1969 English Witcomb 61cm
I have a Witcomb frame and fork for sale. My computer is a bit wonky right now, but you can view it on Chicago CL.
The frame is 61 c-t, and 58cm c-c on the top tube.
The frame has been reworked and repainted. Thru the top tube cable routing, braze-on frt derailleur, and shift levers. Also brake holes have been altered to accept recessed brake mounting.
Very nicely built frame with long wrap around seatstays. Fork with sloping crown. It's a real classic from a classic frame builder.
I'll try to get pics up shortly.
Frame only - $150 plus shipping
As shown with Mavic cranks, NR derailleurs, SR seatpost, $350 plus shipping.

I don't know that much about Peter Wiegle or Richard Sachs. I see their names mentioned quite often on the forum. These guys learned their craft in England at Witcomb cycles in the early 70's.
This frame is the real deal English made Witcomb, 1969.
Glad to answer any questions.
