Classic Lightweights
Classic Lightweights UK website is an awesome resource
guide and great place for vintage British eyecandy. I have linked some items before while blogging to this website, but I feel that it deserves it own post. It is valuable to collectors and restorers much the same way Classic Rendezvous is, but they have taken a more micro approach, focusing on vintage British lightweights and components, compared to the more macro, broader scope of all vintage lightweights that Classic Rendezvous deals with.
These are some of the pictures from the website showing some truly British ideas and designs. Vibrant stays on a Hetchins, Shellwin's cool hub flanges, curve seattube Jack Taylor, Burlite brakes, and a Baines International radical frame design.
