Pretty low end fare from the 90's.

Well what size do you think it is? I do not have a keen eye for these things.

It's prefect for what I want it for commuting and some training hack,

Its for sale for 20pounds, so can't go wrong.

I wouldn't like to guess on the size but for a £20 commuter you can't go wrong.

Well what size do you think it is?

Judging by the head tube length, I was going to say 22". I guess that makes it 57cm:

RESULT,

I paid 15pounds for this bike came with

Shimano rear wheel, 9 speed Dura ace hub and cassette

Camps front wheel



Belong to a Swedish cyclist who rode in tour de france, Giro and Sydney 2000. Didn't get to meet him but did get to have an interesting chat with his mother about it. What a FIND!!!

Now I just need a road frame to do those wheels justice.... Another bike
