Roberts-No size in the listing but I would guesstimate it to be a 58.

That's my kind of seat post :)

Very nice Hetchins which needs to be rescued and put back to a geared bike.
It's a lot of money though.

It’s not that nice as far as Hetchins go. I mean, it’s ok.

Weren’t bikes of that era run fixed over winter with gears added in summer?

To each their own.

No idea.

Yes, I prefer my own. (Old photo, better build now)

Beautiful frame but surely not cheap

I’m not 100% sure that’s a Superlight, based on the description in the brochure (see photo on listing).

A lovely piece of Scottish frame building.

Columbus Air Technicycle TT(?) frameset

Not sure what to make of this one, I have a feeling the paint might not be original but pretty interesting

This is simply great.

Was going to whine about it missing seatpost, but it takes regular round sp.

Dayum.

Klein-esque

Very nice Hetchins which needs to be rescued and put back to a geared bike.

No hanger so prob would have come single speed or with sturmey originally, surely?

It has a braze on for a shifter
