1977 Halfords Nimbus Deluxe - Taxi RestoMod

[Survivor Bikes]

Happy weekend everyone. Another one done this week. Custom theme graphics, powder coated frame & forks. Built the 451 wheels using rims from SJS and hand rolled spokes. Next week’s project is likely to be mid 70s Raleigh Eighteen.

Wow! That’s ACE.

Aw thanks folks. I really enjoy putting that quality British steel back on the road. I only source and restomod the most deteriorated and ubiquitous bikes. My various mk1 R20s, RSWs and Graziellas etc, will receive a more sympathetic and faithful restoration... whenever I get the chance to work on them that is.

If you’re on FB the Raleigh Twenty and / or The Dawes Kingpin FB groups would like to see your bikes, if you haven’t already. I expect you’ve seen the link to my blog for my Dawes Kingpin in my sig below.

Cheers mate. I shall check out those groups forthwith. I’m glad there’s people out there who still ‘get’ these little bikes.
