I've recently started looking into 20's road racing stuff, however, and have had almost no luck. I'm looking in particular for European racing bikes from the late 10's through the 20's, and haven't really even found a good source of information, let alone frames/parts/bikes for sale. If anybody has even the slightest suggestion, I would be grateful.

This is the only source of info on parts and bikes from the 1920s that I have come across.
