Hey there!
I'm totally new to this forum. I just bought a "Raynal" vintage bicycle made in Birmingham (printed on front and rear tags) in 1961, according to the digits on the 3-speed rear hub. I sent several questions on two different vintage bikes forums but it seems very hard to get any information about this particular make. The only thing I learned was that Raleigh probably bought Raynal in 1962 or so.
What I'd like to know is when did Raynal started to make biles, when did they stop, how many bikes did they use to make a year and how many specifically in 1961, and how many different models did they use to make?
I could send a few pictures if it could help. Any information will be appreciated.
