Hi
Just in the process of building up a single speed.
Trying not to spend much.
More of using what I have.
The donor frame is an old Claud Butler.
Twist grip gears
No suspension.
Looked around and it looks like a Urraco.
Though no decals on my frame.
Anyone have any experience of these frames?
What sort of steel is it?
Is it worth changing?

For a good steel frame, 4.5-5lbs for a 'medium' size.0
