Bill Hurlow search

Posted on
  • hello there,

    i am doing a search for my dad. he had quite a few hurlow frames in his day, some custom built by hurlow for him. he sold his favourite one in the 90s, and has always been absolutely gutted about it - he has been searching for it for years to see what happened to it and if he can persuade the owner to possibly buy it back.

    Does anyone here own a hurlow? even if you are not intersted in selling it, it would be great just for the old bugger to see what happened to it. i dont know much else about it, i think he said it was cream - i shall get some other details if necessary.

    thanks for your time, have a nice bank holiday :)

  • Hurlow Nicholas, never heard of the builder, sorry.
    someone will have though, good luck.

  • thankyou ..i did a search of this forum before posting this, he has been mentioned so he is known, but i couldnt see any actual bikes ..

    i think he used to build for holdsworth, but he also built under his own name, and not too many my dad reckons, so there is a chance of finding my dads old bike if we search hard enough...

  • "and not too many my dad reckons"

    There is that fact yes, numbers of frames quoted on some of the pictures,
    Hilary Stone from here may be able to help? he writes on that lightweights site.
