Custom built by John Hollands in Reistertown Maryland. "Invicta Custom" frame. Seat tube: 56 C-T (top of lug) 55 C-C; top tube: 55 C-C. Full lugged 531 butted tubes and fork blades. Mavic headset. Short reach, recessed brake mounting. Bosses for two water bottle cages and DT shifters. Takes a 27.0 seatpost.
The frame has one ding on the right chainstay and numerous chips/ scratches. It has a brazed on tab for a number, and the name "J. Deaton" on the top tube- which is a pretty good indication that it was raced (I am a master of the obvious). Silver fade paint. Superbe Drops- at least in the rear. Sakae fork crown. Just coated with Weigle's. This would make a great fixie, winter ride or KOF restoration project. $400 shipped. Also interested in KOF or Italian trades- 53 cm or 54 cm. Contact me off list if interested.
