SOLD

Selling a gorgeous 1980 Merican Olympic frameset that I purchased from the original owner. The serial number is '559 80' which translates to the 559th frame built in 1980. The frame and fork are butted Reynolds 531 (stamped on the steerer for confirmation) and built with beautiful long point lugs and Campagnolo dropouts with fender/rack mounts front and rear.

The top tube is 55cm ctc, seat tube is 54cm ctc and 55cm ctt, headtube 13cm with 120mm rear spacing (could cold set if desired). The was originally set up with 27" wheels, but the brake pads were bottomed out, so 700c should work fine with standard calipers, ymmv. The frame is super clean and in exquisite shape overall. The paint is a matte silver with navy blue lug lining and in great shape overall. There are a few small nicks that I tried to capture in the photos, but no dents at whatsoever. The Reynold seat tube decal and the 'i' on the seat tube "Merican" logo are rubbed from the pump, but invisible when it is installed.

Asking $250 shipped CONUS for the frame, fork, very clean Specialized headset and matching Silca Impero pump w/ Campy head (may need a new leather gasket).
