[CR]Re: Holdsworth ID

It would be helpful if you could post some clear pictures of the various critical parts of the frame. Have you actually looked through the pages on Norman Kilgariff's site? C.J.

Hi Im new to this list and was hoping someone might be able to help me identify my old bike.

First, a little about me. I live in Auckland , New Zealand after leaving the UK with my family in 1985. My dad is an avid Hetchins fan and has several of them, and I just have an old Holdsworth.

I bought the frame second hand and built a bike out of it when I was 14. When I got it , it was a pinky lilac colour.

My dad thought it was a pre-war model but I don't know.

I can only find a serial number on the forks, which is 24580 M after looking at all the other recommended spots for one.

It does not have the long pointy bits on the lug work, and does have a Holdsworth badge on the front.

I tried the website http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nkilgariff/ but he says he is having a break from answering emails.

Any help would really be appreciated.

I hope to identify the model and then try and restore it to is original colours and decals, etc.

Thanks
Michael.
