Just got this bike this weekend

I have spoken to Ellis Briggs but they are sure they never made it

Ant ideas? I can take more photos if needed

The number on the bb shell looks like PF 106

There is also a nervex stamp on the bb shell so it has Nervex lugs

Normandy hubs, Weinmann rims Campag cranks and chain ring and drop outs

Any help would be great

it's nice, no idea who built it if the decals aren't the original. would look good with 27" wheels.

get that stripped back, and painted up nice, with a paint job that shows of those lugs.

I was keen to keep it original but now I know it was re-painted in the 70s I might just strip it and re paint it

It would be nice to find out what the original colours would have been though

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
