NOS Orbit Reynolds 531 AT frameset

[Rod_Saetan]

Never built up but with some marks and a few little spots of surface rust here and there this is a really nicely made little frame ideal for a little touring bike, MTB or some sort of trendy grave bike / dad bike type thing. Reynolds 531 All Terrain tube set with 531 forks, lugged BB and other junctions brazed with a good amount of braze ons for mudguards, a rack etc, nice straight blade unicrown fork too. The colour is hard to describe but I'd say a sort of grey/brown metallic root beer kinda colour. Probably early 90s, pretty remarkable that it's made it this long without ever having been put together (see dropouts).

Seat tube = 13.5" centre to centre
Seat tube = 16" centre to top
Top tube = 20" centre to centre
Head tube = 100 mm
Rear spacing = 135 mm
1" British threaded fork
British threaded BB
Takes a 27.2 mm seatpost

£250 plus post - or collect SW London.

I assume that's a U brake rear end?

Lovely.

These Orbit frames are fairly new to me, but I really like them.

Very nice my friend

Re:

I didn’t think about the brake! Yes, U brake rear.

Cool, and you might not see another with a Seatstay U brake any time soon...GLWS
