Royal Master 3 speed ?
Anyone heard of a Royal Master 3 speed bike? Just picked up one and it was brushed painted red. Poor bike. I decide to strip it and clean it up.
I noticed there's actually a headbadge and I managed to scrape away some paint. It says:
Royal
Master
Nottingham England.

I found a 1949 Royal in a garage I was cleaning out. A Raleigh clone. Nice bike. Easy to find pats for. prettier decals than the average Raleigh.

the town over from me's swap shop had a women's Royal w/ an 11 63 S-A hub. I was wondering about the marque since. Another guy came over saying he was looking for a 3 speed for his wife. We put it thru its paces & everything worked. I showed him how to find the date on the hub & he took it home.
