This Gloria has done both the British and Italian Eroica, chewing itself to bits in the process. Restored by Argos, it was the first time they had seen such a thing and nearly lost a few off the lug Fleur de Lis embellishments. Luckily they located them in time for the respray. Originally these frames were nickel plated rather than silver paint, but needs must,

The chainset is Gnutti (not the splined version) and the mech is Simplex Champion du Monde.
