Union Jack Cycle Current Status?

« on: April 13, 2024, 06:59:38 AM »

I’m wondering if anyone has had any business interaction with these fellows recently? There are some strong rumours within the classic bike ‘community’ currently. Very negative rumours, about which I’m not about to publicly disclose.

Well. Again, not sure if there are someone or a single person representing them incorrectly, but apparently there's someone representing themselves as Union Jack who have taken in at least one Vincent for full restoration, with cash deposit, where the bike and the person representing themselves as Union Jack have disappeared.

I sure the modern Messerschmitt today, went for a road test. Decided to go to the current location of Union Jack,. There was a problem,,,,,,,the place has been bulldozed, and there’s a brand new mega house there, without any shop or even place to work on a bike. That’s a problem!
