appart from the bars it looks nearly identical to an old dawes i had recently :?

My dad has finally given me this bike. I still have no clear idea on what it is. Maybe someone can have another look.

I think it may be 9825 77 stamped under the BB.
It has Rigida Superchromix 26" wheels on Pelissie hubs.

I don't think the wheels are original. I think it would have been a single speed. But I could be wrong.

Any info would be great.

Thanks

Early post war with the headclip...rear end looks wide enough and has five speed(?) fitted.

Blurry phot but the chainset looks like a Nicklin...components aren't always a reliable indicator of age.

I didn't think ClassicLightweights identified bikes - are there any numbers on the dropouts?

Rk.

Thanks for the reply RK.

I need a better cameraphone!!
I will try and get some better pictures and cover all the areas. i can't see anything on the dropouts, but I will double check.

Cheers for your help.
