That’s the one - longish story but fresh out of uni I was hired by Pashley to do various things, including scoping out whether GB could be spun out as a viable aftermarket parts brand again. We had tube bending machines and everything but the quality was consistently sub-Nitto so the idea was ultimately nixed.
They still use the branding on OEM parts for their more expensive bikes but it’s just that - a logo and nothing much more.

Those Miche cranks I posted turned up today and they’re actually proper nice - axle had a crap plastic cap on the end so once you knock that out they look kinda smart for the money
