Mercian on BBC News Derby.

My first lightweight, bought second hand in 1981, orange and white, Suntour bits and bobs on. Plentiful here in Ireland back then. Very popular. Stephen Roche had one in his teens.

That title belongs to Jeff Bowler.

They have apparently stopped producing the flag ship model the Vincitore . A lot of hand filing to make to beautiful lugs .I have retired mine as I have worn it out .
I wonder it the lugs could be saved .
Re built it would be like triggers broom.
