G Tutin frame

[Tootyred]

That's been up some several weeks now. I thought it might make a good gravel bike, but the rear is not as wide as it might look.

Jo asks "Does my bum look big in this"? I say I will take a picture or two. Jo "Oh they are awful delete them". Me "yes of course dear "

Here’s a review from this month, 17 years ago, in Mountain Bike Pro No.40 Oct 1996 about 3 British frame builders, Venom, Graeme Tutin and Chas Roberts.

Love the flat sided forks on the Venom.

I've asked Graeme if it's one of his. He made under his own name for a while. He worked for Donohue for a while.

Dispute his name on downtube he can't remember doing one with a x brace in the rear stays or shooting the stays in so high up the seat tube or with a pip for the brass cable wheel to turn a bottom pull front mech into a top pull cable run. He says early Donohue features. Possibly redecaled.
