Falcon Londoner

Hi Folks,
New the the boards. I picked up a Falcon Londoner off a guy on craigslist that I'm wondering if you folks can give me some more information on. I've done some research but haven't been able to come up with much. The handle bars are Sakae custom risers.

Bolt on wheels, claw derailleur hanger, stem shifter, clamp-on seat post - all markers of a low end bike. Looks to be a tiny bit better than an entry level bike. Good things are it looks to be in fair condition, aluminum swaged crank and you've got aluminum rims. Has had parts replaced in its life for sure. It isn't going to be seen in the Tour de France but if it fits you and you like riding it then it is a decent bike. I don't know much about the brand.

Hello wrangen22 and welcome to the forum!


frame constructed with the Agrati "AM" lugset, nr. 000.8040, which Falcon used on a number of different models. fork is an off-the-shelf one from Japan with lamp boss added. odd to see it on a British cycle.

without another Londoner model with which to compare it is only a guess as to how much of the machine's fittings are original to it.

should you have any specific queries regarding the bicycle forum members may be able to assist...
