Does anybody know where i can find/does anybody have a Rattray's Flying Scot bike they are willing to sell me? I've been trying to pick one of these old Scottish bikes for a while but nothing has been coming up on eBay.

Cheers JIm

    We have this old Reynolds 531 in our garage but my dad is very much a hoarder.

    I've tried time and time again to get him to do something with it, be that send it off to see if it can be restored, to sell or even just let it go. It's probably nothing special but it deserves better than sitting carroding in our damp garage. I had ideas of turning it - if it can be saved - into a lovely summer poser or perhaps a single-speed/fixed but so far my porpositions have fallen on deaf ears. I'll try again though.
