My latest addition...

Here is my latest addition....

A 1960's Forever Light Roadster, I have dated it to the 60's from the headbadge and found that it was built in China.

I can only find one for sale and that is on ebay Italy.

Are these fairly rare in the UK?

.... and found that it was built in China.

Nostalgia! I used to ride a Flying Pigeon round Upper Egypt .... slowly.

Only work just over a mile down the road now, so this one comes out on dry days.

It looks like an imitation Raleigh. Everything on it looks exactly the same as a Raleigh, especially the front forks and the mudguards.

Think they based them on the superbe.

Looks like they have straight up copied a Raleigh Superb exactly, then just put their own badge on it. Which is not uncommon at all for the Chines to do lol.

Tightened the drive side cotter pin today and replaced the loose pedals. Should ride a lot nicer tomorrow.

Lights fitted...

That dynamo's wonky and will wear tyre and roller faster than necessary. If possible, fix it perpendicular to the tyre, so that the dynamo's axle axis would cross the wheel axle's axis.

Thanks, I adjusted it shortly after fitting.

All at the right angle now.
