TJ Quick Fillet Braised Road Bike

Tom Quick was an important post-war South London frame builder for which there is little written down. Tom is now in his 80s and was building bikes for most of his working life, he built his first frame in the garden shed, took it to Holdsworths and asked them to check it over and they offered him a job as a frame builder so that was where he started. He later set up on his own building frames in the back of the Don Louis shop in Dulwich Road then opened his own shop just a few doors down the road. He then moved to a workshop in Battersea followed by a move to Forest Hill, in South London England, he also did other engineering works. If you remember the "Goodies" on TV, Tom made the triplet that they use to ride.

Frame:
The frame and fork are made of Columbus SLX, high quality Italian Chromalloy steel tubing. They have been fillet brazed and have very attractive fast back chain stays. This may be the one of the highest quality framesets available at the time.
