Does anyone out there have any info on Hamilton frames built in the bay area during the late 80's - early 90's. They have 24 inch wheels and were built for time trials. I have one and I love it. I also have found 2 additional wheelsets taken from a deceased one on Craigslist awhile back. I have thoroughly scoured the internet but have come up entirely empty handed so far.
Any leads or info would be tremendously appreciated!!

Awesome! Do you live in the Bay Area, by chance? There seems to be a few more left around here than anywhere else. The bikes were built in San Francisco by Ralph Hamilton Lewis, a former South African that gained citizenship and lived and retired in the Concord area of the Bay. If he is still alive he's about 82 years old now. I would sure enjoy talking to him if he is. Since I started this thread, someone emailed me an article and interview with Mr. Lewis from 1989 from Bicycle Guide Magazine. At that time the frame alone sold for $800 dollars! Any more input is still welcome by me, I'm still at a loss as to how to proceed with the yellow project. Finding all the Mavic parts is a challenge alone. According to the article, the front chainring should be a 54/63 tooth! I doubt I'll ever find that!

Hi.
It was great to find this link and forum about the Hamilton bike.
I just bought one and have no idea about year and any other information about this bike on Google. The owner told me that he bought the last frame issued and built it sometime in 1980s. The frame is white/purple.
I would like to know more about this bike and need suggestion about on to how to bring it back on road.
Thank you.

CycleScience 24" wheel with Sattui
My uncle built a 24" wheeled bike for pro triathlete Sarah Springman in the late 80's. She had some Sattui wheels for it as well as conventional wheels. It's all in my spare bedroom at the moment :-D I've restored it and ridden it, but not the Sattui wheels yet (the old tubulars on them will need replacing, and tbh I might be a bit too heavy for them).

Welcome to Bike Forums.
You'll need 10 posts, but after 10 you can post a picture of the bike.
Going to need a picture, or it never happened. 8-)
