    ^ To get a definate answer on whether it's a quinn, it may be worth contacting this blogger http://merseysidebicycles.blogspot.co.uk/
    A serial number is almost essential when trying to id a bike frame, you'll probably find one on the bottom bracket , seat clamp lug or rear dropout. There should also be one on the fork steerer tube.

    Thanks for the feedback Rik, I'll try the other site as you suggested.
    There is a serial number of 481 stamped on the underside of the BB but that's about all there is to distinguish it.

    My father had this frame about 30 years ago and thought it to be an RJ Quinn.
    I subsequently got it resprayed by Quinn's in Liverpool 20 years ago when he passed away and added braze ons for the down tube gear leavers, however I don't think this is a Quinn frame due to the style of lugs used and also I don't think the tubs are butted. Any ideas or thoughts would be much appreciated.
