I got nice frame. but what is it?
I made a good deal on very nice frame.
Raw steel - previous owner states it was never painted and frame is probably made in 1970's. (it could also be professionally stripped and cleaned but I can not see any at all sign of paint even in deepest darkest hole...
No serial number or any factory marks on it , only two marks on seat lug, but one is R (on the right side) and other is <F l> (on the left side so that can be just mark for sides and front of lug... ) Frame could be custom made, is quite small and has campagnolo dropouts.
I'm thinking of leave it as a raw steel (just a bit of polish). at the moment I rubbed boiled linseed oil just in case but there is no signs of rust on that frame - if its really from 70's that is quite unusual - specially in irish wet conditions...
