1922 Royal Singer Ladies

 

1912-1922 Royal Singer Ladies

24″ Frame

28″ Wheels

Sturmey Archer ‘Model K’ 3 speed gear

 

I’m not 100% sure of the age of this Singer. I bought it from a museum collection, where they had described it as 1912. However, it has a Model K gear, which came out in 1922. I can’t find a frame number. So it may be an earlier model that was upgraded to gears after World War One (a common occurrence). Its main attribute is its superb restored condition. It has had a fortune spent on it, with all its bright parts re-nickelled and its paintwork expertly applied. The work was done as a labour of love without any consideration for the cost. Though the restoration was done some time ago, it has been carefully stored since and it is still in first class condition all round, and ready to ride.
