Yes I know very little about Falcons or what they did with Holdsworth name. Would they have made specials? Most large co. did, but I get the feel Falcon may not. I guess its possible the through frame fitting were added when the frame was re-painted and used for TT's? I am sure there is another one in the database with this feature or it could be one I was considering then rejected. I'll keep looking.
That pump peg for me is significant as I have seen it on most 531C frames I've looked at. They all look very similar in style across many companies, but do have subtle differences in BB and head lugs. I did a lot of look of looking on line when I first got the Roadace and there are these very subtle differences between the 88 and 89 frames. Fortunately the frame number details the year and even the month. The C is the lightest of my 531 frames and the bike is defiantly the nicest to ride. I think some more digging is required to ID this one.
