Bloody Hell I got a set of them off Whiskers back in 2008 for only £45 which were BNIB length 175 & still have the cranks minus the box but have never been mounted on any axle……

I've been lucky to find a few recently which I have been looking for and added to the project list. A Selbach Phantom, A Cyril Wren (built not far from me in Kingston) and a Dave Russell, also down the road in Slough.
I'd still like a 1920's Granby, I almost got one last year... I'd quite like a Carpenter too, but only ever seen one and it was too big.

I’ve a great affinity for Mercian, the superb quality is obvious to see. I bought a very cheap and rough KOM in the mid ‘80s and it’s liveliness and handling outperformed my Record Ace to a degree that was hard to account for (The RRA was a nice frame too).
Steve Elsworth’s frames and his approach to building has always appealed. - Wouldn’t say no to an MKM Ultimate either.
I’d also love a Ti Speedwell. (the forks are here, awaiting!)
