Are kittens better than a 'Twenty'? - discuss

Don't know what happened there!

They're back now. Maybe the image hosting account hit some limit.

No, I edited the post and reloaded them.
It must be a conspiracy!

Sorry, it went a while ago.

Tidy. I saw a Porsche exactly the same colour today but the bike looks far less wanky. Right, what animals live behind the fence?

When I saw the colour, it reminded me of Regan's Ford Consul out of the Sweeney. Given it is a similar era, are kipper ties mandatory wear?

I picked this BSA Twenty up last summer and have only just got around to giving it a check over & clean.
I had to replace a tube and I relocated the front light to the brake mount as before it was in the basket.

Hi Mark, hi from Australia, I have a similar BSA 20 as you. Mine is dated 6/78 and is a little darker in colour. I didnt think the rear tray was original but looking at your photo it obviously is. Beautiful bike to ride. See photo.

Ooh, it matches my Twenty but without the basket:

There’s a couple of BSA twenty’s on the bay at the moment. @Crazygal there's a Raleigh/Triumph/BSA/Hercules Twenty FB if you’re interested, and a separate Dawes Kingpin page too, another British brand twenty inch wheel bike.

Are you trying to sell that?

The original plan for the Twenty was to ride PBP next year with it. Given that it looks I can't ride the event due to my son's national commitments I was planning to sell the Twenty in the Spring.

However, if someone's interested now I'd be looking for £40.
