Condor Baracchi Build Thread

I have a Condor Baracchi from 1972... different fork crown....as present in 1972 but it is totally lugless including the seatpost cluster.

What dropouts does yours have...mine are Zeus without MG eyes but they could have been removed....The serial number is 7274 (sadly not prefixed by a V)...so wondering if it might have been built by Tom Board?

I don't usually like yellow bikes, but that looks really good!

@sawston_vulcan more pics of yours too please!

More pics will follow when the frame is built up.....be soon.

Looks like I was right in my Tom Board hunch.

Reply from Condor:

Hello Leon,
Thank you for getting in touch about your Classic Condor Baracchi. Sadly your information is correct as we do not have records going back to this era. All your other information is also spot on, I would suggest that this is probably a Tom Board frame as well, Monty was also dabbling in frame building around this time as well but I doubt he would have built a fillet brazed frame.
