The owner, a V-CC member, bought this, at the Beaulieu-fair (2002) in the south of England, in poor condition, but exceptional complete, only the rims and mudguards had to be obtained. The saddle is new, wowen by another V-CC member.

Sturmey-Archer 3 speed hub (original).
That is, it says BSA (Birmingham Small Arms) on the hub, but it's because Sturmey-Archer and BSA had a partnership at that time.
