Shouldn't be too hard to tell a Rickman from a Seeley - put a photo of it up, and let's have a look!

If I'm right, pairs of eccentric washers on the s/arm spindle? That's a Rickman feature.

As far as I'm aware, Seeleys all had adjusters at the rear wheel spindle.

And it looks like a Rickman frame!

So that's that then Smile

Thanks larry
i thought it was but was unsure and you are correct about the adjusters and how they work
