Hello Doug,

Thanks so much for sharing this outstanding Holdsworthy information. Much appreciated here.

As to Agrati ends. Did not intend to identify subject frame's dropouts as Agrati. My error in not writing more clearly. Since the fork ends are Agrati marked it seems a possibility that the dropouts are theirs as well but I have no hard information.

The ends set seen on the Cordon Bleu model was used widely by British makers in the 1950's and early 1960's. Have an unknown British 1950's era frame with them hanging in me racks. The forum has had a Rattray posted recently with them also. I do not know a name or model number for this set. My one Agrati resource is an undated catalogue, which from internal clues, I take to be near to 1970. It depicts a simple stamped ends set similar to the various models done by Francolam. There is also depicted a replica of the Campag 1010 set termed the "CORSA." The set seen on the subject bicycle and the set seen on the Cordon Bleu are not shown so I take them to have been discontinued by the time of the catalogue's publication.

Thank you again for your information.
