Very nice and sturdy frame

 

[sefton1275gt]

I thought about one of these as a touring bike frame (due to the wide tyre clearance)

I love this look

Is it a 56cm? I always liked that colour, especially with black decals.

When you love a bike so much you have to have another! Been there

Yep. Got 2 Spa titanium audaxes. One for winter with basic spec and a mudguarded bike for summer with a better spec

yes 56cm, am toying with idea of black decals, either that or none. current thinking is flat bar, fat tyres and 1x9 drivetrain.

rolling chassis test this a.m. - the thing I like about these frames is that all of the parts you have lying around just fit, no problem, its a far cry from battling with esoteric diameter parts from the 80s and 90s.
