I have to admit, I'm ever so slightly jealous.
Looking forward to seeing this one restored to its former glory!

How did I miss this? My unicorn. And the right size. Lovely

Re:

Is that really SB58 and size 62? One of the first frames to come out of Ilkeston if that is the case...

Re:

Certainly is, I've compared it to slightly earlier and later bikes ( no7 and 116) and it ties in perfectly. Probably made in the first two to 3 weeks of Ilkeston opening
