Jim Susans Tells me that he had two frames with the recommendation of Don Morley who had one of the frames for himself.
Jim built his first one into a bike for himself to ride but later sold it on, has did Don with his.
The second frame Jim built into a bike for the late Tony Rossie of the Barnet Club.

So I had a chat with Ally Clift, and he as kindly sent me the list of Foster Otter original Frame sales, that he had noted down in his sons old Truro school book...
So here you go this is the original sales list from him
~~~~~~~
So these are the 31 Frames and bikes that Ally Sold... he did have some back through his hands later on ...
And the remaining 12 frames were sold directly from Harry & Carol Foster...
Mark Foster may have the records for them... We Hope...
~~~~~~
This is the bike that I nearly bought. It went in my knowledge from Oxfordshire to Cornwall and then to Yorkshire?...
SO...
Let's see how many of these bikes we can bond with the current owners...
~~~~~~~
Just a start to this page and photos will be added, and I hope another twenty bikes...
