Seems to be a lot more viewers in this section, so apologies for a re-post.

I bought this Holdsworth frame cheap because it really needs a strip and respray. On closer inspection it seems to be a nice quality frame with some unusual details so I'm curious about age and model, and I'm thinking it deserves a nice rebuild.

The rear forks seem very thin, they taper to about 5mm diameter at the point where they are welded to the seat tube. I don't recall seeing forks attached to the main seat tube in this way before, although I'm no expert.

The lugs have some nice cut out details and there's a grease nipple on the frame for the bottom bracket. It must be quite a few years since grease nipples were used? The cable guides are brazed on.

The rear drop out is spaced at 120mm.

Unfortunately, there's no head tube badge. Someone has had their own name on the frame, Carole Jones and painted their initials where the headtube badge was.

There's an extensive site for Holdsworth but I can't find anything like this one on there or google. A useful bit of information I did read was that Holdsworth stamped the frame number on the fork blades tube as well as the bottom bracket.

I stripped down the headset and the number on the fork tube is 242, which seems a very short number as a frame number. I've cleaned the paint off the bottom bracket and it does have a corresponding 242 stamped on it. There are also a couple of other numbers on the BB along with British stamped in an arch. G5364 and what looks like SR23.

If anyone has any idea of the model or age, what running gear do you think I should use for a rebuild, I'd like to get the right period parts if I can.

Let me know if you need any other details to try and help ID it, and thanks for any help.
