A world champion's track bike built by an Olympian

Tommy Godwin classic bike.

While Graham Webb is perhaps best known for winning the 1967 Amateur Road Race World Championship, his palmares on the track is equally impressive. In 1966 Webb won the National 4,000 metres individual pursuit title, as well the team pursuit. The Birminghman born rider also set national records for 10, 25 miles and the hour; he held the latter for decades until Graeme O’Bree and then Chris Boardman surpassed his mark. And this is the bike he did it on.
