For the life of me I can't place that Falcon as a catalogue model, interesting though

Yeah, the Falcon is a funny one. Eyelets for Mudguards on the dropouts but neither the fork or rear brake bridge are drilled, so I'm not sure how you'd go about fitting them successfully. ...Maybe the canti braze-ons were added at a later date with the holes being filled at the same time?

It's configured as a mud plugging CX bike from my era. It has the typical Raleigh / Carlton / Falcon seat wrapover but nothing else LOL

Yes the Falcon looks interesting. If it wasn’t so small and so far north, I would be tempted to make a bid. Can’t have to many Falcons! Only have two at the moment lol.

 

[nonowt]

that could be the answer (or part of it). This vintage Merckx also has the mudguard eyelet/canti/undrilled combination.

The CX Merckx is in a class above the Falcon....... probably similar to what De Vlaeminck rode BITD

A Raleigh with full chaincase located in Witney, Oxfordshire. The starting bid is a very reasonable £30.

Judging by all the mirrors and lights it seems to be some sort of tribute to Quadrophenia

it would cost more to turn them all on if they were battery powered

 

[biggs682]

Rather nice one here
