Yes, it’s a bit hipster in its current form but I’ll probably put some drops and skinny tyres on it eventually. I have a vintage Mercian track frame going extremely cheap if you’re interested…
Interesting that people will fork out 10k plus for the latest carbon offerings from Taiwan yet £350 for a handbuilt bespoke frame from one the finest frame builders there ever was is 'overpriced'.
It belonged to a dear uncle of mine. He bought it new in '68 and wore it everyday of his life. When he passed away a few years ago he bequeathed it to me.
It is indeed a Condor repro. Not to everyone's taste but it's fine for posing around town. I certainly had some funny looks from the carbon fibre crowd on the lanes this morning...
That works for me. I'm in Worcester. I'm going to spend tonight thinking of all the reasons I shouldn't buy this and I'll let you know the result in the morning, if you still have it buy then!
This has been my main commuter/winter hack for a few years. It’s a Dave Hinde Columbus SLX frame that I powder coated in ‘Turkish Delight’ pink.
