Only 89 pound wtf..!
I didn't bother with it as I thought it would go for loads..
Not that it's for me. I have a friend after his first vintage bike, on a budget this would have been a good start. -
Great sprints but the frame looks like it's built for those pesky 27.11/4 wheels
-
Frame number 001731, I think it should be D01731, so April 1950. Probably a Club weight.
Judging by the description the frame has had one too many.....
The components look like new, Lytaloy headset, seat post clamp, Hobbs badge, Bayliss BB and that paintwork..!
There have been some ace Hobbs frames come up recently. -
It would be good to see you there @jeff80. There was an assortment of bikes last year ranging from 50s track running tubulars to contemporary all out touring bikes so you should be fine.
I guess it's all weather dependent but you should be fine and Old Terry's Lodge road should be fun as I'm sure it's just a track. -
I'm down for this, really enjoyed it last year.ive been riding a similar route over lockdown, on a geared bike mind.which has included the infamous Exedown, not sure I could do it fixed. it's that hard left hander a quarter of the way up that's the killer.

Sold for 503 pounds. Was a lovely saddle to be fair.

And to think I used this bike including the saddle on last year's Hard day's ride in January. I won't be doing that again -
Afraid not, the B47 had an aluminium cantle, was very narrow for racing and the B47 in question is in extremely good condition.
Your B17 is nice and with the desirable round stamp on the side, it's certainly worth looking after but I very much doubt it would command that sort of price. Although saying that, never say never.
This is what you need. -
Hi @7ven.
No I have my eye on another frame, which isn't a bargain at all, if anything it's over priced with the wrong forks and no paint. My sensible head.is saying no, however I'm struggling to leave it be.
Will keep you updated. -
Very nice. Seems like a bargain
-
Could I pick it up this afternoon
-
Afraid not mate.good luck though
-
Bayliss no 14 available or a mega long unbranded axle. It needs cleaning up though.

Very very nice Flying scot Continental model.
To small for me and its 340 miles away. -
Definitely agree with this, especially after you said it was small.
-
"You have the correct head badge"
Well it's a start.? -
It looks to be pre war judging by the lugs and braze on's.
Any numbers on the BB or rear drop outs -
Hi @Settle
How did you get on with this, what did they say at Varonha? -
That looks like the North downs some where, I'm guessing near Otford?
-
Little project.?
I love that Hobbs good price to with those components. -
Very nice, is that a Gillott stem.?
