Æ's 1970's English Path Racer

In 2006 I got this frame and 2 sets of forks for £80. I rode this bike for the next 2 years and then sold it to a friend of mine. He rode this bike on the road as a messenger for the next 2 years and then sold it to his friend who rode it for a year. Then he sold it back to me for £100 without any forks. This frame set has seen so much action and is a testament to English frame build quality. I think it's made from Reynolds 531 awesomeness!!! Path Racers were fixed gear bikes for the road. You could fit mud gaurds, Brakes and they were longer for a comfy ride. The top tube on this is 56cm long center to center, the seat tube is 53cm.
