The seat-tube clamp area's mangled though, yes?

Don't think so. It certainly wasn't standard, but I've seen other bontragers with that reinforced section on the seat tube clamp area.

Oh, and having had a closer look, the rear dropout is plate steel rather than forged - its definitely a race.

Privateer - note the thicker section in the middle

Race - same gauge

Strange the paint decals look original.....but your identification looks totally accurate.....v.odd.
 
I would say that it is a privateer colourway.. but the seat tube reinforcement is as per my Race light. Lemme see if I can find a pic
 
Hmm, interesting stuff!

I'm still thinking that this is a Privateer frameset TBH. I'm guessing that maybe the very early ones might have used Race type dropouts?

Either way, that needs buying if the price stays low. If the rust hasn't eaten it too much just sort a powdercoat and you have a smashing rider :D
