Higgins is best known for trikes and tandems in the UK but he he also produced some fine solo bicycles. This week I have a frame from his south London shop that carries some extremely nice and fine fancy lugs and was his top solo bicycle frame, the Plus Parfait. Another interesting frame but sadly without forks is a F W Evans built specifically for use with a Sturmey Archer hub gear.
There are quite a few Campag spares and tools listed this week - I have two different lots - one of tools and one of Campy spares - if there's anything you are looking for and I have not listed please enquire to see if I might have it. Other excellent items include a NOS Mavic Starfish chainset, NOS Campag Mexico 68 rims, NOS Mavic MA2 rims, NOS SF Record hubs, 32H Record large flange hubs, a pair of touring with 40H Campag Record front and back, NOS Mavic pedals, Airlite large flange front hub and some TA rings, a TA crank extractor and crank spanner. And forgetting a Ciocc fork... and a Chater Lea tandem bottom bracket axle
The auctions finish on Sunday as usual and all are best found using my ebay identity aviauto1925 or go to:
