I am now the proud owner of one of these British Sampson Cyclaid I am going to bolt it to my 1938 lady's Rudge. Expect lots of " My ped does 95" threads.

It looks rather light. I reckon you could get away without wearing a helmet, riding in bus lanes and running red lights!

You need a plate, MOT, insurance, licence and a hat to use it on the road. Looks heaps of laughs though. It started to get heavy in my rucksack on the train from the NEC Mr. Green

It should do 18mph if I tune it well. This could open up the world to me, places like Tamworth and Dudley will be within a days travel. I am very tempted to buy a far more bizarre piece of kit from the same guy but I need a pre WW1 push bike to fit it to first.

I await a new addition to the spill counter from the oldest ped-boi in town...All this talk of speed, on a ladies shopping bike
is sure to end in scuffs to your garish leathers Smile Wink

I know someone who collects Rover pushbikes, I don't know if he would be willing to part with any of them but I can always ask for you.

I concur Wink

However what I really wanted to say was "some guys I met on the net say it will go 93" hmmm...is that the same kinda reliability as "I heard from a guy in the pub" "My dad says" and "Everyone says" then?

I've gotta say if you put those in order yours would be at the bottom of the list Razz Don't trust people you meet online, most of the time they're not who they claim to be.

Good point,
However.....My mate's mate has one and his mate measured his speed with his Busa. He said it kept up until 85 (indicated) with the Busa but topped out slowly at just under the ton. Realistically speaking and taking account of the speedo's built in tendency to exaggerate I think that 90MPH is a realistic top end. Looking at my Rudge though I can see huge scope for adding NO2 bottles into the wicker shopping basket.
