Hi,
Time to "de-cloak".
Finally managed to extract my dad's Freddie Grubb Tourmalet from his garage - it's been hanging there for at least thirty years - probably last ridden in the early seventies. Pictures to follow!
Since arrival some brake levers (old Weinmann) and saddle (temporary new Brooks) have been fitted. Also thrown on some cables and a chain - all works in principle, though brakes are scary - put this down to the ancient pads.
The brake pads are the original slotted ones (bit like the Fibrax ones at SJS, but with removable pads). Can you still pads that will fit the original carriers?
