Lovely - too big for me but just to say I knew Norman - he built several frames for me when I was racing back in the 80's - would love to own another one day....

Now you tell me! Ha.
With a heavy heart my Walvale porteur has to go, not enough space in the flat with the arrival of a new project.
The frame itself is Reynolds 531c, seat tube is 58 ctc and top tube is 56 ctc. It features internal cable routing in the top tube and also in the down tube, through the chainstay, and out near the rear derailleur for elegant routing. Takes a 27.4 seatpost. The original sale thread can be seen here, before I built it up. The group is mainly Campagnolo Chorus 1998 (9sp) which hopefully you can see I've enjoyed sourcing in it's project thread. The rack bag pictured isn't for sale unfortunately.
