The Gillott discussed on ebay is a typically elegant Spear lugged model with
straight tubes. The Taper tubes from Reynolds were seen by Gillotts as an
answer to strengthen both physically and visually the frame for the tall
rider. Most Gillott Taper tubed frames are 24" or above. Smaller ones than
that are very rare. There was no specific model named "Tapertube". This
misnomer is a recent "collectors" phrase. It was just the tubeset that they
recommended for big frames of any particular model or use.
