A nice 1960s Ephgrave frame, 23 1/2" seat tube C-T with a 23 1/2" top tube C-C. Campag road ends, Ephgrave pattern lugs (I think these are No. 2). Nice brazed on cable pulleys on top of the BB shell. Pump pegs on Down tube. Brazed on gear shifter bosses. Re sprayed and re transferred, not built up since. Steel headset fitted. Colour is a pale gold / yellow. Unfortunately there is a small crack (1/2") running down from the seat tube slot, a common fault on many frames. It looks to be quite old and does not appear to getting any worse. A small stress relieving hole could be drilled at the end off it (I can do this if you wish) should prevent it from ever getting any worse. Photos are available.

$394 US plus shipping.
