Hello. Not sure if you saw above message when sent but just keeping in touch should you get photos of the Henry Lloyd frames mentioned in the thread especially if any come up for sale. Best regards David
Here are a few photos of my track bike. It is not badged up as a Henry Lloyd. It does not have any frame numbers. Apparently "Chalky" made this for himself. I was told he only made 30 to 35 frames. The last one he built with a mixed selection of lugs.
Was just doing a bit of research after collecting what was described as an unknown track bike today. After a very interesting conversation with the seller it is apparently a track bike built by "Chalky" for himself with the until recently owner buying it in the early 90s. Hardly used since by...
On my frame the number is stamped in for sure. Will double check to see if any further numbers are covered in paint and obviously check other areas and steerer
Ok. Thanks. I guess you can never be 100% sure. Apparently the lugs are Prugnat that have been modified by drilling and resemble a Cinelli lug. Some builders did do that sort of thing rather than leaving standard or building frim scratch.
Nice frame! Who resprayed it?
I have a Holmes of Welling...
Thanks. Any further info appreciated.
I doubt i will part with it any time soon but if i change my mind will let you know.
I think i was told it was from 1970 ish.
Will get steerer out at weekend and confirm. Thanks
