WTD: Roadster style bike with rod brakes.

As the (edited) title says..

Roadster style bike with rod brakes, chain & mud guards, relaxed head angle, which I'm guessing would make it a 1950/60's bike or earlier? Also considering a delivery bike if the price is right.

Let me know what you've got, I'm pretty flexible when it comes to condition? I'm based in Bromley, Kent an would travel a fair distance for the right bike, or I could arrange for a courier to collect if it's further away?

PM me an I'll give you my email address for photos.

Many thanks & kind regards

Sorry, yes a gents bike.

I'm 6 foot tall, so not a small frame. An prefer something with a relaxed head tube angle, I guess that would make it an old'ish bike?

But interested in seeing whats available.

Cheers chap! Just PM'ed him so fingers crossed.

Looks like I could do with 2 now tho, dad wants 1 too!..
 
I have a tatty Elswick-Hopper. It's from 1970, and very much at the utility end of things. But it has a really nice original headbadge etc.

A reasonable powdercoat in black would sort it out a treat. I could do £15 plus postage for frame, forks, chrome bars, stem, headset and cottered BB with 46T chainset. The chainset is pretty worn, mind.
