Rightfully posted. Beautiful.

The Silca crack pipe is only £7.95

I know it's the angle of the photo, but it bug me that it look like the fork is bent.

They are bent.

So what happened to Allure in the end? Henk simply quit framebuilding?

I don't know.
But I found this story on the www some time ago:

Hey Ed where did you find that steamroller?

All very nice. But how do you pull those brakes?

Are you required to climb into the main triangle for decents?

is there such a thing as vintage bike porn?

indeed there is, i like that ^ with natural amber side walls, beefy tyres and layback handlebars. It's the inspiration for modern day beach cruisers.

Is it just me, or is that a drawing of a bike? ^

I think it's a photo, but taken with a really shitty 1950s camera phone.
