531 dawes but bloke doesn't know what hes selling by the sounds of it. Only says 531 in the questions so might be a bargain.

Christ, I'd have been all over that if I'd spotted it!

Erm there's no 'eBay Oddities' thread so ... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/HAND-BUIL...0828141110?pt=UK_Bikes_GL&hash=item2c6e3e5a36

No brakes
Steers from behind using a handle
A plastic children's chair for a seat

It's not a BSO - it's a narrowboat on wheels!

[Kins]

Just a bit!

Do you steer with your hands above your head, strange???

And why do people still think WRITING IN CAPITALS is acceptable?

Frame is in Crewe, less than an hour from me. Good job that the frame at 24 inches is just a little too large . Looks as if it has a Stonglight 99 or 100 chainset - they usually fetch a decent price on Ebay.

That's lovely but the photos make my soul sad.

Me too, that frame could form the basis of a very decent bike for some tall fella.

God knows why, according to Strava I regularly make a stop off in Ghana on my three mile commute to work

A chance at some very very crap history!

A Dawes frame for someone who wants a serious amount of work type project. The scroll work on the head tube lugs is a thing of true beauty. I would have been interested if I hadn't just been doing up my Raleigh.
