Due to ongoing health issues I have only managed 2 race days and 3 parade meetings since I bought the bike in Oct 2022 and its too good to sit in a garage so reluctantly now sellingThe Bike was built by Steve Elliot - a highly respected racer with amongst others CMRC and Ken Rutter a highly skilled engine builder and tuner and over the years has developed to the specification offered today
The bike was offered for sale to Simon Lehane by Steve and Ken in 2016 and sold to me Oct 2022
Steve and Ken know the history and provenance around the bike including the Chassis fabricated by Asa Moyce who was a talented British Championship racer in the70's.
Asa built around 150 of these licenced "Drixton " frames in Ireland and sold them worldwide , one of which is on this bike
