I'm forwarding this message to the list for a fellow iBOB and former member of this list, Tom MacDonald. Please respond directly to him as I know nothing about the bike save what's below. Wish it was my size <smile>.

I have a nice track frameset I'd like to sell. It's a Hugh Porter, made of Reynolds 531 tubing and nice long-point lugs. This frame was made in England, I'm guessing in the mid-1970s. It measures 58 x 58 center-center, with 73.5 degree parallel angles. This geometry would make for a GREAT fixed road bike, except it isn't drilled yet for brakes. It has plenty of clearance for road tires and brakes. Color is red with a white downtube panel (my favorite combination!). I'm asking $200 for the bare frame/fork and I actually have most of the original Campy parts for it. I'm asking $600 for the complete bike, and I have jpeg photos.
