I recently picked up a wearwell frame and I have no idea what it really is I was told it was either a 1951 tdf or a 1954 tdf but I'm not really sure what it is as it had been resprayed at some point in its life. It doesn't have a serial number only 622 on the seat tube lug which i'm assuming means they are stainless.
it takes a 27.2 seat post if thats any help identifying it.
I think the tubing may be stainless as well but then it might be 531 as most wearwells were.
it weighs 1.7kg which i thought was pretty light for a frame of its age.
if you know anything about these frames could you get me know as i really want to rebuild it
the heat marks are from the seat post it had seized into the frame when i got it and there was no other way to get it out.
