fiveSixteenths
Senior Retro Guru
Possibly ‘50s (could go either way) frame and fork.
Measuring up, it’s a size 58, 56.5 ctc, 120 rear OLN.
BB has an oil port, front and rear mudguard eyes.
Looks like Nervex lugs (Nervex bb), nice fork crown.
The rear brake bridge looks like it’s been pinched flat (not by me.)
The paint is very thick (clearly not original) so full disclosure I’ve not checked for any cracks - but it appears sound.
There are four digits and an O or a zero stamped on the underside of the bb.
There is a dent on the top tube near the seatpost end, it doesn’t look terminal, but it’s there, so £30 collected, Nr Reading.
