| Interesting machine.... can't quite make out what precisely it is.... perhaps a Supercourse with upside down northroad bars? It's commanding a pretty fair price nonetheless... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=420&item=7137627096&rd=1 NMA, etc. Later! Larry "Boneman" Bone by: 69.39.168.25 |
| Appears to be a 1970 Raleigh International - Reynolds 531 frame, full Campy with Weinmann brakes. It appears to be in superb shape, and is in one of the preferred frame size, 22 1/2". The North Rounder bars are definitely a later addon by the owner. I'd say the price reflects the bike quite well, although the ad is not too specific, and the photos are a tad wanting in details. -Kurt by: 64.12.116.198 |
| I would concur Kurt. It is in fine condition... I wonder if the "80 year old" owner used to ride Club bikes and put those bars on it... Regards! Larry "Boneman" Bone by: 65.204.27.12 |

| Part of the coronation craze of '53. Must have been intended to be stuck onto just about anything: window, bike, car, lunch box,... by: 66.30.200.82 |

| I have seen this decal on a Coronation Mug. Applied as normal then varnished over. Matthew - PS Rudges for the Royals not New Hudsons? by: 62.253.64.14 |
| I'm confused, what was the "coronation craze of '53"???? by: 12.75.173.99 |
| One had a coronation in 1953 when one was crowned. HM the Q by: 62.252.96.9 |
| I have a large collection of coronation ephemera dating back to the 1887 Jubilee. The '53 coronation marked the high point of the craze for these items. Mugs were the most popular items; often distributed by schools to the pupils. These items trade on eBay for a few pounds and even show up in antique (junk) shops here in the USA. They make a very nice display if you have an assortment of them. Some are really beautiful, such as my Royal Doulton mug of the 1887 Jubilee; most of the 53 stuff was pretty naff though! Charles investiture as POW produced some as did his wedding to Di--that is where my collection ends. I am sure Charles' upcoming wedding to Camilla Park-the Rolls will see more of this kind of ephemera produced for the souvenir market! by: 168.212.169.147 |
| I found a dutch company that is willing to ship parts and accessories to the states, after a year of searching, http://workcycles.com/selection.html they are also willing to ship bicycles. They are not a regular bike shop so processing a large number of small parts orders is a pain for them, so I thought I would see if anyone wants to order any dutch bits, 28" rims, tyres, fenders, wheel locks etc? I'm going to order a box of drum brake cable barrel ends, a skirt guard and a "fietstassen" one of those heavy duty vinyl pannier bags, the sort the dutch post office use. They don't have spare parts listed but can apparently get just about anything seen on a dutch bike and have most things. by: 70.56.195.196 |
| Good find James.... and I just hadda wait to see what a "Conference Bike" was..... ??? Hysterical! Actually, they have some awesome bikes on that page. Regards, Larry "Boneman" Bone by: 69.39.170.84 |
| These bikes are wonderful. My wife was not impressed with the idea of giving up her Mitsubishi Shogun for an 8 seater trike! Matthew - anyone for a conference? by: 62.253.64.14 |
| http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=56197&item=7136388348&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW No offense to the winning bidder, but the final bid of $19.26 is ridiculous! It's a common 1970's Raleigh chainguard, with the two brackets on the back side rendering it compatible with virtually nothing pre-mid '60s. Not much can be said of it's condition other then it is free of the common crease in the center from the crank mashing into the poorly-aligned guard. To top it off, it has the pitiful script lettering of post-1972. You can buy the whole bike that the guard came off of at thrift shops for less then this fellow paid for the guard! -Kurt by: 205.188.116.202 |
