I purchased a Triumph bike and have been unable to find the year it was made. It has the Sturmey-Archer logo on the back wheel but in pictures the year is below the ASC I did find a stamped 72 to the right but I believe this bike to be somewhere closer to the 50's. The frame stem off the seat has 1039076. Can someone help me date this bike?
ASC? Wow, that is a very rare 3 speed fixed gear hub. Valuable too. ASC hubs were made in the early 50s and used on higher end club type bikes.
