Corrado (Cougar/Dolan) British Custom Steel Road Frame
http://www.flickr.com/photos/76381855@N ... 360359998/
Corrado racing frame.
Top tube - 53.5cm centre to centre
Seat tube - 49cm centre to centre / 51 centre to top
27.2 dia
130mm rear spacing
includes Tange Aheadset and spacers (1")
Campagnolo useable BB included.
Compact/custom geometry so sizing numbers don't tell the whole story regarding fit.
Image of built up bike felt pretty good to me, certainly racey, I'm 5ft 11.
Corrado was born from the demise of Cougar, apparently set up by the builders of Boardman's original custom frames, possibly by Dave Lloyd and somewhere Terry Dolan was involved. This is genuine custom British steel frame building.
The tube set is Dedacci and is heavily profiled across the top tube and seat tube - looks like an alloy frame at a glance, but isnt - its 100% quality steel.
Responsive, firm ride - 27.2mm seat post, vertical drop outs and straight bladed forks with 1" ahead steerer.
Original paint and stickers (they are laser cut but sealed under thick lacquer), few rust spots where the paint has chipped off and metal been left exposed but its just surface, these are are brake mounts, seat tube clamp very top, cable rub areas on the head tube.
Some very slight tiny imperfections you can see on the tubing - they look like they have always been there and are highlighted by the straightness of the tubing and high gloss finish. The tubes 'ping' and sound very thin/hard.
Scabby old forks as you can see.
Its pretty rare, genuine modern British steel custom frame building at bargain basement price…
