Hi there, have acquired a 19" rear wheel which appears to be from a lightweight British bike. Brake plate is marked TF Blumfield. I know they did some front hubs/brakes for Velocette Venoms but this is not off a small Velo.. Can't get any more info on 'net. Any ideas if it's something rare before I start hacking about and swapping to alloy rim etc.Pics here
Thanks in advance,much appreciated.

Mystery solved -thanks to some info from the chap at Villiers Services -it's off a Norman, they used Blumfield hubs on a few of their machines e.g TS,and the B1S Norman B1S
