Vintage Walley Green Racing bike I need to find out if its 50s or 60s. Lots of info on Walley green himself but not racing bikes to compair. Reynolds 531 Steel frame with Single boss for down tube Gear lever. Bayliss Wiley Bottom Bracket. Wheels to fit 27x1 1/4. Handlebars and stem ITM . Not sure its in the 60s. Do want to rebuilt the bike and need the Estimate year or Era. Serial number 3577 Under bottom bracket.

The Reynolds sticker is 1950's-early 1960's and indicates it is the main triangle is non-butted 531. I think i am right with this info.

I think it is a 50's frame, but i am far from an expert. Looks good and comfy with a lovely patina, too.

I guess you have seen that there is a good deal of info on the Classic Lightweights website, for Wally Greene. Info about the shop, frames, racing etc
