It's abit big for me, I'm just over 5'10" so would suit someone an inch taller. Built as a 'crit' frame the bb is slightly higher to keep you pedalling through the corners. The lugs look to be cast all round, way too good looking for pressed ones, shot in rear stays and an aero fork crown. Wheelbase isn't stupid tight (2 finger gap)so it handles like a well put together steel frame should.
I managed to break a rear dropout when I broke an axle, he repaired it and I did the finishing...took an hour each side. Rode it a further 12 months without a problem before trading up to 653.
Looking for £100 plus post.
PM me an email and I'll send a load of pictures.
