Offering Batavus Professional team frame

Edit: Now with 600EX headset included :)

This true Cult early 80s frame is nicely made of Reynolds 531 butted tubing, Bocama Super Professional long point lugs with enamelled cut outs and Campagnolo dropouts. Very rare in this team livery. The frame is handmade in Holland by Batavus' small custom frame department. It is a full professional level frame with great handling characteristics and great visual appeal. The natural competitor of the fastests Gazelle Champion Mondial back in the day.

Build it with for example Dura Ace EX (team spec) and ride it very hard, as that is what it is meant for >>>

Batavus Professional team bike and rider (Geert Schipper) on cover of 1984 catalog

Features:
- full Reynolds 531 butted tubing for frame and fork
- Bocama Super Professional long point lugs
- Campagnolo drop outs
- half chromed fork blades
- metal headbadge
- Seattube 56cm c-t
- Toptube 560mm

Condition:
Falls short if you're looking for a concours de elegance winning example, but it will make an excellent rider. It is a used frame that from many angles looks very nice, while from other angels several paint imperfection can be noticed. Some paint off on right seat stay above brake bridge is by far most serious flaw in cosmetic condition. Structurally the frame is 100% sound. View all pics to form your own opinion.

Comes with:
- Shimano 600EX headset
