Information needed on Alan Richards 531c bike frame
Posted: 5 Jul 2016, 4:57pm
Hello all,
I'm hoping someone can shed a little light on a bike that has come into my collection.
It is an Alan Richards frame which looks to be from the late 80's or early 90's - now I know these were sold by Alan from Tower Cycles in Erdington Birmingham.
But all the info I have found suggests that he built some of the bikes and had others made, or even refubished some.
all the references to serial numbers says they have TC and a series of numbers stamped on them - but mine just simply has "f16" stamped in the BB shell.
I'm curious to know if this would be one that he has built? or any other information about it for that matter.
I noticed on my web searches that someone on here seemed to know a lot about Alan Richards - I'd just love to know a bit more about my bike
I really hope someone can help......
