I've just joined the Tandem club with a '74 Jack Taylor Super Tourist tandem about a month ago. Fillet brazed 531 frame, 650B wheels, Jack Taylor custom racks, seatpost/stem. T.A. Pro Vis Cranks, Suntour/Campag gears. So far we've taken it down to Sussex and around London after giving it a mini-overhaul. It's our first tandem and what shocked us was how well it rode for such an old bike (compared to a crappy modern tandem we hired once), the low trail steering really makes it steer quite briskly for a tandem.
