I've got no idea what it is, but a few observations https://www.nkilgariff.com/FrameNosTemp.htm The easiest way to date a Holdsworth, Claud or Grubb is to start with the frame number. This can give a very good indication of when the frameset was made and sometimes much more...

I've only used tubular for the last 3 years: Vittoria Rubino 28mm with Orange Seal. Only 3 flats 1) Before I discovered sealant 2+3) You're supposed to top up sealant, but 1oz did last a year. So basically no flats that weren't my fault, riding in London.

Looks like the Veloflex range is now ProTour: 23, 25, 28 ProTour race: 23, 25 Record (time trial): 23, 25

Morning Folks, I discovered tubular tyres 3 years back when I bought a 1982 Holdsworth Avanti with Mavic Monthlery Route rims on it. Tried some very cheap Tufo S3 and they were horrible, then tried Vittoria Rubino and I loved them. So I've been using Vittoria Rubino 28mm for the last 3 years -...

If you're talking New Winner it's one body for 5 / 6 / ultra 6 / ultra 7. But some of the cogs are different - generaly the smallest 1 or 2. But Ultra 6 and Ultra 7 have the same spacers. If you look closely it's all explained on the bottom row of that chart. Also note "teeth mark must face...

I'm running SunTour New Winner Ultra 6 on a 1961 Holdsworth Cyclone (121mm dropout). SunTour Cyclone II GT + 13-15-17-19-24-32 on the back / SunTour Cyclone I + TA 52/36 + Stronglight 49D on the front It works damn fine. I got the parts on Ebay - 2 or 3 freewheels at about £10-20 a go. The New...

You could always try french Ebay or similar. I got some Mafac Racer (long) from somewhere mid-south of France and they were reasonably priced even with post. Communication was minimal though - they may well not speak english. A quick search: https://www.ebay.fr/itm/364898502983 13.2 euro but...

This looks like the right set: https://www.ebay.com/itm/315085607348 But way too much money: reduced from $150 lol.

If it's Mafac racer style I just got a cheap shift cable and cut it to length. One of the Mafac centre pulls has fixed length stradle cables - 'competition' I think.

Hadn't heard of 'maes stratalite', I presumed 'maes' was something to do with GB, but nope it's Strata: https://www.classiclightweights.co.uk/classic_components/the-strata-engineering-company/ Which was around at about the same time. Apparently (Ebay) maes stratalite was about 37cm ctc (14.6")...

I replaced the jockey wheels on my SunTour Cyclone II a couple of years back (10 teeth) - I run them on 2x7 and 2x6 at the moment. Here's my original thread: https://www.bikeforums.net/classic-vintage/1255815-suntour-jockey-wheel-upgrade-bbb-rollerboys-bdp-01-a.html I did have to add a couple of...

Crossposting from Bikeforums.net because it's a nice article. Helped me out a bit when I was trying to create Holdsworth Red Pearl for my 1961 Cyclone. Also asked Mario Vaz - he said Red Pearl arrived in huge drums from Switzerland, so no idea how to mix it :(. A Visit to Holdsworthy Ltd...

Can't quite see which direction it's curved in, but here's a 1961 Holdsworth Cyclone:

1940s Holdsworth (probably), but no idea what model, and it's £25 so far. Also covered in black sh*t. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/355675983010 From https://www.nkilgariff.com/Models.htm Pre WW2 all Holdsworths had clip type headsets except L'Internationale. This model was new for 1939 and had...
