An interesting Alan Shorter time trial frame on offer:

http://ebay.com/<blah>

Not an eBay "outing" (not my auction and shipping only to the UK anyway), but merely to point out an interesting late 70s, early 80s time trial frame short wheelbase design from this well known firm. Possibily a Barry Chick. My Shorter/Barry Chick tt frame (which should be finished and on the road in a few days) is no. 1479 which I estidated as being c. 1982, this is no. 1319 and said by the seller to be "one of six made" in this style. A repaint but with authentic Shorter decals, Suntour drop-outs and like my Shorter, no idea as to if its Reynolds or Columbus tubing. Of the Shorters on eBay and offered by Hilary Stone over the last year or so, each one has been of entirely different frame design.
