That's a great start for a rebuild....just needs a few bits.

That poor Brooks wont last long clamped like that! Pitty if it snaps.

Too far forward you think?

Wrong clamp. That's for a pillar not a post....so a old skool twin bolted clamp. Thats a pretty new " etc" post.

The bikes a fairly early knights cycles version too. Hence the "k" on the bridge. When they were bought up that disappeared by the end of 84.......see.....gone!

But....the knight remained on the saracen badge.....

Ah you’re right, I have the old ones on some early Peugeot’s that look right. Wouldn’t be too difficult to find something suitable.

St johns street cycles sells the pillars for £10 or so...
