I have a few frames for sale, for pickup in South East London preferably, but I can post for cost.
SOLD First, an unknown 531 touring frame 57x57cm CTC SOLD
with full braze ons and a VERY tatty paint job. There is a small crack at the top of the seat stay, unfortunately not visible in pictures but it would need welding and the non drive side of the BB has a stripped thread (Fine with sealed BBs, though). It's a lovely frame, but I don't have access to anyone to do the welding (I'm not bothered about the BB) but if you're willing to put a bit of effort in it could be a bargain.
It is obviously of good stock, as displayed in the good quality braze ons, Columbus drop outs and prugnat lugs. I've checked with Mercian, Holdsworth and Dawes whether it's one of theirs with no luck. I'm starting to think that it may be a Bob Jackson.
Sold for £40

SOLD FOR £150
Second, a Peugeot 753 Pro frame and forks. 57x57cm (ctc)
The paint has unfortunately been touched up around the tube joins, as can hopefully seen in the photos. It's lost of it's original lustre but is still an absolutely gorgeous frame with pencil seat stays, aero forks and of course, that 753 tubing.
It's a couple of cm too big for me unfortunately, and I can't justify holding onto it as I can't ride it with drop bars, and feel a bit wrong putting moustache bars or anything on it.
I'd like £150 but am open to offers.

Third, a Specialized 'Epic Pro' Carbon frame with Aluminium lugs. 58x58cm (I think, will check tomorrow)
Again, too big for me. It has some damage to the lacquer from grit I assume and a couple of chips around contact points but is structurally sound. It's incredibly light (for someone used to steel, anyway) and will be a great ride for someone that fits it!
£100

Please don't judge me on my long grass, our mower's broken.
