SP 8206

John McCarthy contacted me with information about his bike…

I had a 531SL TT frame built by Stan back in 1982. The build was arranged for by Pip Brown of Stonehenge Cycles in Salisbury.  The frame number is SP8206 with 531 SL also stamped on the BB. There is also ‘EO’ in a triangle also stamped.

I used to race for the Salisbury Road Club back in the 60’s and early 70’s, but used a Mercian Superlight then!

The Stan Pike is a superb machine and I achieved personals on it at 10 and 25 miles.
