Fillet brazed Woodrup circa 1989

Also, was fillet brazed Prestige a U.K. quirk? I can only think of this and Swallow where I’ve seen it done: anyone know of others?

I have a 1993 Dave Yates custom with FB Prestige front end and 753 rear.

That’s v. Cool. Centaur was 89 90 and I guess a bit roadie crossover (I have Centaur hubs that are 130mm and screw on freewheel). What are your wheels?

Agree with jimo on the fashion absolute necessity of running a short cage mech back then, of course balanced by a looong stem (Nitto MTB-3 I think - made for Specialized - lush and has a nice drilled hanger. I use one on my Stumpie.)

Super find.

Think you are correct about the stem.
