Hitchcocks tried to tell me the works bike had specially made gearboxes, I know this to be untrue as the fitted the same type box in some road bikes albeit with different gearing.
Hitchcocks are great with Indian built stuff but have pretty sketchy knowledge/ records of British stuff, however they do regularly have older parts in stock but it’s difficult to make them understand what exactly I need without registration numbers, frame numbers and part numbers.
pretty damn frustrating ?
