Bob -

This is the first I've heard that Stan Pike may have built frames for Pat Hanlon. Not that I'm terribly surprised, since I know that Pike built for others, as did many builders in that region. Do you recall where you got that bit of information, because I'm always adding to my Pike data base and will include that nugget.

Thanks -

Wayne

>>> I'm afraid I mistated, and I meant to say it was Les Ephgrave that may have made the Pat Hanlon that I have. The notion that Les Ephgrave built some of Pat Hanlon's frames came from The Classiclightweights.co.uk http://classiclightweights.co.uk/ site, and was mentioned by Mick Butler. Also attributed to her marque at various times were Tom Board and Stan Pike. I have a Hurlow-built Condor too and an Ephgrave and I sometimes forget who built what. I have a Tom Board-built Paris TdF from the 80s also, obtained from Mick Butler. It was a tight little community over there in those days wasn't it! I don't remember who sold me the Pat Hanlon now but I think Ephgrave was mentioned in the context of that sale also. They are all wonderful bikes.
