The British bike thread

[Guinessisgoodforyou]

(First British bike was a Raleigh Arena with 24" wheels & 5-speed Huret gearing - got through a few miles of paper rounds.)

The John Perks is something of the blueprint we would only dream about in the early 80s & never afford: 531db, centre-pulls, Suntour, B17, & l/f hubs.
Tubing & frame building from the cycling heartland of Brum. Frame angles measured at 73/73.5 - handling is fantastic.
