Argos 753 road bike frame (is it collectable)

b10med

Retro Newbie
Got a frame which I have recently put up for sale and and now starting to think I should keep it as the interest in it has gone mental.
Its an Argos 753 (confirmed as original by Argos themselves) Pic attached. It looks like it was a club or team bike at some stage and the decals seem to inicate this.
what do you think anyone?

Argos certainly made some nice frames, and they were ridden by some top amateur riders (Stuart Dangerfield for one). 753 is a great tubeset, so if the frame condition is good under that grime then it's pretty desirable. Why don't you clean it up a bit!! I am not sure of Argos made team bikes, but if they did they would likely have a race tag brazed on towards the front of the top tube and I can't see one here. However, it's definitely a top end machine from, at a guess, late 80's early 90's. Did Argos not confirm the year?

Keep it!
