What I found interesting was the post over the weekend about a Harry Quinn touring model. Unfortunately, the link to photos didn't work for me. I"ve never seen a Quinn toring model, rather always the small rake, short wheelbase racing frames he is known for.

Although this has a 126 mm rear spacing indicating 1970s what is puzzling is the rather old-fashioned brazed-on pump fitting on the seat tube. Perhaps the original owner was even more of a traditionalist than I am!
