Seems like no one has ever seen another bike with lugged rear drop outs

pics added dont be shocked ...in damn disgracefull condition...but what a canvas

I have recently come across this frame that I am going to restore but have no clue as to what it could be. Its a super light steel frame. I "rescued" it from a chap with no respect for his bike, as you will see from the pic.
There are some very characteristic features, one of them the lugged rear drops outs (as opposed to the more commeon 'spliced' d/o) and the position of the stays on the seat post lug.
WHICH BIKES WERE MADE WITH LUGGED REAR DROP OUTS?
Please help in creating a list that I could follow up. IF YOU PICS OF SUCH BIKES IT WOULD BE GREAT!

wow Zieleman that is one beautiful bike ...Is it yours?

[quote=GA2G;879456]tarboy, we now all hate you more than even before.

(WE) (ALL) (HATE)
oUCH :(

Not inspired to start until its orderly in there with a bench and all. There are a few other bikes I need to get onto as well. And murphy would have it that after spending all this cash on this colnago; a rather beautiful blue and yellow bataglin (full bike) appeared in the classifieds today. Might break the bank but its the first I've spotted here. Seems to be a must.

YEP, I got it.
Itching to get to work on it, but I've recently moved house and the garage/'workshop' isn't sorted yet.

why oh why shi(t)mano?

we'll go for a ride tonight and we'll talk about it

I would really appreciate it if you gave me the small token of letting me have it fot 450

Oh shit!

*[quote=Balki;875332] All's fair in love and war.*

Now theres someone who knows the deal should feel real

No at the moment its still me with sole first option.

provenrad ... just when I had no hope that no-one understood this philosophy.
will you do me a favour and add a nice tag.
I've got really hammered here unfortunately.

yes I have the dosh, already in my pocket. Seeing each other this evening.

Note that the wording was "classic" bike culture.

Hey andyp, thats a bit unneccessary, take a breather.

Secondly, seller has paid about 8 for posting including photo gallery, plus 10% final value up to max 50 plus if paid by paypal another 2,9%. So i was just doing a rough estimate

Well well well there we go. Confirmation at last. Look at this example posted by andyp. Only 465 pounds and in virtually perfect condition. This one I'm looking at has some marks around the cranksprocket on the stay and seat post tubes.
and the seller in reality only gets to walk away with 400

company sponsored relocation costs him nothing.

Mirius (wool brain avatar) WTF??

Lets make sure that the key point is emphasised here. Thats what exclamation marks are for afterall.
Put yourself in my shoes for a brief second. You have a friend for more than a decade of your life, you share slipstreams, you regard him as your chief riding partner, and when it comes to parting roads in life; the bike that hes not even prepared to take with, is offered to you with no consideration of the fact that youve shared many kilometers. And that someone he doesn't ven know is offered the bike at the same price.
Does nobody understand this yet? A riding buddy system of a decade+ totally devalued.
See...its personal.
This the point.
Lets make it clear the F+F will be mine!
