The front lamp on that Rudge reminds me of War of the Worlds, for some reason 🤔...

And now I have Forever Autumn stuck in my head.

A Mo-Bike in Berkshire RG40 1DB, on the 11th of this month.

Shaft drive.

"(Never raced or rallied)."

Would be mighty impressive if it had !


Still, nice to see one that hasn't been dragged out of the Bridgewater Canal .

£200 for a Claud Butler with no tyres or tubes in Frinton on Sea, Essex.

Edit: Perhaps it is worth the asking price because it’s one of those rare “Claude” Butler cycles.🤣

Hmmm...

I do like the geometry of the frame; very much - especially the shallow fork-rake. Very interesting...

Pic (only one?!) is less than ideal to show 'What's What' but hubs, front and rear mech's certainly appear to be 'period' Record; possibly also their 'Pista' pedals(?); Grand Sport h/set? Nice rims. Fluted seat-post might be Record but hard (for me!) to know from that snap.

I do appreciate that, nowadays, old steel-frame 'racers' are way out of fashion but I'd have that bike at the drop of a hat if it is what I think it is...

Philip.

The clamps don’t look right for Campag. (One piece top clamp) Certainly looks like one of the better 1970s bikes.
