Well, I was leaving for work this morning and there, sat with some other scrap metal was a bike. I'll admit, my first thought was, "Ooh, those wheels might do for my trailer project."
Even I recognised the name Moulton! Then of course the inevitable happened and I thought maybe I can save it instead? The frame looks quite tidy with the rear rim a bit of a shocker and no drive through the Sturmey Archer hub.
So I have a Raleigh made (I think) Moulton MK3 from the early 70s. I'm going to work on it in the loft as the wife isn't impressed with its current position in the kitchen.
Is the 3 speed hub likely to be dead or can they be worked on?
Here's a first pic as found.
