- -Built by Andy Thompson (formerly of Thompson Bicycles of Huddersfield and Orbit) for Whiteburner Products (who were a bike parts distribution company IIRC).
-Very late 80s until around '94 (?)
-Confusingly, nothing to do with US framebuilder and cycling author Lennard Zinn.
-Married to national pursuit champ Maggie Thompson in the 80s, then later Isla Rowntree (cyclo-cross champ, Halfords and Islabikes).
-Reynolds tubing, often 753, built lugless with smooth, but un-filed small fillets.
-Often feature the Sturmey-Archer cable roller at the seat cluster to a top pull front mech
-Saw my first one in a little bike shop in Keighthly back in around '91 while I was buying some Pace RC35s.
-He's not built frames in a couple of decades, but is still a member on here and a few other cycling fora: Featch.
-Featured in Mint Sauce strips....
-Now makes some extremely chunky steel furniture with his son in Cradeley Heath.
All the best,
