I have a J.A.Holland frame, that I got from a fellow list member (THANKS JOHN) I pretty much know all about the builder. It seems I did ride and race againt him OR his son in the 50s He was a member of the Solihull CC and myself a member of the Midland C&AC both in Brum, ENGLAND, It is a well built frame 531 Nervex lugs.etc, a road frame from the mid fifties. I know that Ian Briggs?Chris Crocoll?members also have Holland frames. I have written Norris hoping with all his contacts he can help me locate transfers (BLOODY DECALS) for it, Not sure that Norris gets his Emails (Maybe he?Spamed me) Does any one else, maybe a Brit member have any suggestions, I can Supply copy's of the ones one the frame if needed. The frame, built up with Campag 10speed GBs Stronglight 49d etc 60s Alloy rims and Campag hubs with Vittoria Corsa tyres(OF COURSE NOT CORRECT) I do have the 27s Dunlop spec lightweight rims Airlites etc. weighs in around 21 lbs with the Alloy rims., NOT bad for the year, rides VERY well even up?Vail pass last weekend. wish I rode as well as the bike!? Thanks in advance Cheers John Crump Old&tiredBrit. Parker,Co USA?? PS Rode my KOF Mercian on my 76th D/B Sunday 7 June, 76 miles
