very tidy, but the colour possibly not for everyone. Apparently she was a very accomplished wheel builder in her day.

Touch it up and ride it
I had it in my watching pile and looks like a good price just a shame not local

Lovely bike - £126 was the winning bid.
Not in the same league, a 57cm lugged 501 Gitane, with Shimano 600. Currently £64 in London: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/19415499...0b4b74948a0be1cad9541d&bu=43605948081&ut=RU&e

Started young, and still going.
The seller isn't making too much of an effort to sell it.

I don't think they realize what it is otherwise it wouldn't have an £8.90 starting bid. It's a proper Carlton with wraparound seat stays, not some badge-engineered gas-piper.The seller isn't making too much of an effort to sell it.

Two today:
Gazelle PG 531 framed Trim Trophy with Shimano 600. Currently £26 in Hucknall: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174786316868?hash=item28b2138a44:g:KyQAAOSwEE9glqFA
Nice Columbus framed D Salmon* with a mix of components - but the seller is noting a stuck seatpost: six bidders & currently £59 in Beaconsfield.

* well regarded French former framebuilder & mudguard manufacturer

Fine Catieau road bike with nice Columbus lugged frame & chromed fork, Simplex, Mavic, Cinelli etc... & with a beautiful Silca Impero too. Currently £64 in Market Drayton: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/38419677...1076X1383750Xf114c3fce6e09b5147d2efae310357fb
Edit: p.s. probably one of the nicest frames I've seen this year - lugs, seat stay caps, brake bridge & dropouts - great colour scheme too. Lovely bike.

Looks a bit like a Super Pro but it has a 531 sticker, Super Pro was made from cro-mo IIRC,

It's now been sold for £20. Somebody got an absolute bargain.
He's got some lovely frames
