hi anyone have any ideas on the original frame builder. just to add to the challege the paint job may have been shot blasted and resprayed, as paint job is peeling off. unfortunatly there are no indications of a badge or model.
the frame number is stamped on the bottom bracket AM53073
the seat tube is an unuasually large size at 24 3/4" (630mm), maybe a customised frame.
the frame is badged with reynolds ti 531.
bb measures 2 3/4" (70mm).
fitted with mafac centre pull brakes and a stronglite crank, also shimano 600 levers.
lugs have a heart shaped cutout.
the forks are 1" threaded and significantly have a lamp braze on on the right.
any ideas and suggestions to the origin most welcome.
