Hi , bit late I know but only just joined.
Love old pushies.
Just acquired a 1950 dated rudge rid brake job. (no idea what model,its got 26x1 3/8 wheels and a hockey stick chainguard) and loving all the tips and hints on here.
Can't decide whether to restore it or just refurb the gubbins and ride it in its manky rusty black valspared loveliness
