I put this up a while ago (http://www.londonfgss.com/thread25156.html) but I was in the middle of moving house and I never sorted anything out. The frame hasn't been on the road since then and has been in storage gathering dust, it's really nice and needs to be ridden! I wish I could use it but it's just too big for me.
Looking to trade for something around 54/55cm but will consider offers of part-exchange or if you have a frame you want to sell me.
Details:
Reynolds 531 tubing, 58cm c-c, c-t. Campagnolo Chorus Headset, Miche Primato BB.
Powdercoated at Armourtex in April 09, with brand new decals from H Lloyd Cycles (http://www.hlloydcycles.com/) these have not had a clearcoat over them so you could remove if you want.
Campagnolo fork and track ends (unfortunately you can only just make out the engraving through the powdercoat), forks are drilled for a front brake with the rear of the hole enlarged to take a modern brake caliper.
Clearances are pretty tight, unfortunately haven't had a chance to take a photo with wheels but I can do if there's interest.
Couple of tiny dents on the top tube, one of which is underneath the top tube protector (obviously I added it too late!) which is a hand stitched piece of brown leather. Not particularly noticeable or structurally problematic. Everything else is straight and true.
The stem is also stuck as the hex key bolt has been rounded off, obviously you could remove this by removing the headset, it's a fairly nice (Atax) stem anyway, though it could do with a polish.
Roy Thame worked for Holdsworth cycles and you can read more about him here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holdsworth), the serial number is stamped on steerer and I have photos of this before the headset was put on at home somewhere if you're interested.
Thanks for looking.
