Thornhill Fixed Gear? Track? Bicycle
Hello all!
A friend of mine is looking to sell an Thornhill fixed gear (track bike). Maybe made in Scotland or England?
Does anyone know about them. Looks pretty nice. Value or at least comparison to other bikes?
Thank you

Steve Thornhill is discussed in the following thread. He was in Birmingham, and some say didn't build frames, but he did paint and put his decals on them. There is one other thread here that talks about a Thornhill and the bike looks very nice. Especially the lugwork.

The other thing that may impact value is your location. I love track bikes so I'd love to see it.

Looks to be a popular size and the paint is nice, reminds me of some Colnago's I've seen.
The picture really doesn't help much otherwise. Do you have any closeups? Would like to see details of the lugs, the cranks, etc.
