I Bought the bike for fairly low price, especially this is a handmade frame from the United Kingdom, with Reynolds 531C tubing, and very nice details (like seatstays), and very tight geometry. The frame is extremely light, and it has Campagnolo dropouts and undrilled brake bridge. The painting was crappy, I had to fix it at some places, and I had to change a lot of parts. I contacted Jason Rourke for some information about the frame, but he could not find info about this serial number, but he said that the frame they made after that, was made in 1982 spring.
