Probably the best off the peg touring bikes available

Think I have an unused still in box 12-21 somewhere. That's a bit smaller than what you specified but let me know if you want me to unearth it

You've really underpriced this. Personally, I'd pull the post and have a rethink

Keep it quiet, you may get jailed for being a spy

You could argue an older bike doesn't need support. Parts are fairly generic. Any basic shop or DIY enthusiast can repair it. What extra support is necessary? Joe Public isn't as special as us and doesn't need to know that the head angle on a 54 is 72° but on a 56 is 73°

The catalogue shot says 531 butted frame tubes, so I would say 27.2mm. 531 plain gauge would be different (26.4??). What makes you doubt 27.2?

Happy to meet up in say Endcliffe park at some point if it suits. I'm in-between having sold my car and not yet having replaced it and don't fancy riding up to yours. We can work out the detail by PM, as you say

Stop confusing things 😉

Yes, it doesn't specify. I've no bars to test it and don't own any delicate measuring equipment
