Falcon Majorca 531 Frame/Forks

[skybluestu]

Im the middle of restoring this bike to working order and wondered if anyone knew the age of it. It's got Suntor/Stronglight running gear and Shimano centre pull brakes.
Apart from scratches to the paintwork it now all runs great. Just waiting for some bar tape and possibly a new seatpost. Any ideas if it would be worth anything as well?!

Cheers

Please post up some pics.

I also own a Majorca. It's age is unknown although Ace Cycles in Harrogate dated the bike late 70's early 80's.

I worked in a bike shop in the 70's and early 80's and don't remember selling them at that time.

Before my time I think Falcon had a Majorca and perhaps they recycled the name in the later 1980's. Manufacturers tended to have names they used about every 20 years, The Viking Severn Valley springs to mind LOL

Re:

I remember them from my start out days with the CTC late 70's.

The chap I bought the bike off said it was early 90's but couldn't be sure which is why I asked ace, my lbs.
