Incredibly pleased with how the 1950s GB hiduminium spearpoint stem and matching 1950s GB Ventoux bars look on the Royal Enfield Pacemaker! Next step- look for GB Sports or GB Coureur brakes and GB Super Hood levers in good condition.

Wonderful lugs!!
Looks great. What are the drivetrain plans?
Looking up “Hiduminium” on Wikipedia I see
“the post-war Reynolds company, already known for its steel bicycle frame tubes, would attempt to survive in the peacetime market by supplying Hiduminium alley components for high-end aluminium bicycle cranks and brakes.”. Is the word “components” in the wrong place? Was Reynolds supplying bicycle components in the post-war years?. (I’m aware that there’s now a USA company, called “Reynolds” making modern bicycle components.) Did the UK Reynolds make more than tubes for bicycles?
