Nice! Is the "buy 3 get 1 FREE" offer still open?

Here are some pics of a 1949 Hobbs Raceweight I have had for a couple years and just got around to putting together. Has Chater Lea cranks, Racelite hubs, Weinmann rims, Hobbs Lytalloy headset, Wrights seat, Universal brakes, GB bar and stem with Weinmann levers. Japanese pedals. Bar, stem, and pedals will likely change for something nicer and/or older. Just wanted to get it on the road. A very smooth rider and not bad looking either.

Look at my other bikes too if you are a first timer.
