be sure you know what youre ordering
their is 451 and 500, both are listed as 20 inch on many sites but are not the same size ,its worth reading the sticky about tyre sizes on the twenty site

the grips look similar to what i used , that saddle , well lets just say its down to personal choice, not what i would use but if its what you want, after al,l its your bike.unless your doing a sympathetic restoration , go with what ever floats your boat,

 

[roadrash]

just picked it up , date on rear hub says 12-79, and its complete with rear child seat from the 70s (but not for long) brookes saddle is in good condition complete with little spanner bag , tyres are also in suprisingly good condition, its gone straight in the shed for now, i have an appointment with a spinal surgeon later , so it will have to wait for a clean up.

 

[GarryG]

Not seen one of those child seats in a while.
