🌟 Item of the Month! 🌟

This month’s top pick is something a bit different, but honestly too good not to share a classic chrome track handlebar that’s perfect for anyone building or restoring a vintage bike.

I came across this and instantly thought someone is going to love this. The chrome finish has that proper old-school look, and the shape gives off real vintage track vibes. If you’re into custom builds or bringing old bikes back to life, this is such a nice piece to work with.

💡 Why it’s special:
• That shiny chrome finish… it just looks clean.
• Steel build — strong, solid, and made to last.
• Perfect for vintage track or fixie projects.
• Harder to find nowadays, especially in decent condition.

🚲 Bike of the Fortnight

H.E. "Doc" Green 23" Lugged Steel Frame – A Proper Vintage Build Project

One for the vintage bike enthusiasts! This H.E. "Doc" Green frame is a lovely bit of British cycling history, hand-built with classic lugwork and a real sense of charm.

Finished in deep green with cream detailing, it’s got that understated elegance you just don’t get with modern bikes. The paint shows some honest age-related marks, but nothing that takes away from its character. It’s the ideal starting point for a retro restoration or custom steel build.

🔧 Frame details:
• 23" Reynolds 531 tubing (frame and forks)
• Original H.E. head badge still present
• Crisp lugged joints and classic geometry
• Horizontal dropouts – perfect for singlespeed or geared setups
• Frame & fork only (no BB or headset included)
• No dents or cracks – just a few surface scuffs from years gone by

It’s light, well-made, and built to last. Whether you're rebuilding it for L’Eroica, a Sunday spin, or just to hang in the shed and admire, this one’s worth a look.

🚴‍♂️ Not our usual kind of stock… but we couldn't resist these.

We have Just picked up a set of vintage Shimano posters and they’re something else. Think Stonehenge rebuilt with hubs, derailleurs, brakes and all. Ancient cave paintings featuring chainrings, and even Egyptian carvings offering up cycling shoes. Whoever came up with these ads back in the day had a serious imagination, and we’re here for it.

They’re framed, full of character, and a real throwback to a time when bike advertising had a bit more fun with itself.

We’re curious, what’s your favourite cycling ad of all time? Maybe something that stuck with you from a magazine, a poster in a bike shop, or one of those weird ones you still think about. Drop it in the comments, we’d love to see what you remember.

These posters are up for sale too, so if you’re interested please just send us a message.
