He brought this home as a basket case basically! Took it fully fully apart. Stripped and sand blasted the frame, white pearl powder coated it, black powder coated fenders and fork. Added a derailleur since it was single speed before. Changed the front chain ring to a larger campagnolo one. New pedals, cables, everything! We are quite happy with how it came out! Next mod he wants to do, is convert the rear wheel to a sturmey-arch internal 4 speed hub.
What is cool about these is that they were out in the 60’s in England and the same person, Mr Moulton used the same style rear suspension setup in Mini coopers! Basically a rubber puck so not the best but hey mini coopers handled great and they sold millions so sometimes simpler is better. It’s rare the see these with both racks and not rusted out!
We’re quite proud of this one and I plan to keep it forever!

That’s had a lot of work done to it. What rims are on it?
Some moultons have like a little rubber balloon, but this one has solid rubber?
I wonder how the ride feels like vs a brompton
