1950 Holdsworth cyclone renovation (completed pics 11/3)

mortigi_tempo Hi dogsballs,

great to see this bike back in good condition - I'm currently renovating a 1956 Holdsworth Cyclone (the road version without the track ends though) - it's actually up at Mercian getting resprayed right now - I went for gunmetal and canary yellow (original colours) with gold lining. Hope it looks as good as yours...

Did you use the original bottom bracket and headset? I need to get new ones for mine - wondering what you used?

did you know you could order almost any colour way back when ;) . it's a williams chainring and a bayliss-wiley BB, not NOS but hardly used. I'm waiting for a NOS brampton headset (the one in there at the moment is a cheap re-pro). will look better when i build up the vintage wheelset for it ;) . if you are having trouble finding bits, i've found a couple awesome contacts, just whisper me. :) oh yeah, i just bought the frame and forks, then found everything else.
