I've owned this bike since 1993, but it has seen no use, except for one ride in 2012, for about 20 years.
It has a double butted chromoly frame (similar to 531, I believe, but branded as Butler's own tubeset), 531 forks and a Suntour gearset, with an unusual reverse action front mech. Brakes are centre pull Weinmanns. Pedals are Campagnolo Centaur from the 90s (lovely bearing quality)
It's in need of some TLC - there's a fair bit of surface rust - but it rides fine. A respray would have it back to new, as there's no real structural rust anywhere.
I neglected to measure it (bike is currently located at my parents' house) but it is relatively small - just about fits me, and I'm 5'9. Probably 21inch, I would say.
Bike is located in Devon, but delivery within a reasonable distance could be negotiated..
