1957 Western Flyer Lightweight

by Davey · April 26, 2011

This is a 1957 Norman manufactured Western Flyer. It’s been refurbished for reliability and includes a Sachs Torpedo Dreigang three speed, with a coaster brake, and new tires. I tried to keep with the original character of the bike and used cork grips and the Brooks seat is original. It’s classic in an understated English lightweight way!
