FOR SALE: Brown Bros vintage lightweight cycling catalogues on CD

| Hello everybody,
I'm just doing a batch of these CDs for people on the CR list and thought I'd let you all know so that you can get your orders in now :-)
Brown Brothers was a massive wholesale cycling concern in the UK during the last century and these CDs contain their 1939 and 1952 catalogues.
There's more than 700 pages between the two catalogues all packed with great information about all the old lightweight component manufacturers. Simplex, Harden, GB, Bluemels, Brooks, Resilion, Airlite, Chater Lea, Williams-they're all there and lots more to boot.
There's far too much to go into here so the best thing to do is visit my Scottish framebuilders website: http://www.framebuilders.toucansurf.com/Brown-Bros.htm (Have a look at the rest of the website, too!)
The CDs are £10 each plus postage and are worth every penny. Please feel free to ask questions.
Regards,
Bruce

| I have a 60ish Western Flyer Tandem that has been hanging in my garage for 7 years, before that it hung in my sister's garage for 8 years. It has come rust dots - everything is original. It is gold color. Before it rots off the wall - perhaps I should sell it. What is a good price?

| Hi all I wonder if maybe someone can help me to find out what year my bike is
I'm looking for information regarding a columbia bike
on the frame it says PRO AM 12 it's like a racing bike
it also has 2 serials or i think so because i found numbers on the left and on the right side of the frame
On the right side it says: 1 039 0746
on the other side it says: 17720
the bike is in good conditions i dont think its really old...but still would be nice to know the year...i tried to look up into your serial number chart under comlumbia but i cant find any match maybe it's too recent?
please let me know if you have more info
thank you
Andrew
