The story was, it was a Reynolds bike that Jeff Shoemaker rode, I think he confused the wheels for the frame. He stripped all the components except the wheels. I needed a sturdy frame and wheels , so I saw a steel frame with 40 spoke wheels and went and took a look. The wheels are stout and the frame is steel. There doesn't appear to have been any decals or markings on the bike. The seat post they pulled out made my 400mm post look small.
