It's strange to think of Williams self-badging bikes - these days I wouldn't trust them to oil my chain! I had a Raleigh frame replaced under warranty in the early 90s and they forgot to tighten the stem so first corner I came to, I went one way and the handlebars went t'other
Nice bike though, and it would be nice to "bring it home" to Cheltenham. Is the 531C sticker genuine? Competition on a tourer? I would've thought that would be a little delicate

you see quite a few 531c's touring frame sets from about the same era

Good, honest-looking bike; unlike the seller: that's a lot of bad feedback!

Usually I would but It isn't for me, too far away and too big, I just thought someone on here may be interested.
