Need info on BRC PLEASE !

Boyes and Rosser cycles ltd, any info ?

Just bought this BRC 5 speed jaguar  20" banana seat bike from Crag's list Vancouver last week and serial numbers are hard to find on it , i do have some numbers, can i find any information on this bike ?

I was told that Boyes and Rosser ltd was in Vancouver ? and that this bike was built in Vancouver ?

Very nice bike and i think that i lucked out with the purchase ?

Any help is greatly appreciated thank you and have a great day.

Wow, that's in STELLAR condition!!  Absolutely incredible - that's a collector's item for sure!

I did definitely find a reference to BRC being a Vancouver company, but I really don't know anything more than what Google has.  From the look of the components and everything it's definitely a 1970's bike.  Good score!

Thank you, the guy still has it posted on Vancouver Craigslist , in bicycles type in "banana seat"

 i gave him full asking price, did i do good ?

Any info is great and thanks again !! PEACE !

Definitely - we paid $125 for a CCM Cheetah (girl's bike, but similar style) - nowhere NEAR as clean as that.  Girl's bikes often go for about 50% or less than boy's bikes.

Wouldn't be surprised to find you can double your money if you found the right buyer.  But keep her and ride the hell out of her, that's what they're for!!

I gave it to my son for his 9Th Birthday, he loves it and i don't plan on selling it, it's just too darn cool and my son and i are going to restore an older Huffy, side by side old school "Hot Rods" with wheelie bars and speedos and old chrome headlights on both.

Will post pic's.

Would be cool too find that the BRC was made in Vancouver and was able to get more info or sales brochure ect.

PEACE & HAPPY EASTER ! Thanks Bryn !
