anybody recognise this fork ?

Fork came with a Bertin frame .
Definately non Bertin
Look familiar ?
Also an outline of an old decal on it .

I wondered where that went !






Sorry ! No !

I just had a look on the Flying Scot web site to see what their examples looked like . They were a bit similar but didn't have the fancy twiddly bits . They seemed to fit theirs in the late 40's to 50's period .
What date is your frame ?

hiya ,
The general consensus from the brains trust is that it is mid 60s .

Well I've looked at pictures of frame lugs and there doesn't seem to be many pictures of fork crowns which was the main identifying feature of my unknown frame . It turned out to be a Flying Scot . It had strengthening on the insides of the forks .
You may be lucky in seeing something similar just by chance .

That's the only way by trawling pictures of cycles and hopefully finding something similar .
