Hello, have a 1967 P11 frame that has had a dodgy repair that has pushed some frame lugs out of alignment. 

Looking for recommendation of a UK (ideally in the Midlands) frame repaired who can make good the repair and re-align the frame

Thanks Richard

I can recommend John Hand Racing but he is in Dorset - search JHR on facebook.

If you fancy a drive up to Widnes Ian Bain is your man.
He is a professional bike restorer, bike racer, mostly Norton's such as a C1, Manx etc, pattern maker, castings, frame repairer. An all round good bloke my go to chap for the stuff that I haven't the equipment to enable me to sort out.
His prices are V reasonable worth a call if your interested.

My go to place is Maidstone Motoliner in Ayelsford, Kent.  They have now done three frames for me including a featherbed and a set of fork yokes. Their work is exemplary and I can't recommend them enough.
Might be a bit of a trek for you though.

John Hand is highly recommended. No website, go via Facebook etc. He has attended to P11 frames. NMM may point you in right direction, worth a try. Norman White did my P11 Lower Frame Rail, but retired now. What exactly is wrong? You will get there in the end. Cheers Andy
