Mate, that's some impressive sleuthing!!! Doubt I can do any better.

did the whole thing on my computer and it was well buggy. Kept replacing the existing photos I'd uploaded with the latest one I uploaded. Only managed 3 pics then it wouldn't let me do more. Bit annoying as pics are kinda key when selling something...

Thanks. Everyone is being super nice on here. I'll give parts identification a go...

Thanks for the kind advice Fintan, but I don't know enough about the parts to be able to list makes and models. I don't even know the model of the bike. It wasn't of any importance when I bought it. I'd just had my bike stolen so needed a replacement asap for work. So it was really a fluke that I became the owner of this awesome racer.

Does anyone know why I can't load five images when it says five are allowed??!

Sorry, having technical issues. My pics didn't load...

I sadly have to say goodbye to my wonderful racer. I bought it off a friend many years ago and used it as a commuter bike for about 5 years. It's been a joy to ride – it's so damn fast – but I now have a neck problem and can't use deep drop bars any longer. So the bike has just been sitting around and it's a shame as someone should be enjoying it. I'd like to find it a new loving home and the right owner who could restore it to its former glory. A cyclist friend told me this forum might be the place to find such a person.

I've done regular maintenance on it and replaced things like, chain, cassette, cables, break pads. The shifters are however original. One of them (for the front) wasn't working when I bought it and the other one has become a little temperamental over the years. For more details on make and model of parts, pls see comments by Philbythesea below (thanks mate!) or ask me for more detailed pics.

The photo with the white bar tape is from the day I bought it and silver bar tape is now (I know, I know, the bike is facing the wrong way!). I'm happy to take more measurements or photos or even video for anyone interested. Just let me know.
