    Age of Holdsworth frame

    Hilton Wrigley Bikes or Marsden

    Hi there, I was wondering if anyone out there out there owns, or knows anyone that owns a Hilton Wrigley bike in any condition they were thinking of selling? My father had one of these bikes built for himself many years ago, and I would love to be able to buy one for us to renovate together...
