Some help to value a vintage falcon
I've noticed a few people posting some threads about vintage Falcons and thought this would be a good place to seek some help.
I was recently hit by a car whilst riding my vintage Ernie Clements Falcon Road bike - I broke my back in the crash. I'm at home now and starting to fill out legal paperwork and one of the things I need is an estimate of what the bike was worth.
I bought the bike for £20 (yes I'm in England) a few years back from an old guys garage sale. I replaced a few worn components and immediately fell in love with how it rode and looked. Now I'm no vintage bike expert but I've done a little research online and it seems to me that maybe I had a vintage / classic bike on my hands without really knowing it. Obviously it's worthless now (see pics!) but I'd really love to get an idea of what these things go for?
Does anyone have any idea of what the bike could have been worth before the crash or maybe point me towards examples of similar ones sold or for sale that could give me an idea of the value of the bike.
Any help appreciated. Thanks
