Hello all, I recently won a bike on Ebay which was made in Harrogate England by MM Cycles and looks to be 70s. It is Reynolds 531 tubing and very well made. I can't find any info on MM Cycles and would like to know more about the bike -does anyone know anything about this frame maker?

I am putting Camagnolo Nuovo Record on it but would also like a GB stem and GB bars for it to keep some stuff English. Did GB also make seatpins?

The crankset it came with is French Nervar and may be original but not sure. Should I keep it or use a NR crankset?

Pictures are available upon request.

Thanks, Derek Willburn Long Beach, CA
