I actually am wondering if this isn't actually an International or Gran Sport in disguise. It's hard to tell since so many parts have been changed out and it has clearly been re-painted or touched up by hand. I did roughly 28mi on her last night and she's wonderfully smooth and compact for such a Lg frame size. Quite a plush ride.

Some weird things on top of the super comfy ride quality:
Low serial number with absolutely no letter on rear dropout- "0002XXX"
Original owner appears to have changed out the 27" sew-up's for 27" clinchers and thankfully saved the hubs.
"Professional" on top tube is placed in a very strange location.
Unknown head tube lugs (Which I very much like)

Made in Nottingham? Forgery? Who knows.... I'm thinking it will make a superb Randonneur though.
