Well that cleaned up nicely! Steve’s elegant 1986 Dawes 531ST after a complete rebuild in our workshop. A real highlight amongst the onslaught of necessary repair work. New chain, cables, bar foam, tyres and crank bearings, plus a few stainless steel bolts – otherwise all stock. No fancy polishing, 8/10 nick as per customer’s wishes. Lived in a cellar for years. Rides like a dream on its silky Ofmega hubs. Note also beautiful Brooks Professional saddle, Mavic MA40 rims, Shimano 2×6 Light Action drivetrain with drilled Stronglight chainset, and proper Shimano cantilever brakes with Weinmann levers (fitted with rare replacement hoods we had in stock).
