Purchased this eighteen months ago for the princely sum of £13.50 and in my home town of ebay. Looked in a sorry state but everything was greased well and no problems coming apart. I have slowly worked on it and recommissioned it with a few modern twists. Purchased a bike of a mate a work that was an old Falcon with lots of newish parts, this donated wheels, probike bars and tektro levers. Originally it was five speed, now twelve speed, used Suntour vx as per my Carlton Criterium.....love them gears! Spent a lot of time but gradually built it up on a minimal budget. Really pleased with the result. Hope you like it?
