Latest list of parts for sale to CR members before they go to Ebay. A few items have already been to Ebay - they are now offered to CR members at a considerable saving. I have photos of many of the items - or can take one if necessary. All items are priced in $. Shipping will be extra charged at cost. Payment can be made in cash with dollars or by money order in Pounds sterling ($1.45 to 1 GBP). American Express Travellers cheques in $ are also fine. I can take PayPal but I have to charge 5% extra to cover what my bank charges me. Regards Hilary Stone, Bristol, England
HETCHINS ITALIA STRAIGHT STAY 23 1/2in/24in frame This frame is described in the Hetchins records as a 24in but I would normally call it a 23 1/2in - only a small part of the seat lug makes it a 24in. Top tube is 22 1/2in. This is one of the genuine Hetchins built Italias; it has the single point Prugnat lugs, Agrati ends, and the standard Hetchins twin plate fork crown. Craftsmanship is every bit as good as any other Hetchins with nice detailing - unusually the rear brake bridge is curved and has little extra stiffeners and is reinforced. Seat stay eyes are a very neat semi-wraparound. Paintwork is in a flam brown with Hetchins transfers - it is a bit so-so but would be fine for use on an everyday bike. It was delivered on the 23rd April 1965 - frame number is H5043. If wanted I could get this frame reenamelled in England. $140
