Hi
Does anyone have any recommendations for a budget touring frameset
(~£400, less if it's doable)? The Thorn Club Tour looks good - anyone
with firsthand experience here?
Cheers,
Mark

It looks like Thorn set their prices to sell bikes rather than frames.
The complete Club Tour is £250 more than the frameset, either the
frame is dear or the bike is cheap.
Byercycles do some decent touring frames from around £250

Bikeshed had some NOS Saracen touring frames in Reynolds 531

If you want something really traditional. Have a look at a Bob Jackson
World Tour, £360 in your choice of colour.
