Can any Ephgrave owners give me a hand dating a frame. It has no transfers or headbadge on it but I've been told it's an Ephgrave and it has the characters LE 1899 under the bottom bracket. I'm pretty sure Les Ephgrave wasn't building lightweights in the year before the 20th century so how do you interpret that number. The frame is very similar to this one on Dale's site: http://www.classicrendezvous.com/
