  • Custom built Elsworth, near perfect - just needs a clean.

    Rough sizing 54cm (possibly 52cm even) - will get tape measure out shortly.
    Reynolds 753 inluding forks - unsure if forks are threaded as it's not a quill stem fitted.
    Mixture of SHimano 600 and Compagnolo components
    Funky stem with the logo ART on it
    Sella Italia saddle
    Mavic Mach 2 CD 2 - Tubs - laced to Campagnolo hubs (but which ones, I'm unsure of)

    Hmu if you have any questions.

    Posted or collected from Poole/Bournemouth

  • Looks like a 52 to me and yes, fork is threaded

  • Those are C-record hubs. Nice bike and fair price! Glws

  • That's funny, I've got a set of wheels built by that "G. Proud" person of Kendall Cycles, came on a Dynatech I bought from someone in Manchester... GLWS.

  • Hey guys

    Thanks for the input :) size is definitely 52cm, both top tube and seat tube!

    It is lovely but today I got a puncture on front wheel lol

  • I'd possibly take the wheels off you.

  • I've had enquiries but the wheels and erryting are still here apart from bottle cages!

  • Ill have the Handlebars if still available

  • Hey, possibly interested in f+f and other bits pending size confirmation with the person who would be riding the bike.

  • Hi! I might be interested in f+f. Would use as a single speed conversion to replace current f+f that are pretty worse for wear.

    A few qs:

    1. No headset left? (Assuming it is 1" headset if forks are threaded as I think that is always the case?)

    2. Just wondering about fit... Can I ask how tall you are? (Assuming it was yours.) I'm 5ft5 - my current frame is 55cm c-c but it's a bit larger than ideal.

    3. How old is the frame?

    Thanks!

  • Hi @Ktoast - I've just sent you a pm :)

    but FYI everyone else, no headset and yes forks are 1" threaded and I've still got the converter if anyone wanted to grab that when taking the frame.

    I am 5ft9 and the frame fit really well apart from the long stem which meant I was a bit stretched. I think it'd be ideal if I had a normal 110m stem for me personally.

    Frame was made in mid 90's.

  • Frame and forks are now sold - many thanks
