The dropouts are circa late 70s or early 80s. it's well build and not too heavy. i have spend two hours searching for framebuilders of that era but not found one. Frame Number DT153.

Re:

Is the number clearly stamped? Could it be DD153 ?

Is that a renovated by Bob Jackson decal?

Yeah that's a Bob Jackson renovated decal.

I just wondered if Bob Jackson had any record of what it was they sprayed. Mitred seat stays remind me of a later Holdsworth Special or a Woodrup.

Re:

Looking out your window I would guess you are in the vicinity of the Pennines. Add in the Bob Jackson renovation and a date of early 80's and the potential for the frame number to start with DD is greater. Can you confirm if that number prefix is clear or not?

Who is DD?

Re:

Rick Powell. Based in South Yorkshire as DD Enterprises. He produced frame No 200 circa 1985. If it is one of his treasure it. They are top class.
