Found this frame on eBay France. First year for the Reynolds 531 frame. From 1952 through 1957 the PLX 10 had a Vitus frame. The paint has seen much better days but, instead of repainting, I decided to preserve the original finish and build with correct components. Wheels and tires are new and make this bike very rideable and reliable.
