Big oops! I know much too little about pre-1960 bikes, so I forget entirely the little I do know.

There wasn't a sub-30-pound 3-speed made after 1960, was there?

I saw @photogravity's Norman here on BF and wasn't impressed, but then I had the privilege of seeing it in the flesh, or rather, in the iron, I guess. It is a fine bicycle, and pictures didn't do it justice.
