Here is the Paramount frame I mentioned in my recent wheels listing. I acquired a lot of Alan Braithwaite built bikes and this frame, which is believed to have been built by 'Pongo' whilst learning his craft at Paramount Cycles.

This was hanging in a garage for many many years with just wheels and headset installed but never built up. Storage wear is present but it's near-perfect. It features a very interesting Ti 531 decal which I've never seen before, and Zeus dropouts front & rear.

I'd like £325 for this beauty.

Seat Tube: 59cm (ctc) Top Tube: 56cm (ctc)
Tubing: Ti Reynolds 531, Rear Spacing: 120mm, Seatpost: 27.2mm

Nice frameset.

Nothing unusual about the Reynolds sticker though, it's late 1980s and should be on the fork leg!

Roadking.
 
Qualify - that is a second half of 80s sticker(I think it was introduced in 1986)...but beware, stickers & transfers, like components, are not necessarily a guide to age.

Rk.
