Ken made my first bike, I think his brother Alex made the frames it was a super lightweight road racing bike with the correct gears for road racing every Tuesday night at Crystal Palace cost me Mum 180:00 pounds and was all I needed to win Championships with on Tuesday at Crystal Palace and Sunday’s at Eastway, lea valley park. Two great road racing tracks that were once car racing tracks
I had plenty of help from Ken to keep my bike running smooth but it was super reliable although not campagnolia throughout like the best it had very efficient kit so for a true classic bike you need campagnolia hubs gears brakes but shimano will be just as reliable
Think my x boss may know where my bike is I left it hanging in his warehouse he bought me a brand new motorcycle for it sure was good
I remember meeting Kens son in the 80s nice one fella
