Hi,

This really is an interesting old beast, belongs to Dave Thornber of the Yorks Classic club and, although I'm not sure, I feel it started life as a pre-war Stroud with girder forks on to which Dave grafted the teleforks - which look right in themselves.

Anyway, I've thoroughly enjoyed watching Dave in action on the beast - and he always seems to be thoroughly enjoying himself.

Cheers.

I don't think its pre war as the frame looks wrong. I think its the same frame and forks as the 47 bike you have in the previous photo. But fitted with a Sloper Red Panther engine as people seem to like the earlier engines more.
