Thanks, but if anyone around here who's interested in such bicycles hasn't been using Classic Lightweights as a reference and inspiration for years already, they aren't trying very hard! 😇
At this point I'm actually collecting original weekly publications such as "Cycling" and "The Bicycle" as well as maintenance manuals and tour guides from 1950s Britain to get my information, because I drained the internet well long ago... I'll have my own blog up soon enough to start sharing unique information I'm gleaning from my research.
Cheers!
