B. Carré / Andre Bertin History

[woodbutchmaster]

l am fortunate enough to have come across a Carré frame and fork which l am in the slow process of restoring . Naturally enough l have consulted the "fount of all knowledge" on the subject. Jim at Bertin Classic Cycles. He tells me that l have a top of the range Carré either built for his own customer or for Andre Bertin . Anyone interested in these makers could do no better than consult this web page. https://bertinclassiccycles.wordpress.com/category/bernard-carre/

There is a c1953 Bertin price list that can be accessed from the N.C.A. and Public Library button here https://v-cc.org.uk/about/library/
Interesting to see that Bertin were distributed by Ron Kitching. We also have a digital scan of a 1950s Bertin catalogue that is accessible to V-CC members.
