Re:

I've asked the seller if it is still available, if it is I will go and get it to satisfy my curiosity!

Not heard of them. I'm going to have a look this evening and will probably buy it as some of the parts look useful anyway. Will update!

Re:

So Joe, did you buy it? We're those seat stays meant to be that way?

Yep bought it, and yes I'm certain the stays are meant to be that way!

Despite appearances, the frame is nothing "special". It's lugged but probably gas-pipe or reynold's 500.

However all parts are mid-range and in good condition, it's really nicely put together actually, feels bombproof.

I'll put some photo's up over the weekend.

Will probably be for sale next week - it's not really my thing at the moment (just sold my only road bike a couple of weeks ago) and I'm supposed to be having a bike-cull, not buying more!

Put a thread in the readers road bike section.

It is going in the bikes for sale section shortly - £50.

Otherwise it'll be Ebay bound.
