maybe a royal albert model,
not sure what year its from ,found in a barn/coach house that had a roof collapse , the original bars and stem were bent when the roof came down so have a pair of Stuttgarter bars for it, and the original brooks saddle was rain soaked and snowed on for almost a year and was unusable , real shame as there is large sections of the frame where the enamel is perfect and almost like new and other parts that were exposed to the elements and look 50 years old, new paint at some point , dark flamboyant red me thinks.
the wheels are 26x1-1/4 dunlop lightweight rims on BHco hubs 'which are still very smooth' and cleaned up quite well ,tyres are dunlop sprint 's'
the old crank-set cleaned up well but the chrome is covered in tiny pits , think i will keep it anyway and see about a re-chrome ,
frame number 82687 more soon.
