I've had a few Bat Pro's mine have all had columbus tubing though. Yes easily on par with Gazelle.
For your reference I sold MF (above) his frame for £150 excluding h/s. A 62cm frame for £130 excluding h/s and a 62cm Campag Athena full bike on Ebay for £400 to a guy in Belgium.
Has the 531 model got those lovely aero forks?
I think you might have to consider splitting the bike to make your money. The frame looks lovely, 531, chrome and good paint has got to be a winner, I don't like the mish mash of parts but I am a bit of a stickler for having groupsets.

Apologies once again for the delay:



As you can see it is near perfect condition. Erm...before making a decision I think you had better wait for me to confirm the length I have a vague recollection that it maybe a 110mm. I'll get back to you much sooner than I did with the pics! (although thats not saying much!) Apologies again for this further delay!!!! I'm really slacking lately.....

Ok so whilst I've got the camera out and shifting a few bikes about here are my other current projects:
1953 AS Gillott - Building as a 1x6 or 7 as a commuter. Paint is not original it's just been rattlecanned, quite well though. Group is 600 Arabesque with old parts like the brooks, GB stem and bars.


But although the Gillott is nearly complete now I may shift it (or convert to fixed) because I'm gunna breath some new life into:

My 1985 Raleigh Competition. Had this since 1992'ish and was the first quality bike I built (got the frame from Hearne Hill Jumble). It's been hanging in the garage for years. I sold the Campag bits that I had on it and replaced it with 600 Ultegra which has also been robbed for bikes I have built for others.
Can't decide how to build it. The condition is not brilliant anymore so it's not up for restoration. I have the Sachs New Success with the best looking rear mech ever which I'm tempted to put on but I also have a Campag Mirage Ergo group I'm tempted to fit for practicality....(erming towards Mirage at the mo)
And finally my latest aquirement my Columbus Max framed Duell with mainly Campag Chorus 8 speed groupset. Just wanna change a few things like the bars and stem, saddle and seatpost, headset, etc nothing major. It's just so very different this one and hopefully a future classic.

This is my most current project, my mates/ my ex Duell:


Oh how it pains me to see it like this :(
Here are some pics of it pre pedal overlap modifications (i.e crashing into a steel barrier): http://s597.photobucket.com/albums/tt55/Telsun/Duell/
