This model appeared at the time that the Sunbeam company was sold to AMC, and it’s an interesting combination of the historic older Sunbeams with oil bath gear case and old style Sunbeam split pedals, and the new breed of sporty machines. Apart from slight damage to the left side grip (repairable with glue), it is excellent all round, with its original paintwork and transfers in exceptional condition. It features dynamo lighting (untested), Terry’s saddle (as per the catalogue specification) and wide ratio hub brakes. It’s ready to ride.
