I have two VERY RARE vintage bicycles for sale.

A 1935 Raleigh Golden Arrow Super Sports in amazing condition! Im the second owner from new and it's been dry stored most of it's life!

And I also have a 1956 Gents Rudge Ulster Sports. It is very hard to find the gents version of this bike! But it's quite easy to find the womens versions to salvage parts from

Two very nice and very rare bicycles that belong in a vintage bicycle collection!

Just seen this lovely Brooks leather tool roll. Didn't think you could get them in the UK anymore! Decided to pick one up for my fathers birthday. What do you think?

been after an Ellis Briggs for ages then find this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121555136175?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK:MEBIDX:IT , checking frame number with seller and it appears to be a 6 digit one where as genuine Ellis Briggs have a 4 digit code according to them !!

shame as got seller to almost agree a less than 3 digit price , wasnt sure re frame damage on top tube , either way looks nice

It may just be me but that top tube does not look straight

Doesnt look classy enough to be an Ellis Briggs, they turned out frames as nice as Woodrup, Jackson, Quinn. However, they did have a habit if sticking their decals on frames they sprayed .....

This is the area of the down tube without the red tape over it , I wonder if it might have had an impact

thats my under lying thought as well @midlife and what made me contact Ellis Briggs

 

[DCLane]

The bit with the tape shows a lump of paint out. It's about at the same point as the top tube lump of paint out.

I'd go with an impact.

Should I or shouldn't I. Not so many extra large frames about these days!

Looks though may be worth a punt and may well advance my skills beyond friction shifters.

If downtube index componentry is not to difficult to come by?
