picked up this a couple of weeks ago and with so many projects on the go thought i would offer this one out only to cc'ers .
all i can tell you is its been poorly painted blue and has the following 4 digit number 4549 stamped across the underside of the bottom bracket , with both cable guides brazed on the top , 1 of these has some stamping on it but too small to read .
its 22 1/4" from centre of crank to centre of seat pinch bolt and 22 1/4" along the top tube centre to centre , early nut fixed cable style brake mounts fr & rr , 1 set of bottle cage mounts and takes 700 wheels with 130mm rr drop out , fr is normal 105mm .
looks like it takes a 27.2 mm seat post so could be reynolds 531 , i was told it was a Bob Jackson frame but have no proof or anyway of telling . Nice lug detailing and cut outs .
i can also say at the base on each side of the seat post clamp slot there is what looks to a short split each side but please note seat post tightened up ok , i have tried to show this in one of the pics but couldnt get camera to focus that well .
nice and light at around 2.5 kg on my cheap pr of fishing scales !
bike is in nn8 Wellingborough post code or could be packed and boxed for an extra £18.50
asking for £50 or it goes up in attic till it times comes around
loads more pics on my flickr https://www.flickr.com/photos/68734341@N04/
