Sun first began the production of cycle parts in 1885 and by 1906 were producing a range of machines. Their main period of fame was from the middle 20s through to the 50s. They remained a stalwart of the Birmingham bike scene up until their takeover by Raleigh in the 1960’s.
This build was based around bringing new life to a freshly powder coated vintage frameset on a budget. We used mostly BLB components including bars, stem and crankset. We hand build a custom set of purple Halo track wheels with an aerotrack rim (no braking surface) on the rear and aerorage (with braking surface) on the front. We later added straps and a front brake to keep this safe out on the road.
