Hercules ladies roadstter rebuild
Hi all,
Well so far i bought a 1929-1930's Hercules ladies looped frame. I have dismantled it and took lots of photos and measurements of the pin striping.
I have bought the correct transfer from H-loyds for the headstock and a pinstrip brush.
Tomorrow i plan to get the red pinstrip colour matched and then near the end of the week the frame , rear frame section and forks will go to the powdercoaters.
Once it returns, hopefully i will have mastered the pinstriping enought to do the 1mm striping.
Last sunday i bought a 1930's Hercules gent cycle for its parts, as it has bent frame and forks.
The frame has an obvious kink in the tubes from the headstock and the forks are slightly bent back.
The seat on it is a rubber dunlop type, but the rubber is sun bleached and cracked, im thinking it is beyond repair?
If there is any interest i may post some photos of how the restoraion goes
