Hi Shaun

thanks for the information, is the purple version a one off colour scheme or is it one of there main colours, are there many of these frames around?

Neil
 
Is it really purple, or is it Lilac & Black?

lilac & Black were Witcomb's racing colours.

Witcomb's have a bit of a cult following in SE London - they were made in Deptford until a couple of years ago.

I've got a few of their frames.

Please post a picture of yours.
 
Not to sure, defiantly going to strip it down and clean it up, see what it comes up like, do you think it's worth much (ie collectable)

Neil
 
To be honest, they are 'collectible', but tend not to fetch high prices.

If you are thinking of restoring it, it might be an idea to contact the boys at the Union Cycle Workshop, they do like a Witcomb.

Good look with it.
 
I've got somebody interested in buying the frame from me, but I'm not sure what to ask for it, any ideas?
