Work of Art Bike = Bike of Artwork

Been researching one of my frames and came across these .....

 

 

Have you ever considered your frame to be a 1980s Raleigh Team Professional or Team TI?

Quite a few were made with the sliding lock seatpost clamp.

Thanks Eddie, this one seems to be the closest in terms of how the seat stays attach to the clamp itself rather than to the seat tube.

This is a close up of what we did with the downtube shifter bosses. The idea was to round them off so as to leave no sharp jagged edges. The shiny polished aluminium seems to "disappear" between the other equally shiny parts.

Does anyone know where I can get either downtube shifter boss covers or downtube shifter boss stops that I can convert as above?
