I spoke to Rob at Bicycle by Design today to finalise material & component choices for the new frame.
Reynolds 853 tubing:-
- 34.9mm down tube
- 28.6mm top and seat tube
- 36mm head tube for a 1 1/8″ headset and A-head stem
The lug set will be from Llewellyn Bikes to give a 6deg sloping top tube. This allows for a large frame but with handlebars at a sensible height without too many spacers.
