Jerry :

I'm betting Argos relies on Nick Tithecott (H Lloyds). http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/NICK_AT_LLOYDS/decals.htm#Order

I purchased the (almost) complete decalset from Lloyds. He no longer has the correct world colour seat tube banding for the 1969. I've lined up a decal resource who's willing to make me a set. I just wish I had thought to stop and measure before I removed the remnants of my now missing set of seat tube bands. With a little CR help, I'm just a detail or two away from "one less thing".

Kind Regards, Tory Werne Woodstock, GA USA

In the "small world, ain't it?" department, I bought a circa 1975 Holdsworth Team Pro frame from none other than the very same Mario Girasa we were just discussing. The frame had been newely restored by Argos in UK. This has been several years ago but perhaps they still have a source for decals.

If anyone can help, I'm searching for a dimension detail. This will be specific to a circa 1969 Holdsworth Team Pro (or custom model painted in team colours).
>From photos on Norman Kilgariff's wonderful Holdsworth website, http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nkilgariff/ it appears the seat tube banding is seven equal spaced bands (world colours plus upper and lower bands of white).

Can anyone confirm from ownership:

(1) are the seven bands indeed ALL equal width? (2) please quote the correct total band width (1"?) (3) please confirm - there's not a trace of separator line between the color bands (?).

Sincere Thanks
