I am selling my lovely 80's steel Witcomb racing frame. It is of usual Witcomb high quality with lovely lug work. The frame is in great condition with no dents or dings. The paint is non original and is a little tatty with some chips in the usual places, chain stays and drop outs, it is totally serviceable as is but could be refinished if you wish. All the threads are perfect and look like the frame has actually had very little use. I bought it off a collector who had it in dry storage for a number of years.
Frame details are:
Seat tube (centre to top): 54.5cm
Top tube (centre to centre): 56cm
Head tube 13.5cm
Front drop out spacing: 100mm
Rear drop out spacing: 126mm
Campagnolo drop outs
Gear shifter bosses brazed onto down tube
Gear cable guides on top of bottom bracket (Campagnolo)
Rear mech braze on
Brake cable guides on top of top tube
Water bottle bosses on down tubeI am sure you know about Witcomb but for those who don't there is much more information on classic lightweights. Needless to say they were extremely well respected frame builders the world over and were based in Deptford SE London.
