Atala made a range of frames and bikes from the average to the very nice..... A bit like Raleigh really lol that's at the lower end despite the chrome. Atala only brought their shoes etc to the UK BITD and quite a few if us used them as they were cheap and had holes drilled in lol.

The Ciocc is a breed apart, they never spread across the market and we're always top notch, arguments abound about who built them but if genuine then that's a bargain. When they landed here in the 70's we called them "chee-ock" frames but they are pronounced "church" I believe :smile:
 
And now for something totally different... Witchford recycling centre again (witchford.revivemarketplace.com), a Wayfarer folder (either Raleigh or Halfords), hub geared, £30. Looks in pretty reasonable nick - spotted by me this arvo while taking in a load of garden waste for disposal.

Edited to say that it's a Halfords one. Had a good gander when taking another load of garden waste today. There's also a ladies' Raleigh Camaro hybrid and a men's Carrera hybrid of similar vintage. Interestingly, both have centre-pull brakes.

Witchford again... A BSA Javelin 5-speed junior roadie - 16 inch frame, 26" wheels. A bit tatty, but would actually scrub up quite nicely as it looks worse than it is. £30.

This almost became my N+1 today, but it's just a fraction too big. :cry: The curse of the horizontal top bar strikes again. :sad:

If any of you gents ever run across a 15 inch frame on similar sized wheels, please give me a heads up xxx

Toulouse Special edition to get @woodbutcher looking at some proper old bikes^_^

https://www.leboncoin.fr/velos/1622417363.htm/

Eddy Merckx built by kessels. 531 main tubes (probably) and forks with the Kessels compass logo on the forks. Not one of the team frames but one of the quality licenced replicas, topped off with Shimano arabesque..a steal

https://www.leboncoin.fr/velos/1622377388.htm/

Raleigh record 531 main tubes and fork, No chrome on the fork and a yellow headtube panel suggest it's an early one, others will know better

The Raleigh is a bit of a bargain but if you won't ride it. Drilled chain rings make it look a bit special. 600 Arabesque group set nice. Getting more and more difficult to find in good condition.
