Retro Newbie
Early 50's with the rare pear shaped cage.
Complete with wheels and tyres all (3) 26 1&1/4" extra brake for behind fork fitting, Not many of this early type about Trike or conversion. Needs a frame for 26" wheels or rebuild into 700's or 27's. Was fitted to a Sun frame until this afternoon but I needed a fifties bike so con-set had to come off. I have my other trikes so I'll cope. The rims on the con set are Dunlop Special lightweights recently rebuilt, the front probably 1980's? Rigida. Single speed with original chain (tired but ready to go) It was designed to be a single speed so no gear hanger fittings, but you can get a slow change by using the bike frames dropout if you wanted or use some imagination? Brake is a Mafac Racer.
Anyway not cheap I admit but there aren't many of this particular type about. £250 for the set (not the Sun bike that's for illustration)
