    A friend had one of those back at school in 1972. By sheer coincidence, his nickname had long been Noddy being known as noddy bikes in the UK on account of their police riders being required to nod to senior officers).
    By the standards of the time (and, maybe all time), they were very smooth, very quiet and very slow.

    I purchased a Kit from Jane Kits in Australia it came in powder form to be mixed with demineralized water, the kit came complete with power supply zinc anodes and cleaners and was easy to use.

    Why was it that velos where so much more peppy and responsive than other brit singles which were let's face it basically the same design

      It's the way they were designed from small capacity to larger. No excess metal anywhere. No over engineering but it has it drawbacks. Small timing chains on big Velo singles.

    Gave a thumbs up but don't know why you would bother, must be some fond memories I guess. 😀 I suppose an LE beats walking.
