• Ok.. So its not in perfect condition, has had a fair bit of use over its time.

    1952 Holdsworth. Frame Number 009782 from what i can make out.

    531 Plain Gauge Tube
    Seat tube 55cm ctt
    Top tube 57cm ctc

    A few paint dinks on the top tube, been touched up. no signs of rust.
    Hidden cable routing.

    Built up for use as a winter type fixed. Two Mafac brakes. Including drop levers with the hard to come by semi hoods.

    Full Mudguards

    700x 28C Michelin Tracers F and R
    Double Fixed S/F Airlite Hub with 18t Sprocket 40 Hole built onto 36 hole Rim
    32 Hole front hub. No Name

    Cinelli Bars 39cm and Stem 95mm

    Stronglight Chainset 49d 48tooth

    Mansfield Saddle with added rivets and ties.

    Grease Nipples on hubs, pedals and b/b

    I am sure the photos will tell you the rest.

    Selling it on behalf of Geoff Boxhall, Veteran Cycling Club and East Sussex CTC Kingpin. He is trying to clear out his workshop, lots of bits and pieces to be found.

    The bike can be viewed in Lewes, East Sussex. Otherwise i can bring it up to Ripley on Saturday or Dalston E8 afterwards.

    £300
    Obviously had some wear and use, but is mechanically sound and in pretty good condition for its age. Especially with some hard to come by items, saddle and brake set as an example

    I like it...

  • It is a bargain...

  • Can't pm since I am new here but I was just wondering if you would consider shipping abroad. She's a beauty!

  • a bargain indeed, it's also perfect for the Tweed Run once you get those Velo Orange mudguard.

  • Cheers guys
    Ideally i would like to keep it within London an the south east. If all else fails, i am sure i could arrange shipping

  • great for tweed run, i'd say 350 is the top end of what it's worth but am sure they'll be someone willing to pay more than that on ebay, tis a nice looking ride

  • if tweed run was the case. i can pop it into town on thursday

  • what do people think this is seriously worth, would £300 be a fair price? Or lower?

  • bump

  • have done a quick check on go compare and the best price is 274 at argos
    mind you thats with a transfer on the headtube not a pressed badge plate.
    jesus

  • ok im going to set the price at £300.

  • fair price frame is worth at least 150 - 200 on ebay (sold well) alone

  • if you decide to split i'd be interested in the frame... saying that it would be a shame to split it, must be someone out there who'll grab it

  • i'd say that £300 is a good price, frame 100-150, even headbadges have reached nearly £40 alone....so for an extra 100 you get a complete bike.....
    have 2 holdsworth's - she says NO MORE!

  • last chance if anyone wants this before the tweed run. happy to bring it up to london bridge/victoria tonight.

  • had no luck at Ripley. So its still available

  • definitely no splitting

  • i am in n16 and my dad is very interested. is it still available?
