1980 SB4059 Reynolds 753

SB4059

SB4059 is a mid to late 1980 Team Pro 753 Road frame built with Reynolds 753 Metric Tubing. This is the frame that started the blog. My research into this frame formed the basis of the information I was sharing about the SBDU. It is built to a 1980/82 TI-Raleigh Team spec, both detailed by Gerald O’Donovan.
