FOLDING PARATROOPER BIKE
Hello Gents!
I have recently acquired a folding para bike and looking to acquire a few parts to bring it closer to its original state. Can anyone offer me any good contacts who can assist with replacement parts? Thanks in advance! Cheers

Wow!
Great purchase, I imagine you will have to find a real specialist for any spares. I can ask someone but not sure if they can help with this. You could try and contact Bruce Compton /Combat Dealers, he seems to find hard to get stuff, Paul |

Hello
A little while ago there were some Dutch dealers who were making spare parts for the folding para bike - brake handles, brakes, pedals and so on. I'm not sure if they are still about (I am a little out of touch in that area now) but you might try Milweb - http://www.milweb.net/classifieds.php Good luck Roger |

Why not, does not hurt to ask, Bruce Crompton is the director of Axis Track Services, nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Just a quick follow up. Stuart Bray has spares for the parabike here - http://www.milweb.net/webvert/a1410

Awesome Gents! Thank you for the leads. Perhaps once I get things in order I will post a few pics. I've had several of these bikes come through my hands over the years but this one is my first restoration project.
Cheers

I got most of my parts for my Para Bike from Stuart Bray, costly, but good condition and original. Bits do come up on eBay, Milweb and the WWII forums from time to time.
