you could get some cheap 27" forks to go with the frame.

    I think it's pretty with lovely fancy lugs and a slightly faded & scuffed up purple and yellow paintjob, although if you were getting the fork repaired you might want to respray the whole thing at the same time. It has the Holdsworth-built 1956-1963 Freddie Grubb headbadge http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nkilgariff/FGimages/badges/FHG.jpg, but the later crossed-flags decal on the seattube (probably an incorrect replacement at some point).

    Seattube is 22.5" c-c, 23" c-t. Top-tube is 22".

    £50 ONO, ideally collected from Stoke Newington or Herne Hill, or possibly somewhere on my route between them ( eg. Liverpool St / Farringdon / London Bridge).
