1959 Holdsworth Monsoon.

Apparently the Monsoon fork crown changed a few times.
Here's the history: https://www.nkilgariff.com/HoldsModelPages/Monsoon.htm
I think it unlikely that we will find a spare set of forks, so it will have to go with what it’s got. Just waiting for a few more parts before I build it up. It’s going to be a mix of parts some later than the bike, if it had the original forks I might have tried to keep with same period parts.

@Psimpson Monsoon forks - I left this frameset with Mario earlier this year, he may still have it..

Dry run of components before building up, Holdsworth transfers a little low on the down tube.
