Here is the link to the register that ScottW has put together. It is always going to be a 'work in progress' and as such subject to change. I'm not sure whether to lock this thread and people just PM Scott to keep it tidy, or to open up this thread and then Scott would take your details from here and add to the register?

Excellent work Scott! Actually doing what had been talked about for (really) years. I must up-end my bikes this weekend and get you some more data. Do you intend to sort the bikes by model? by year? by type (Aerospace fillet brazed/Aerospace lugged/English not Aerospace/Taiwanese &c? One very minor point, I take it you mean large flange hubs by LF hubs? There's possible confusion with the alternative names low flange / high flange (LF/HF) - I suggest using the latter.

My new Grand Sport Aerospace frame: all white (once), steel lugged half chrome forks. Number is 109506. Above the number there are three (I think) badly stamped letters: P O and then a big space, then R.
A couple more things we could track: drop outs (front ones here are SunTour, can't see anything on the back ones) and how the gear cables are routed round the bb. This one has a clamp on thingamejig that needs a short length of outer to connect with the front mech. Others have brazed on routing or clamp-ons with little wheels, which don't need any cable outer to connect to the FD.
Edit. And it is a 23" (58cm) frame C-T. Top tube is the same C-C.

For info - these came out of a feature in a cycling magazine from the time 
EDIT- there's mistake on here. I think Deore 18 is 28llbs NOT 18? |

I have messaged Scott separately but thought everyone might like to see these: Corsair Wayfarer Gold 200742 Another James Bond bike? Aerospace Sport(?) Early one - integral seat tube clamp. Silver/grey with black detailing. Alloy forks. 542194 Brazed on gear cable stop on down tube and guide on bb shell. It had been converted to single speed so no derailleurs or shifters and straight bars fitted. Viscount brakes, stem, seat pin, cranks and chain wheel. Viscount hubs & Nisi Evian clincher rims. BB replaced with something from SKF.   |
