1956 Jack Taylor Road International Model
 

My Dads 1956 Jack Taylor, he thought it was worthless so gave it to me to get rid of.
I would like to be able to tell him otherwise!
Not for sale, keeping it in the family.
It has been re-sprayed by Mercian Cycles as frame had been re-painted several times previously.
Components not original to the bike as my Dad bought the frame only.
Components are all of the same era though, late 1950's.

That is beautiful!

I haven't a clue to value but, what a gorgeous bike!

an exact value may be hard to pindown because of the repaints but to most of here it is certainly not worthless. it certainly is beautiful bike. I think you ned to get a pic of you and your dad with it and a letter written letter (by him) explaining the history of the bike. it may not increase the value but to some it adds to the history. and your granddaughter or son may enjoy it when they ride it.

OH is the shifter bent or is the '50 style?

Good thing it's not my size or I'd be pestering you to sell it. :-)
