Their big seller at my era would have been lower down the price range, Black Diamond etc. How many did they sell, not many at all would be my guess. When you unboxed a Falcon you were never sure what would be revealed lol and their frame numbers were a total mystery! We were a Raleigh 5 star dealer but sold other marques such as Falcon, Dawes, Puch, Holdsworth etc. The Falcon was my road bike, in the pic you can see my TT bike, a Kevin Sayles Bob Jackson.Īs a company Falcon seemed somewhat amateurish lol. The decals on my Falcon are completely wrong. The pink should be the same as the pink decal Falcon used with Giro D'italia on it.

I didn't fancy the team blu so it was taken off the production line and sent somewhere for painting, never found out where. I acquired it via Billy Holmes who was our Falcon rep back then, real nice bloke. The San Remo will be circa 1975, and yep it's the Equipe, you obviously know your Falcon's
