Holdsworth Mistral build

Re:

If that is the case regarding the spacing of the super mistral that could be why the 115 bb does not fit mine but may fit yours in that case.

The frame you bought off eBay is a super mistral. You can tell by the forks (as long as their serial number matches the frame) and lugs.

Hopefully you're right, I really would like to use the UN55 I have.

As per the frame cycletothesea bought from Mario off eBay, the description does indeed state that the serial matches on both frame and forks.

Re:

Nice. Very similar to mine except I have chrome forks and customised the head tube. Check out this link of team rider Colin Lewis. The lugs of the bike he is riding would indicate a Super Mistral?

The wrap over seat stays also should confirm that?
I'm no expert though :/

Some Mistrals had wrapovers too.

That's just an Allen key bolt (painted)unscrew it out if the hole, get a regular cage, screw it in.careful of the paint.

Ah stupid! Didn't realised he painted it!!

Internal paint makes it hard to insert Allen key.
But yeah.

Feeling stupid.
