Hello all

The number is WP000192
Thankyou in advance for any info Bill

Any pictures ?

25" would place it in the "long fellow" range, built on a separate line and cost a shed load more in the shops..... 1980 as mentioned and pics are a goldmine

Colour? Could be a Pro am or Criterium... or Cyclone... need a picture or two! These were made in big frame sizes...

Even a blurred low resolution photo taken on an old phone (like my contributions) would be welcome
