Frame Identification

Posted on
  • Hello,

    I recently bought a frame from Hillary Stone which was painted yellow with "Steve Lawrence" on the side.

    However, the only thing i can find on Steve Lawrence is that he was a cyclist from the 70's and 80's. There was a sticker on the down tube above the usual Reynolds tubing sticker which said Steve Lawrence Cycles. I cant find anything on Steve Lawrence Cycles so im assuming he was not the frame builder so i wonder if this frame was made for him?

    It is Reynolds 531 double butted tubing with Campagnolo drop outs. The only thing that resembles a serial number is 175 printed on the BB. It has really nice tight geometry and is generally what i believe to be a very nicely built frame.

    Maybe some of you experts out there might recognise the lugs or something and maybe point me in the right direction.

    Basically i would quite like to be true to the frame and give it its original makers decals when i re paint it.

    Im not expecting much so any information will be greatly appreciated.

    Ill post the picture of the frame before stripping and then some details of the lugs etc. too.

    Thanks!

  • British or Italian BB.?

  • Im pretty sure its a British BB. i measured the inside diameter of the BB its its about 34mm. Not exact though as i was using a ruler.

  • You need to measure the width. 68mm British 70mm Italian. Of course some UK builders used bb's from Italy and vice versa

  • Its 68mm so definitely British.
