Terry dolan Cougar 653 abilita 753
- Thread starter brandz
- Start date
I haven't been able to learn much about Abilita, They were built in Sturminster Newton in Dorset in the late 80s and early 90s by a guy name Paul Wilkin or Wilkins who also owned a bike shop, Pauls Cycle Services.
He was evidently no mug, you had to have a licence from Reynolds to build with 753
I think that's a delta brake on the front of your cougar, they are worth a fair amount of money on their own....

Yup, campagnolo delta
Campagnolo being the maker, Delta being the design
they're worth good money, but not great as actual brakes, if it were mine i'd sell it and use the money towards the resto and fit a standard caliper.

Ahhhhh I get u now... The Cougar had a full campagnolo set up on it... Would would the brake be worth? At some point I will upload pics of all the parts... Now I have an app to resize pics... The abilita had a shimano and dura ace crank and rings then the rest was campagnolo
