...I have one similar frame, that I restored here, not to original, but what I thought was pleasant. It was kind of a mes when I got it, so I never did figure out what it was originally. But they made that wrap over stay, three tubes straight gauge Reynolds frame in many iterations over the years. AFAIK, from looking at a lot of them, they differed only in livery and component package. I, too, think it punches above its weight class in terms of ride. But I didn't build it up to go fast.
