    653 low pro tt single speed ,mavic , campagnolo
    Went to my mate bike shop and met a chap who's dad built this bike some years ago, I said I would try to sell it for him for a discount on another bike he wont's shot of .

    Here goes

    Its a Reynolds 653 tt frame with internal cabling , lovey lug work and a hexagon bottom bracket shell first time I've see this! So unique in my experience. No rust or chips , paint work 99% perfect one tiny blemish by the seat post ...storage mark ! Likely t cut away . The decals are not original he found them some where and put them on because thay match the colour scheme , nothing stealth about this bike lol . Decals are on top of the clear coat so will come of if you wonted a clean finish . The chap who built this was a engineer who built a number lovely bikes in spare time and need more space and coin for projects.
    Spec
    653 frame 54cm BB to the hight of the top tube , top tube 54cm
    So a medium frame .

To be honest i have never noticed it when riding. i keep my brake pads fairly tight to the rim and haven't had it rub,
