Picked up this frame today. I've got no idea what to do with it, as I have zero road parts to work with.

The frame looks completely unused - there isn't a scratch on it and the covers are still on the cantilever mounts. It also comes with a exage chainset that has been fitted but never seen a chain.

Can anyone start be helping out with a rough age?

its a 531 Super Tourist frame, 1" steerer and has internal cable routing for the rear brakes.

nice

about 1994/5 ish

big ish

turn it into a 29er mtb flat barred gravel road atb

those Exage cranks are really nice, never seen the one with a guard before (I have an LX version somewhere)
 
Got it from an auction in Goole. I tried with 38mm last night, and there is a enough clearance, but not a chance with mud guards.

I need to spend a bit of time figuring out if its going to be too small before I start thinking about building it up.
 
It also came with a "free" Minoura RS5000 workstand - I think I'm happier with that - its much more sturdy than the one I'm using right now.
 
I have a similar stand and it's been a revelation compared to my old aldi one. Not least because you can have its 'back' to the wall due to the leg arrangement, way better in a tight workshop.
