Re: Bougght with the headset already installed

Re: Thanks for the reply, could very well be 90s...One thing I forgot to mention is that the rear spacing on mine is 126 as well...

Re: No reply from Dave Yeats yet, doubt I'll get one at this point so maybe someone here has more info...

Re: I see, thank you for your answer. The thing is that I don't think I could fit 28mm tires in the frame, but it has eyelets for mudguards so it's not a full out race frame but not a tourer exactly either so I was wondering. Maybe Dave Yeats will shed some light on the subject... As you can...

Re: Aditional question while waiting for a reply. Does anyone know what a single set of bottle cage mounts means in terms of bike category? i.e a touring bike or race bike? It occured to me that this is my first frame without 2 sets of water bottle mounts... Thank you

Re: Thank you, I guess I will write him an email. Very nice bike btw! Edit> Mail sent, see if he replies

Re: I think I' ve read this somewhere too, just that i saw a few reynolds 6xx and 8xx Joe Waugh frames which all had pantographs on seatstay lugs/ fork crown...Thank you again for answering, might contact Dave Yates on his website see if he identifies the frame

Re: Re: Thank you. The crank and rear derailleur look like Deore LX to me but I might be wrong. Hope those experts chime in real quick...:)
