I’m In Abergavenny for a couple of days helping Jack Thurston sort out some bikes, frames and parts he’d like to sell to free up some space at home.
Most have been in storage for a while and will need a clean and a going over. Selling as projects, and as such, I think, fairly price.
The bike’s are strictly pick up only from Abergavenny. There’s a possibility the frames could be posted - will need to double check this. I am here all tomorrow sorting out more stuff, so can answer questions. After that, best I put you in touch with Jack. Probably best to pm me.
Might be a bit more added as we sift through.
There will obviously be a donation to the forum from sales.

Rourke stainless 953
Jack saw an imperfection in the paint on the top tube near the wrap over and so sanded back the paint. It’s inconclusive. Personally I don’t think it’s a crack - just looks like the braze to me. Though I’m not a frame builder. It’s insanely light. Come with Ambrosio hubs/rims

Ace. Any photos in the catalogues? Would love to see, if so.

I think that’s what were sent to H Lloyd?

@Mat-CR Yeah, Max with 531 forks. It was specced like this by the original owner along with 3 bottle cages and cantis for Audax and light touring.

Geoff Roberts. Recommended - fillet brazing is flawless and the paint is superb.
I supplied the transfers via H LLoyd as Geoff didn't have the 'dog's head'R version.

Yeah, it was red. Full build a few pages back, I think.
I had an unplanned meeting with a rock one early winter’s morning. Dinged the top tube very good. Continued to ride around with it like that for a good few months (probably shouldn’t have seeing it now). But the coup de grâce was getting head on’d by a tit on an e-scooter drinking a can of Tennant’s Super going full bore down an underpass. Bent a fork blade at the canti stud.
Had both the top tube and fork blade replaced. Had a mudguard eye fitted to the underside of the fork crown and pump pegs added to non drive seat stay while it was in.

Please excuse the tyres, I was riding it through winter at the time. Gonna try to not do that anymore.

Finally getting this built up after repair and repaint.

Have you been kicked out? Is everything OK?

lifts his tail and gives me the eyes.

I see what you did there.

I ask because I've seen at least a couple of people who have completed the recent edition have got points from it.

What about All Points North?

What's the official line on claiming DIY points from UlTrAs?

27.2 inline post - in good condition. Rebuilding my Roberts after repair and repaint.
Would ideally like a silver Thomson, though black would work.

Please PM if you've got something.
Thanks.

Unfunny removal of bosses and hangers but worth putting right if it stays down in price.

Figured it must be, but could't see the logo - maybe some limited thing.

I would like to know this ^ More specifically who made the front bag.

'Bicycle' probably built by Dave Yates. Looks decent for the money. Ipswich, mind.
