1973 23 " Raleigh Professional Reynolds 531 Steel Track Frame Vintage Fixie 58cm
Item History & Price
Beautiful and rare British track frame made from Reynolds 531 tubing. Plain lugs; Campagnolo fork ends and dropouts; chromed stays, dropouts and fork; Carlton cutouts on the bottom bracket shell.
It's in very good condition. There's one a small ding in the top tube but it's otherwise straight. It has been repainted at some point. Parts of the chromed rear stays must have been painted over and later uncovered as the chro...me is now pitted. The paint is useable, but it would be best off with a respray (in the original red/white/blue colour scheme IMO). The fork has been drilled for a brake.
It would originally have been fitted with a metal headbadge. I can supply one, should you want one.
