And the serial number is 532! That means 1948-49. Nice!

Thank you for sharing this frame number information. Hope you don’t mind I have copied to my post about an Allin I have just bought (and a link to this). I am trying to keep all the information I can find in one place. https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/allin-stan-butler.490612/page-2

Do excuse the fact storage, it feels like a good place to find it in one place at a later date. https://www.classiclightweights.co.u...ycles-croydon/ Frame numbering was sequential starting with 500 (1946?) through to 2401, the last recorded number dated as 18/6/1981 in the surviving frame...

Lol. I got lucky, did you see the length of that post, if that had furred up it would have been difficult!

Just a very long one, with a very nicely rounded top. Reynolds.

Almost forgot. Brampton B88 pedals as well, sigh… Brampton B88 pedals

Looked at the serial number on the left rear drop out. Difficult to make out, as usual the nut has scored the numbers but I see 532. What do you see? Allin SB

Lol. I will let you know how the seat post wiggle dance goes…..I am hopeful…as always!

Well this very nice time warp Allin turned up not far from me for sale, I had a day off, so thought why not? The seller explained it was his father’s bike who had bought it new from Allin in the 50’s from Whitehorse Road. These pictures are from eBay because it was dark by the time I got home...

If you don’t know the site go to https://nkilgariff.com/ Select drop down “models” then “Freddie Grub” then the catalogue year. Amazing site.

This is the best site for CB, Holdsworth & Freddie Grubb identification. Get the frame number, look it up under “Frame number” and then look at the catalogue. The forks should also have the serial number on the stem. https://nkilgariff.com/ I have a 1959 CB European which has the same lug...

https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2002/dec/04/thegear.danrookwood Anyone got more information about the Raleigh Fervent? The article above is the only on-line I have found (22 years old!). Where I work this was thrown in the bins and even though I am more into classic road I couldn’t let it...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radium_Girls I agree with your thoughts on T&M btw!

What is it about that little shelf between the mid box and the roll cab? It is so handy and amazing what you can fit on it…….and so annoying having to move everything to open the mid box draw…!

Who could not know a Jef (with one “F” in his name dropped because it made him lighter)….always makes me laugh.

This reminds me if Ogris girlfriend Mitzi! Lol.

If I now win the lottery I will start a magazine called Rusted Crap Quarterly, (that gave me my morning chuckle)….It would work, I can not resist rusted cheap crap, and I am not alone.

Generally I agree. I use heat if I can, or in extreme cases of rust drop said item in a bucket of phosphoric acid and come back a day later (don’t try this with alloy). Rust eaten, item free to move. I have been trying this mix with oils, and it works,but need to get atf (and something really...

You could try acetone/atf mixture. “In 2007 "Machinist's Workshop Mag. tm" published information on various penetrating oils including subjective tests of many of the popular penetrants. The following list is the results of their test with the control being the torque in- foot pounds required...
