Right, this is LARGE!

24.5" seat tube and 23.5" top tube

41.5" wheelbase but surprisingly close clearances for the period.

531, long Campag ends etc...

Appropriate braze ons and hanger for rear centre pull brake, really nice detailing.

I gathered all the parts to build this - Mafac centre pulls, Stronglight 49D, Nuovo record changers - but I am only 5'10" - this needs a TALL person...

Could even be a great period 'cross bike!

Not been built up since painted in classic GB white with red - what else could I do?

A lovely frame from GB's heyday...

Looking for £195 - I will be making a loss at that!

You will probably notice I have been listing a few things here - I have ended up with quite a few frames etc I am just never going to use - better they go to folks who will use them!

...and LFGSS folks seem to be those people!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
