I have a bunch of lovely frames I'll be listing over the coming week. Here's 3 to kick off:
All frames are available for pick-up from Newington Green, or can be posted to the UK for £10. I will also post worldwide, please get in touch for a price.
1977/78 Raleigh Special Divisions, Ilkestone built Team Panasonic road frame - £200
Tubing: Reynolds 531
Seat Tube: 58.5cm ctt

Rear dropouts: 128mm

This lovely Raleigh frame dates to around late 1977/78 and has the Gerald 'O' Donovan 'G.O.D' sticker on the seat tube but is In the full Team Panasonic colours, so it must have had a respray in the 80s. It's an amazing frame, with nice lug work, cut-out BB shell and Campagnolo dropouts front & rear, but could really do with a re-spray to live up to it's potential. There are rust spots and tatty paint but no dents or dings or anything nasty.
Headset & BB are not included, but can be at a reduced price.
Pinarello Asolo, Columbus Cromor. Pearl White/Chrome - Price drop - £265
Tubing: Columbus Cromor
Seat Tube: 53cm ctt
Top Tube: 53cm ctc
Rear dropouts: 126mm

Delightful Pinarello frame in a lovely pearl white colour. Amazing Pinarello detail as to be expected, including beautiful cut-out lugs, nice Pinarello chrome dropouts and Pinarello stamping throughout. Unfortunately the paintwork has a few ungainly touch-ups and is a bit tatty, with some decal wear too. The chrome is not very good on the chainstay but it is perfect on the dropouts. Could be amazing with some restoration work. 126mm dropouts.
Headset & BB are not included, but can be at a reduced price.
Bottecchia 989, Columbus SLX frameset - SOLD
Tubing: Columbus SLX
Seat Tube: 51.5cm ctt
Top Tube: 51cm ctc
Rear dropouts: 130mm

Classic little red Italian number, built from Columbus SLX tubing. Great detail, like the nice cut-out lugs, Cinelli bottom bracket shell, Columbus dropouts and interesting Gipiemme brake bridge/fixing. Paintwork is mainly good, but there are a few quite large but inoffensive touch-ups, there are also areas of paint flaking but absolutely no structural problems.
Headset & BB are not included, but can be at a reduced price.
