Holdsworth Triathlon?

Post by Sooper8 »

I have an option on this bike but haven't seen it, or even pictures.

Does anybody know what era this is from or anything about what it should look like in it's original state?

Thanks in advance

Definitely not an original Holdsworth as the name was taken over long before triathlons became popular enough for purpose built bikes.

Could it be Triath Elan model from around 1984http://www.nkilgariff.com/HoldsModelPages/TriathElan.htm

Grandad- yes, I take your point.
BoltonRed, thanks for that.

I will enquire further, get pictures and let you know the outcome

I previously had an Holdsworth Triath Elan. Bought new in 1986 for around £250. Good frame but basic components.
