1986 Bosomworth. This bike was ridden by my best friend (and coach during my cycling days) , Blair Cox. Blair and his twin brother Greg, and older brother Stephen all represented New Zealand. Blair rode this bike in the 100km ttt at the 1986 Commonwealth games in Edinburgh, Scotland.
Blair, along with Greg Fraine, Paul Leitch and Graeme Millar, won the silver medal.
The bike was custom built by one of New Zealand’s best frame builders at the time, Eddie Bosomworth.
The bike features an Ambrosio disc wheel, a spoked 26” front wheel, and Suntour components. The bike is in ‘as raced’ condition, with all original components
