Hetchins you say? In the same size as the others? Ever since selling one that was too small for me I’ve had half an eye out for one.

There's 2 Hetchins in the same sizes as the others.
I'll try and get the pics up tonight.
Bear with me though....

The Holsworth does it for me . £200 ish in present market

Somebody help me!!!
The Colnago with Gilco just on the down tube. My mind has gone blank. Which is that?
Reduces value, but it's still a Colnago and the chrome looks good.
Specialist market but £3/400?

Personally think these may need to be sold off much cheaper than the some of parts. I can't totally speak for the UK market, but it's accepted it's not moving much. There are some choice, desirable and some expensive parts on some of these bikes, but I do need to say each bike is a bit of a mish-mash overall in my eyes. Hope I haven't offended.

Pretty sure any buyer would split for parts they need, or rebuild according to their tastes, or just for the frame because it's their size. List individually with a reserve at £250 each or the entire lot for something like £2500 and see how it goes would be my advice.

Is the Lipscombe a mish mash , the only curious thing I spot on it are Shimano down tube cable stops . I think it's a good looking bike .

@squirrelchaser Sorry. No idea.....not my retro specialism!
I know it was a good looking bike when we got it out in the sun to photograph. Looks much newer than it's 1964 vintage.
John was very definate on it's year. He used it as his time trial bike in his Racing prime....hence the bar end shifters.

What do you think it's worth?
