1952 Johnny Berry (No459) - complete bike

[PaulBecks]

Hi everyone.

I'm reluctantly looking to sell my '52 Berry. Trust me, there are a number of things i'd gladly hand over before this!! It's been stored since i aquired it as a 'basement find' and is prime for an easy restro project.

Frame No. 521459 making it the 459th frame built by the great man, around the era where his frames had a 2 year waiting list!

Frame sizing is 22.5in seatpost to headtube and in very good condition for a 60 year old! There's some light surface rust in places but nothing major.

As in the title, this is a complete bike and has the following;

* Brooks Champion Flyer B15
* GB Coureaur Plus brakes in blue
* GB Superhood Plus levers in blue
* Williams cranks
* GB 531 stem
* GB Type Professional toeclips
* Benelux gears
* BH Airlites
* Bluemel Noweight guards

I'm based in Manchester and would be happy for people to view the bike either here or at a mutually agreed location. I'll also reluctantly post with the cost to the buyer.

Can i ask for offers on my bike via my email, [email protected] please

More images on request, no problem.

I'm interested but the forum rules require a price. If you could post a price then I could let you know.

 

[PaulBecks]

Yeah i know but i wass doing my best to avoid putting a price on something i'm attached to!!

I need £300. The bike's worth more given the components and history etc...

(Sorry Johnny, your work is priceless in my eyes)

Cash, Bank Transfer or Paypal 'gift' please.

Cheers
Paul

Fantastic looking steed. Be great to post pics of components -thing this will clinch it for you.

 

[PaulBecks]

Yep, it's definately a 'holy grail' bike... for me anyway!

 

[knowthejo]

never seen Blue GB Couriers... very nice indeed. Needs loving restoration this one. Wowzer.

 

[PaulBecks]

Yeah the blue is nice..

Apart from the anodising and a bit of surface rust here and there it's just very dirty and needs a good de-grease.
