This is a bit of a puzzle - head tube is exactly the same as an Major Nichols but apparently its not one
its been labelled as a Rotrax but not that either...
It is very old possibly 1960 or early 70's
GB stem and handlebars
531 Steel frame in Chrome all over
Size 22" from seat post to crank
23" top tube size - i'm 5"11 and its suits me
Nerves Lugs stamped : 61 64 D22 E38 could be F38 at the end here
Campag front hub drilled like a pepper pot
French Rear and Simplex Rear Derailleur
Sugino Single large crank and gear lever on the downtube
Weismann Brake levers
Shimano brakes (although have sourced Weinmann's)
Wrights Saddle - worth a bit
Continental glued on tyres - brand new.
So negatives - wheels need truing but they are old
Name of manufacture is a mystery
What else can I say ? For sale £375 or offers in the region of...
contact me on lucastefano01@hotmail.com for further info
This is not a con - if anyone can ID this bike great let me know as I can't get bashed any more by people telling me what its not without assisting me to tell me what it could be.
The nice people just say its a nice bike
