1985 TIG'd, Japan built from Tom Ritchey Selected 4130 cromo tubes frame and forks, original mottled paint work, original decals (although getting tatty - see pics), a few dents to the TT that are small and are not structural (again, see pics). Classic Ritchey design with U brake/roller cam mounts on rear, Shimano dropouts, Unifork takes a cantilever. BB does not turn but should come out with some effort, same with headset cups.
Seat tube: 15" c-to-c; 16" c-to-t
Top tube: 20" c-to-c
These were built, I believe, for the original Rocky Mountain bike shop in Canaidia before they started making their own bikes.
Obviously this is not a hand-crafted by Tom bike, but they are rare, especially in this diminutive size and would be the makings of a pretty cool project.
Will come with a period Specialized stem, some swoopy steel bars, period grips, Suntour 4 finger levers and front and rear Suntour Mountech mechs to get you started. The wheels are not included but would go very well too!
£140 the lot posted in the UK.
