Description: Step back into the vibrant world of mid-century British cycling culture with this rare 1965-66 edition of Bike-Riders Aids booklet. Published by Holdsworth, a well-known British manufacturer of bicycles and accessories, this compact guide was an essential resource for cyclists, covering everything from gear tables for 26” and 27” wheels to listings of clothing, racing gear, and the latest components from the most reputable brands of the era, including Campagnolo. Whether you were a casual rider or a competitive cyclist, this booklet provided invaluable information on how to optimize your ride with the best equipment available at the time. Inside, you’ll find detailed tables, advertisements for cycling gear, and recommendations for the best products on the market, all carefully curated by the experts at Holdsworth. The inclusion of British and Italian-made products, along with listings for frame parts, clothing, and racing extras, provides a nostalgic look into how the cycling industry once operated. A fascinating feature of this booklet is its vintage advertisements, offering a peek into the marketing and pricing strategies of the 1960s cycling world. For example, enthusiasts will appreciate the mention of Campagnolo’s latest racing caps and chainrings, alongside hand-drawn illustrations that transport readers back to a golden age of cycling. The booklet remains in good vintage condition. There is light wear on the cover, typical of its age, but all internal pages are intact and free from significant marks. The spine is strong, and the illustrations and tables are clearly legible.
