  • Anything to look out for on buying a Witcomb from the 70s/80s ?

  • Is it a witcomb or has it been labelled up as a witcomb.

  • Nervex Lugs, Curved Brake Bridge, Lilac & Black.

  • It was something I was interested in rather than having bought one already....so...as you say...I wanted to be sure that when I find what I want it's a proper Witcomb !

    Lilac...and black....together!

  • Yep,

    Like this:

    Or this:

  • ....ohhhh, now I see...I'll take number 1 or 2 please.

  • ...aren't they hard to get hold of !

  • Not really. There's one on the 'bay at the moment. Been on for about 6 weeks with no takers.

  • Yeah I saw that one...not sure the tubing is anything special, I was looking for something a little lighter. Nice Roughstuff btw.

  • You may have seen it, but there's a whole thread here https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/128507/ with loads of info and discussion about both the bikes and the shop.

  • Thanks...my first proper bike was a Witcomb...just trying to recapture a bit of my youth !

  • Jumping in a bit, but is this kosher and if so, what's the date?
