Help identify Pursuit/Lo-Pro frame
I just purchased this frame. All I know about it is it is a Kenevans frame from Austrailia and is late 80's. Apparently it was made with Reynolds 753R tubing (can't be to bad). Has anyone seen this paint job on a frame or possibly know anything about it? I have searched the internet and found absolutely nothing. I have also emailed Ken Evans but have not heard from him yet. It is possible that someone made this paint job up, but it seems familiar.

Pretty sure that's a Kenevans frame (possibly from Australia and late 1980's.) Looks like it was made with Reynolds 753R tubing (which can't be too bad). The paint seems familiar. What more do you need to know? Maybe send an email to Ken Evans...
Sorry - just yanking your chain, here. But what more do you need to know?

Is it an original paint job? Was there really a Coors Light team pursuit bike? Is this one of them? How many were made? What were the original parts? If it is truly a Coors Light racing team bike I would like to put back to original but I need to know what original was for this frame.

Any possibility of asking the seller this info or can he pass you on to his seller?

Definitely high quality with the 753 tubing and Cinelli BB shell.
Actually lots of Lo Pro bikes out there with lower tier tubing like Alle and Tretubi tubesets, so this one is a great catch!
