heres a bike I had for ages which was originally badged as a Claud Butler but the serial number is only 4 digits. I've spoken to the guys at Ellis's Briggs and they replied it looks like one of their frames but no further info yet.
Was toying with campy stuff but went for the trusted shimano 600 arabesque gear. Newish wheels and a stronglight crank to put on should make this a fine steed. Haven't fully decided on seat and handlebar covers yet but I may keep the wrights saddle and put some bespoke leather covers on the handlebars in brown.
New dual pivot long reach brakes on order so it won't get finished till next week at the earliest.
