Pat Rohan 1950s 21 inch 74 road race frame 1 campag hub 80s quality kit

[farfromtheland]

My tatty looking but excellent red bike, set up for fast commuting with 1 inch 700c Super Champion rims and custom drilled 52/36 - I think, but may be down to 50/32 - chainset, 165 cranks, Weinman 605s, Andrew Hague low rider front carrier and other reasonable but not so excellent parts including bar-end levers is for reluctant sale due to increasing disability. The lugwork is simply beautiful, with flat-top fork crowns. I suspect it is single butted, extremely light. Wheels were built by Beta Bikes of West Hampstead. Both hub qrs are campag. I hub is, the other is quality. The frame is possibly 21 1/2 inch - I am 5ft 4" and it was geometrically matched to me, but I cannot bend to measure it right now. It's been stored indoors and though the original decals are worn everything is fairly well preserved.

I am looking for the best offer and will text you photos - my tech is primitive - if you send a message please.
Best wishes!

@farfromtheland sounds lovely shame about the size

Thanks biggs682!
I miss it.

I have a bunch of other parts free for collection - I'm in South East London - that might suit a community bike-building project - various used bars (inc. BMX) and stems, rear cogs, alloy racks, a dynohub in a bent wheel. Some old alloy wheels maybe.
