Hello, We have made some progress with the restoration of the Penny Farthing. We now know the bearings are Brown Aelous patent No. 3531 built 1877.

Possible new guess is that it looks like a Humber make, but any corrections are welcome.

We have not found any other markings and struggling on the type of brake to rebuild? Any help will be appreciated on the brake, rod and spoon type or a flat push down brake?

I've attached some of the latest photos.
The excellent restoration work has been carried out by Christian, from Richards of England.

Any help on colour scheme would also be appreciated. The current colours are primers / under coats.
