Re:

I've never even heard of a 'Ribble' frame, are they British made?

incidentally, in order to post photos, you have to go through a photo sharing site (to shrink the files).

Ribble are a shop and they sell bikes and frames under their own brand: http://www.ribblecycles.co.uk/component ... ks/frames/, much like Merlin Cycles, Planet X and On One.

The frames are almost certainly sourced from one of the manufacturers in South East Asia, but so were most big brand name frames since the 80s. When frames are actually made in the UK, US, Italy, or anywhere outside South East Asia most brands tend to shout about it.
