As many are using Facebook to share cycle based stories, history and pics today, do join and post your Dayton bicycles/frames with frame number on my Dayton Cycle Co Ltd of London group. Thanks R

Thank you all for responding to my plee.
Kilgariff site shows an extensive amount of info on CB and Holdworth, and having been directed there, I can see a frame that is a most likely contender, Mistral 531 DB 'Extra ' having the new in 1966, Campagnolo vertical drop outs, (VDOs.)Pencil stays and options for chrome plating. About that time, there were difficulties in obtaining Chromium. I shall be trialling brush plating with Nickel but I hope not to file, Emery paper, polish right through the steel! I picked up some full chrome Tange front forks, as the frame very likely had these but in 531. I would appreciate any guidance for tranfers as there are NONE at the moment. Rob

Many thanks for the info. What do the digits signify? Yes, pity about the previous crash and ripple. It can be lessened but not for me to attempt. I shall investigate transfers from 1967 . Possible model or was this custom job with those VDOs?

These C vertical dropouts are new to me. The extra inner ring is on both sides. Either end of the white panels have world rings, and can see many Holdsworths have this. I'm hoping someone will confidently be able to identify. The head lugs??

New one. No marking except fits on the BB shell. It look s British, arched brake bridge.
