To keep this months RBotM on it's unofficial theme I present the third and final (I'm not going to fiddle wiith it again - honest) build of my 1930s Selbach.
It's one I never intended to build - then I never intended to keep it but 3 years later I think it's gained a pretty permanant place in the gararge, and it rides so nicely.
Original build thread is here which I will update later tonight.

Whats not to like? Selbach was ahead of his time, it's a stunner.

Blimey.

These gorgeous 30's bikes with gold decals against black must be a bit like London buses; you wait and wait for one then three appear at the same time

- Now I see that better in the 2nd picture. Got worried for a moment either my eyes or TV set needed adjusting.

Wowser, lovely machines. Let me add couple of mine to add to the prewar theme.

Mid 1930's EF Russ. The previous owner had done all of the hard work, renovated chrome and paint, sourced the appropriate parts - some of which must've been quite expensive to be had, like FB hubs married to Constrictor alloy rims etc. So not sure if I should get any recognition for it at all! Well I did replace outer cables to match the head transfer colour

How can we choose

I'm loving this months entries - so far!
Foreigners E F Russ has just confirmed what I already knew - that my Selbach has E F Russ forks fitted!
