Whichever the right term for it is, I have a Mercian Cycle Path racer for sale. It is 57 cm ct on the seattube; 54 cm cc on the toptube. It has toptube rear brake guide braze-ons; drilled for front and rear. Reynolds 531.

I will sell two different ways, depending upon what an individual buyer wants. either as a comple bike described as follows or as a frame and fork, or I suppose anywhere in between.

As a complete bike: Stronglight 49 single chainwheel crankset, Lyotard Berthod pedals, 40 spoke Harden(I'm not absolutely certain of that; it's unmarked) flip-flop hub laced to a Fiamme tubular rim; 32 hole small flange FB hub, laced to a Nisi tubular rim; ttt handlebars and stem; Weinmann levers with gum hoods and a Universal sidepull rear brake (I probably have the matching one for the front, if you want it); NR seatpost with Brooks B-17 saddle. Overall it's in very good condition, very good paint: Complete bike $675.00 plus shipping.

Frame and fork: $300.00

I am selling this only because today my Hetchins of the same ilk arrived from Griff Spooner.

I have jpegs for those interested.

Thank you.

Cheers.
