I bought this on here not that long ago. It’s beautiful, made in Crewkerne Somerset in 1980 by one of the greatest British framebuilders, but I only have room for one fixie and I’m very upset to say that I’m keeping the practical one.
It’s 56cm square centre to centre and ding and dent free as far as I can tell. 531 Pro according to the Reynolds sticker, though it looks like this was put on after a respray so we must trust the integrity of the painter. The paint is ok but there is a fair bit of patina. Maybe another respray will be in order a few years down the line.
I’d like to sell it with the Dura Ace 7710 crankset (bit tatty, 105 BB I think, matching 50t chainring in vgc), wheelset/tyres (hard ano Open Pro CD on old style single fixed Primato hubs, excellent condition with only very light evidence of braking in the front from when I took it into the Mendips) and Tange headset. I can sell it as pictured here in skidder mode with or without a brake or just as a rolling chassis and drivetrain.
For this I’d like £440, collected in Bristol BS5. I don’t want to either split or post for now, but I will if I have to further down the line.
Have a bump for a lovely frame. Almost tempted to buy it back! 😉

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 >

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

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