Hi Stewart. In the Feb 2000 edition of Cycling Today a UK cycling magazine Ron Cooper is attributed with building the contemporary version of the Bates Cantiflex. The address given is: Classic Bikes, Ventoux, Herriot Way, Great Totham, Maldon, Essex CM9 8BW phone from the states would be 011441621892710. By the way this edition of the magazine has information on the majority of UK builders still at work.
