The Bickerton Portable

This is a great bike! It was my first proper refurbishment project. It belonged to a keen cyclist who took this bike round the world on the ships he worked on, and used it when in port. It was i n good condition but needed general cleaning, some new parts and I stripped down the Sturmey Archer AW 3-speed hub gear.

Stripping down the SA AW 3-speed. I bit of rust and old blobs of grease, otherwise in good condition.
