Beauty.

TT 53 cm...it may fit me...as I cycle a vintage road bike with 51 cm TT and 10 cm stem...

There, you'd done it now

Having looked at the replies on the listing from the serial number it would seem to be a 520S looking at the Audax 853 Brochure the virtual top tube is 52cm so even closer to your vintage road bike.
It would also be a good fit for Jags.

Hi
I contacted the sellers. They kindly upturned and read off the serial number and size- it is indeed a 520s.

looks a nice frame but would need a respray and the groupset is a bin job
hate to see a bike thats not looked after.

I didn't bid due to the TT being listed as 21". Argh!

Ah well my XTC can carry a lot more ^_^

But a bit bummer as 52CM is perfect and the bit of wear/tear is fine, brakes are cheap.

What do you mean jags? That's perfectly normal a few scuffs, you don't need repaint unless the paint is so fubarred there's no more rust protection.
