They were on Cheltenham Rd, Bristol but now listed on google as permanently closed which is a shame. I used to go in regularly when I was at college although Bike Tech was my favorite Bristol shop.

"Now closed: Fred Baker Cycles had been selling cycles and accessories from the same site in Bristol since 1935. With a large workshop and service area had built up a formidable reputation with hundreds of satisfied customers. We loved bikes and cycling"

No frame building, had a few rebadged holdsworthy top frames around 1970.
