531 ST Double Butted: Bought new in 1992 as a 'fast tourer'. Still going strong AFAIA. Do it all bike, with 32mm tyres +/- muguards. Good ride. 72 deg HA
501 (1988) Built up in 2021 from a good condition frame. Do it all bike, 28mm tyres. Good ride, but steeper head angle. 74 deg HA.
531ST: Stealth / gravel /summer mode
