Subject: [CR]Tasty Gillott Road/Path on ebay

A heads up to the afficionado's of fine British frames. A 1959 Gillott road path with possibly the nicest rear dropouts I have seen. Not to mention the lugwork, Fork rake and crown. It has had the rear bridge DIY drilled a bit off centre (described as such) so it was originally built for front brake only. Certainly a TT bike. Classic kit would have been double fixed l/f Airlites on Fiamme sprints. A Stronglight 49d chainset, Campagnolo pedals and Mafac racer brakes. Cinelli steel stem and Maes bars. Brooks saddle. I have an almost identical bike from 1959 but a 23'' frame. Thats the kit that was on it. Plus Weinmann 'shorty' mudguards.
