Hi Stu

Unfortunately there are no frame numbers , and even the numbers banded around of "1000 frames made " seems a bit high to me, i suspect it will be much lower.(I hope anyway)

I seem to recall someone on RAD saying theres had No24 on it, but don't know where on the frame this was stamped, or who it was

I am intending to record a photo(or photos if the colour changed) of each survivor , giving it an unofficial number
 basically if you have a TRM - choose a number from 3 -1000 and send me your pics and any info you have , when bought etc etc

I'm having TRM #1  :LolLolLolLol: unless someone can prove theres is the 1st one
Derrick Owens is TRM#2

so it seems a good place to start

amazingly - my father in law used to work at Ansells brewery (closed in 1980) with Tony Peach , who was a "smashing bloke with a great pair of hands" Tony made all these frames himself!!(maybe incorrect-open to debate) apparantly he now lives in Spain.

I am also soon to contact Steve Fletcher, who you will remember ran the shop in Stechford for the Turnbull family.

loads more to tell, when i have more time.

as always any help with relevant  info or mistakes to my memory always welcomed .

Wonder if Brum Wheels made it as they were local eh  ? There was a guy at my school called Joff who rode 4 stechford cycles bitd . U know him ? not sure if it was a nick name tho  ::)

I remember visiting birmingham wheels and seeing the frames being made , but that wasn't the same place as TRM

remember the names Raggy, Trevor Robinson.

I need to get info from Jon and Dave Turnbull (son's stechford cycles) they would remember better than me as they used to race for the TRM/ Stechford cycles team

thanks for your interest
