I bought this frame last week and considered switching all the bits from the Scott onto it. I’m now discombobulated as to what to do. Probably hang both back up in the garage and ride a winter hack ( of which I have plenty) until I decide.

The man that said it was from Clitheroe but had been living in the Dordogne for twenty years running a campsite. It told him I’d lived there twenty years prior but then realised it was actually 40 years ago. tempus fugit
