Belgian road frame as supplied to the shop in the seventies. From what I can gather the shop bought in "off the peg" frames which they badged as Plum(e)s to go along with their track frames and things...

...but I am sure you historians can help out here!

Anyway - 22.5" centre to top, 22" centre to centre and 39" wheelbase

Prugnat lugs, semi wrapover seatstays, flat fork crown and Gipiemme horozontal dropouts. I think it is 531 - but cannot swear to that. Big chunky Belgian forkblades though!

New Campag bottom bracket, Tange headset, seatbolt and bottle cage bolts

Not built up since being painted - does have a couple of chips but nothing some nail varnish will not sort out!

I managed to break off one of the dropout adjusting screws but I am sure I can get it out...

Looking for £125 - look at it like you are buying a headset, bottom bracket and paint - and getting a frame for free!

YIKES! wrong picture - I am keeping the Flandria - correct one coming up!

Saw the Plume (not pictured) last night.

It is truly a thing of great beauty. £125.00 is giving it away.

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:

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

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

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
