on a forum ride to clacton we cycled past a house with an old bike lent up against the fence outside, with a for sale sign on it. thought it looked interesting so as we were near enough in clacton i stopped to have a quick look, it was an old freddy grubb track frame with a 3 speed fixed sturmey archer rear hub and some 151bcd campy record track cranks. full build all for the grand price of £100. seemed rude not to snap it up. ghost rode it to clacton pier, got fish and chips and headed back to london. still have the cranks in my spares box. nice to know they are a bit rare ! and have a bit of value. will find a use for them one day.
