    Saracen - British 6 wheel

    If you are looking to get one, my best advice is find the best one out there. It's much cheaper in the long run and more enjoyable. Also manuals are key.

    Bump, I'm curious how this turned out. Is the consensus on here that these are not worth the hassle? Is there anyone in USA that restores or overhauls these? I have been offered one that is a paperweight now, appears to be complete, but I am just wondering whether it's financially viable to...
