1978 SB1995 Reynolds 753

SB1995

SB1995 is a very early 1978 road frame built with Reynolds 753 Imperial Tubing. This frame was taken back to Ilkeston and renovated by them in 1983. It was then placed on a shelf in a cupboard for 36 years. The frame, paint and transfers have been perfectly preserved.
