Latest R.E.W Reynolds find

[biggs682]

I got contacted over the weekend on faceache if I knew anyone that might be interested in a bike that had just been unearthed in a shed .

So once I saw a picture I said yes please and have just collected it .

It's an R.E.W Reynolds that looks to have been made by Woodrup but just waiting for confirmation on that .


Looks like original condition with a nice seat cluster full 531 tubing , sloping fork crown .

10 speed gearing 27" wheels and large flange hubs what's not to like ?

New tyres , a couple of cable clips , and a clean should see it .

Very nice!
Some chrome top tube cable clips would look great.
Edit - just seen them on your to do list!

I get mine from Dave Marsh at Universal cycles about a £10 for three including postage

That looks lovely and should clean up a treat.

Certainly should

Ooh, that is very nice. Just a touch on the small side for me, but you're edging closer and closer...

An hour in the garage doing a safety check and swapping out the saddle for an SMP , and of we went only a mile and half just to get some idea re it's mechanical condition.
