1930s new hudson. £30

 

[Drago]

Wow! What are your plans for the old girl?

 

[beepbeep]

£30????????????????? BARGAIN !

 

[robsa]

Just done a few mile on it. Rides lovely. Bit on the small side but i havent set it up yet.
GB front brake, strata rear brake. Cloth covered cables.Lyotard pedals,BSA 3speed hub and frame mounted changer and a dunlop saddle.
Anyone ever cleaned a dunlop rubber saddle?

 

[robsa]

Just going to service it give it a polish and leave it as is.

That headlamp looms like it came from a WW2 searchlight battery.

 

[BADGER.BRAD]

Lovely ! keeping all it's battle scars will keep it that way. As a point of interest are the tyres still a size used today or are they a little odd ?

 

[midlife]

Bargain for £30 A bit before my time but if it was 1930's shouldn't it have a head clip type head set ?

 

[robsa]

Im thinking 1940s myself. I was just going off what the feller i bought it off said.

 

[robsa]

If you look closely,you can see on the bars where they were fitted with rod brakes. No evidence on the frame for rod brakes so i think im going to get rid of them. ( my knees hit them while im riding so no loss)
