SBDU

[Jorgo]

Found this 25 minutes from my home.
1984 Raleigh SBDU with complete Super Record.
Maybe 50 miles on it, as new! Even the tyres and brake lever hoods is in perfect condition.
Never seen that paintjob before though, anyone?
Can't wait till summer, hope it is my size. Maybe a bit to big though. If i was to sell the frame, what would the price be?, i find it hard to say.

Looking at the rear brake cable guides and the fact it has two water bottle mounts and the colour of the Reynolds decal I'd say its a 753 frame ?

It was more than likely a custom made to order frame and bought as a frame only from the special products department and then either built at home or by the shop it was bought threw. So could have easily been a custom paint job.

Re:

Thanks. The decal says Reynolds 531C and yes, it was bought as a frameset and built by the owner. Only one owner before me.

Same paint scheme as one of mine. SB5794 Time Trial Special. 531c

Time trial specials came with a decal on the head tube and not a metal badge iirc, drastic weight loss measure

Thanks. It's 56x56 cm and i'm more a 54 kind of size, but we will see.
I took it to a pro photo shoot with excellent results, i'll try and make a link to the pics.
