I was recently lucky enough to pick up an old Dawes off ebay for a song. 653 frame & forks, & Shimano 600 components throughout. I converted it to a fixie and it goes like stink. A really, really fast ride - lovely bike. 9kg all told - and we're talking a large frame here - 65-66cm. It's called a Dawes Omega, and googling has revealed absolutely nothing - if anyone knows anything about it, I'd be very interested. (I'd guess it at late '80s...but it is just a guess.)
