Distinguishing features
FW Evans touring bicycle. Hand built in their London workshop in the mid-1990s. I bought it from their shop on The Cut, in Waterloo in 1996, and brought it to Seattle. (I am very fond of this bike.) Reynolds 531 Designer Select frame. Campagnolo 3x8 speed drive-train with Veloce rear derailleur, Mirage brakes and front derailleur. Cinelli bars and stem. Front and rear fenders. Blackburn, rear rack. This is a well-loved, very well-used, old-school warhorse with lots of dirt, scratches and dings.
