Monday can be a good day

Crikey that is nice. Sublime nice. What an absolute labour of love it must have been for the builder to turn something like that out.

Call me pedantic, but I doubt those cables are original and are far too long.

Anyone clever here could tell me the lugless BB construction? Is it with tightly finished internal lugs then filed?

Brake cables are indeed new as is bar tape and tyres. Rest is all as it was back in 1950 or so.

Amalgam tech is basically electro welding. That was ahead of time, perhaps that’s why so many had cracked.

The paint, box lining and those filigrane transfers are something else, I have not even cleaned the bike. Must’ve been living in a warm room all it’s life.
