Recently bought for a fiver, new cables, regreased all the bearings in wheels, bb, head and fitted with new cables (except crossovers which will be here monday). Has a biopace chainset and reynolds 500 frame. What is astonishing to me is how nice this rides. I don't mean its good, its bloody excellent! so comfy and the pedalling and shifting is great. Going to my step brothers Dad so not a keeper but I'll have it back in an instant if he never uses it.

Did you paint the lug detailing yourself? I noticed it wasn't there on the first pics. If so you are a brave person indeed. It looks very good and highlights the beautiful lugs well. The whole thing is excellent and tastefully done.Got a slightly better picture of the Mercian, still need foot retention

My Graham Weigh 653 according to the original receipt, at some point it was refurbed by Ellis Briggs and for some reason has there decals on every tube other than the forks
Mainly ultegra with a Dura ace crankset ,wheels are MOST Wildcats at the moment as the tubs are a bit perished on the original wheels (Shimano 600 hubs with GP4,s)Paul
