So, it's all plated and then painted? Cunning. Why didn't I think of that? (no answer necessary).

Front end and rear end are dipped separately. Some frames are completely chromed though. Like this Alex Singer now in the not French thread

This is an epic thread. Far too many amazing machines to pick out favourites. I've worked through from page 1 to now and... wow. Thanks for putting it together.

You are welcome mate, my pleasure. Glad you are enjoying the bicycles.

Hetchins Brilliant, looks to be quite early with a head clip headset. Set up with what I assume is a Sturmey Archer ASC fixed 3 speed hub, as it only has a front brake.
