WORTHY RACING SHORTS

HEAVY GRADE COTTON
Sizes: 32″ and 34″ only in both types.
Chamois Seated for comfort and hard wear. Black 17/6
Cotton Double Seat. Ideal ‘novice’ short. Black 11/8
TAKE CARE OF YOUR SHORTS
In the interests of hygiene, comfort and preservation your shorts require washing after each time worn. Most people realise that wool needs careful laundering, CHAMOIS needs exactly the same sort of care, … only more so ! !
Hand wash in warm soapy suds, rinse in clean soapy water which should be allowed to dry naturally into the leather. Stretch gently to correct size while still damp and manipulate gently to soften the leather when dry.
AVOID Hot Water, Detergents, Washing Machines, Hard Wringing, Leaving Wet and Screwed Up, Grease

WORTHY STOCKINGS
QUADRILLE
Really bold diamonds, clear-cut in solid colours vividly contrasted for maximum impact. Absolutely right with the plain colours and muted shades of today’s trouser fashions. 100% fine gauge wool, these hose are close knit and hand finished for a warm and comfortable fit. With plain tops elasticated to fit just below the knee. In four colour combinations. Navy with Red and Blue diamonds. Grey with Black and White. Green with Red and Yellow. Fawn with Red and Green contrasts. Sizes 9″-11 1/2″ 11/6
PLAIN WOOL
Ideal early season training socks as they will not over stretch light racing shoes. Close fine ribbed all wool hose, with elasticated tops, in Plain shades of Saxe Blue, Sedge Green, Wine or Black. Sizes 10″-11 1/2″ … 9/2
HARLEQUIN
A single line of small bold diamonds identify these modern hose. Made in the same fine wool as used for the Quadrille, plain elasticated tops and close ribbing ensure a close fit. The diamonds are in ‘solid’ contrast colours, hand finished, on either side of the leg. Equally smart with shorts or pantalons, everyone admires a strikingly coloured sock.

CRODONI RACING SHOES
Crodoni racing shoes introduced from Italy last year proved so popular that we have extended the range. We are sure the Strada and Kangaroo will be readily adopted by those who prefer an undrilled upper.
“VELOCE”
PURSUIT
SHOE
With its sweeping lines and slender waist, perforated upper and pliable sole, supported at the instep by a light steel support, will appeal to all riders who are seeking the lightest and coolest of shoes. The high front laces to an inch of the toe and the ankle is neatly trimmed. Designed as a purely racing shoe (not suitable for Club ‘football’ or Cyclo Cross), the light sole carries no heel. Hand made in metric sizes 38 m. to 48 m. State English size required and nearest 1/2 size (e.g. 8″, 8 1/2″ equals 43 m.) … 59/9
“GIRO”
ROAD
SHOE
A road shoe with the latest ideas of comfort. Well spaced larger perforations in the upper are combined in the Continental fashion with eight holes in the sole. These holes serve a double purpose; in hot weather they keep the feet ideally cool, whilst in rain, when normal shoes became ‘water-logged’ they enable excess water to run out and avoid the discomfort of waterfilled shoes. The sturdy sole of the ‘Giro’ with its four-point steel support elminates foot fatigue over the longer distances. Sizes as ‘Veloce’ … 71/9
[Folio 18.]
[Two photographs of low-cut perforated leather racing shoes: the Veloce pursuit shoe above and the Giro road shoe below.]
— Page 20 —
Both new models are introduced with further refinements. Special absorbent Nylon covered sponge inner-soles and small toe pads are fitted for extra comfort. The ‘Crodoni’ mark is stamped in Gold on the soft tongue which is anchored into position on the inside of each shoe. Small lace eyelet holes are reinforced by fibreglass tape and the range is made in 1/2 sizes for the convenience of British riders. Range is from 5 to 12 in half sizes.
“STRADA”
ROAD
SHOE
Beautifully shaped from a full chrome calf side leather, the mouth is cut very low with a neatly rolled edging. High lacing at the front and a well curved heel line ensure riding comfort. A horseshoe heel is fitted to the sole of French Viklite which is so very supple, hard-wearing and consistent in quality, that a thinner sole can be used. Reinforced at the instep by a Nylon shank located by three rivets. A real ‘class’ shoe for racing or general club-riding … 64/9
“KANGAROO”
ROAD
PATH
Similar in general design to the Strada this very light shoe has the upper made from genuine Kangaroo leather which has an extremely high strength to weight ratio. Fibreglass tape strapping at the heel and instep, as used in the best quality running shoes, further strengthens this remarkable ‘feather soft’ upper. The first quality full length leather sole is reinforced by a Nylon shank with three point fixing. No heel is fitted, but these are available separately if required … 74/9
HORSESHOE HEELS. Easily fitted with adhesive by your repairer to the Kangaroo or Veloce flat soles 1/6

WORTHY SHOES
For more than thirty years shoes bearing this name have been used by keen discerning riders throughout Britain and more recently in many other parts of the world. With this long experience of cyclists requirements in footwear we are proud to offer our latest range; combining ‘know how’ in design with recent advances in materials and manufacturing techniques. All the uppers are fashioned from full chrome leather and the lower prices of some styles are due mainly to production costs rather than a reduction of material quality.
All Worthy shoes available in full and half sizes.
GRAN
SPORT
Sizes 3-12
An all-black shoe in the popular ‘soft’ style without pedal patches or toe stiffening. The upper is reinforced over the instep by four diagonal rows of stitching on each side, which prevent spread and retain a close fit. Some stiffening of the heel back is provided to prevent slipping and ensure comfortable riding even after considerable service. A light ‘V’ heel is fitted to the strong leather sole 42/11
RECORD
Sizes 2-12
A stout all round clubman’s shoe with a tough though supple black leather upper tastefully trimmed with a subdued red trimming. Both heel and toe are reinforced and a pedal patch is provided.

Sizes 3-12

TRACK MITTS
CRODONI
The best track mitt to be produced by this famous firm who make for the top flight Italian professional riders. Made of extremely supple reversed chamois kid, the stepped fingers are neatly finished at the edges for comfort and the reinforcement patch is shaped to the palm. An unusual crocheted back is of very open pattern for maximum coolness but, made in strong thread, maintains its shape and, assisted by the adjustable wrist strap, is always a good fit. The thumb back is similar in design and without doubt these are the finest mitts ever made by Crodoni of Milan … 29/8

MAESTRO TRAINING SUITS

UNIVERSAL BRAKES
CENTRE PULL Mod. 61
The Universal is recognised as the best brake to be produced in Italy and the most recent model, the 61, will certainly maintain their reputation. Operating on the centre pull, wire control system, two neat alloy arms are pivoted from either end of a strong anchor plate clamped to the forks. Coil springs mounted on the pivot bosses ensure an instant release but allow the blocks to ‘ follow ‘ an untrue rim. The ‘straddle’ wire may be slipped from its sockets to release tension and allow rapid wheel removal. Soft studded blocks give positive grip in all weathers. Pair complete with levers 67/6
UNIVERSAL LEVERS
Powerful lever with Nylon bushed brass pivot. Hood and built-in cable adjuster covered with a translucent rubber grip. Each 17/6

BRAKES G.B. British
SYNCHRON (Illustrated). This latest brake from G.B. represents an entirely new approach to the design problems of efficient caliper brakes. The side anchored cable is the only link with conventional side pull practice, every feature of the action being symmetric. This is achieved by the use of two separate stirrup pivots mounted on a common back plate. The shoes are held ‘off’ by a single spring which glides on two Nylon rollers when the brake is applied. Supplied complete with Superhood Rapide levers (illustrated) which have patented spring loaded Nylon Quick Release thumb slides housed between lever and hood. The slides return automatically when a brake is applied thus avoiding the risk of poor braking after a wheel change … 49/6

CAMPAGNOLO CHAINSETS
Without doubt the finest chainset ever produced, thoroughly tested by professional riders and proved supreme in competition; almost every major title was taken by Campagnolo equipped riders in 1961.
ALLOY COTTERLESS
These superb cranks are machined to fine engineering limits from solid alloy forgings ensuring by their accuracy that the chainrings run perfectly true. Chemically polished to a lustrous ‘satin’ finish the latest pattern have a narrow ‘flatter’ section to cut down wind resistance and close down the ‘tread’ width. The rings, not[?] pressed but machined from solid blanks, sit on square shoulders[?] and are clamped to the five crank arms by screwed bushes locked with a small Allen key. A neat chrome plate blanks off the axle hole maintaining the ‘immaculate’ Campagnolo tradition. A four sided taper spline on the axle fits into the crank and is locked by means of a large headed bolt, giving an absolutely solid drive. Provided the axle and crank splines are fitted together clean and dry no further adjustments are necessary to maintain correct positioning or tightness.
Supplied complete with bottom bracket set, finished in satin chrome, and two pre-lubricated cages of 1/4″ balls.
Double Set complete with bracket fittings (less the tool set). Ring sizes 44–52T (larger sizes extra, see overleaf
for details) … 231/-

REGINA MULTIPLE FREEWHEELS
The Italian block which is almost universally used both
on the Continent and in this country. Suitable for all
gears, it is designed with a flush back and narrow body,
leaving ample spindle on Quick Release hubs. Generally
agreed to be the smoothest running freewheel. The
races, set as far apart as possible, are ground and lapped
to take the full amount of 1/8″ balls (no spacers).
Compare REGINA to any other and note the superior
finish and smoothness of operation.
All cogs are detachable, sizes 13-28 (no 27T).
The sprockets are mounted on a body (illustrated
above) which has three different bores: A, B and C.
4 Speeds. Bore A carries No. 1 cog (14-16T), bore B the
second cog (16-20T), bore C two cogs (17-28T).
5 Speeds. The smallest cog No. 5 has a male thread,
inserted inside a special cog No. 4, which fits the small
bore A, making a double sprocket.
N.B. If a 13 tooth top sprocket is required, this cog
No. 7, will not fit cog No. 4 but is inserted into a cog
No. 6 with a smaller diameter female thread available in
sizes 14, 15 and 16T.
FIVE SPEEDS are therefore available:—Top (14-16T),
Second (15-18T), Middle (16-20T), Bottom cogs with left
thread (17-28 but no 27); or with 13T Top, 14, 15, 16T
Second, Middle and Bottom as above. Any ratio 21/6

CAMPAGNOLO GRAN SPORT
The gear whose patented action
has been copied by all others.
The deformable parallelogram
ensures a rapid and positive gear
change under any conditions. The
roller cage is fully supported in
all positions by the body which
is machined in bronze. Pivot
pins are bushed with phosphor-
bronze for long life. The first
class materials used throughout,
combine with precision machining
to produce an article whose
mechanical efficiency and superb
finish has set new standards for the cycle industry.
Spring loaded adjusting screws allow any number of
gears to be used with the same mechanism over a range
of 16-18 teeth.
Dominating the Continental racing scene during 1961,
the World Road Championship won by Rik Van Looy
set the seal on a most successful year, again proving
Campagnolo best.

MEDAL
TUBULARS
The range of tyres introduced last year from the new factory at Nice
proved so popular that a further two models have been added for the
1962 season. Signor D’Alessandro produced the ‘Worthy’ tread
pattern especially for the British rider and this is now mounted on a
new tubular of smaller section, fully rubbered for winter use. The
Cyclo-Cross has already been well proven in its specialised field.
SILK IMPERFORABILE 7 3/4 ozs.
This famous tyre is offered to the
British rider at a lighter weight than
ever before. The top quality silk
pocket carries a light tread and a
light tube but retains the rubber and
canvas ‘breaker’ strips responsible
for top ‘puncture-resistance’. We are
confident that many wins will be
recorded on these tyres during the
coming season. At 7 3/4 ozs., suitable for races at any distance.
SPECIFY SILK FOR SHEER SPEED … … … 69/11
IMPERFORABILE 9 3/4 ozs.
Long recognized as the finest ‘distance’ tyre ever produced. Will
give an incredible number of racing miles. A top grade pocket of
Sea Island cotton carries a hard rubber tread above an elastic raw
rubber strip which gives durability and amazing puncture resistance
65/11
GIRO D’ITALIA 9 ozs.
A first class racing tyre at a lighter weight than previously supplied.
Fast and reliable with slightly more ‘girth’ than the Imperf., a best
quality pocket and hard wearing black rubber tread … 57/11
N.B.—The above three types can be supplied either in File
(illustrated) or Fine Ribbed pattern treads.

D’ALESSANDRO TUBULARS
CRITERIUM 8 1/2 ozs.
BLACK OR ORANGE TREAD
A light fast tyre with the modern
multi-ribbed tread which can be
used with confidence on either wet
or dry surfaces. Proved to be
exceptionally hard – wearing, the
distinctive orange tread has eye
appeal and supplies a bright contrast
during dull wet races. An unusually light tube in the best
quality fabric gives the tyre extra zip. Ideal for short and middle
distance events—good for a season’s hard racing, fitted with a
rubber base tape … … … … … … … 59/11
LEGERE 7 1/4 ozs. (195 grms.)
A lightweight tyre with smooth
band, matt impression, tread on a
narrow pocket of first class cotton
fabric. Fitted with a cotton base
tape, ideal for Pursuits, general
trackwork and fast 25-mile events
49/11
EXTRA LEGERE 5 1/2 ozs. (160 grms. approx.)
A track tyre pure and simple with a very light tube and light cotton
fabric balanced to the full width smooth band tread. Fitted with a
cotton base tape so that shellac type rim adhesive may be used for
maximum security on the bankings. The very light weight is a guide
to the quality of this tyre which has more than one Olympic Gold
medal to its credit … … … … … … … 55/11
SPECIALISSIMO 11 ozs.
A top quality light weight vulcanised
tubular with the distinctive
Italian tread. A good class fabric
and tube, for speed, make it an
ideal ‘Circuit’ tyre where its reliability
and cornering are great assets
39/11

[Three line drawings of tubular tires cut away to show the casing and base tape, with a multi-ribbed tread, a smooth tread and an Italian tread.]

D’ALESSANDRO TUBULARS
SPORT 14 ozs.
A tyre with a ‘meaty’ tread of fast
ribs flanked by file bands. The latex
covered fabric, of better quality than
is usual in a tubular at this price,
accounts for the liveliness of this
general purpose tubular. With rubber
base tape, excellent value at 29/11
CYCLO CROSS 12 1/2 ozs.
Designed specifically for Cyclo-
Cross racing, this tyre can be of
great use to grass track riders
and hill climbers. A sturdy
‘knobbly’ tread is mounted on a
comparatively light pocket over
a light tube. The centre band
of small ‘diamonds’ flanked by
bold ‘knobs’, allows speed to be maintained where normal tyres
would lose traction and stability … … … … 37/11
WORTHY 15 1/2 ozs.
A tough ‘riding-about’ tubular
allowing sprints to be used in
the winter. Highly recommended
when road conditions are bad.
The ‘all-round’ tread pattern of
raised ‘diamonds’ offers a new
experience in road holding, allowing
safe cornering on wet or icy
roads. Fully rubbered side walls
and rubberised base tape need little
attention. A side ribbing is provided to drive your dynamo. Use the
Worthy for touring at all times … … … … 31/11
WHEEL COVERS
Essential for the track man who has spare wheels, with tyres inflated
to high pressure, laying in open track centres. Simplest and best
method of protecting tubulars from chafing when cycle is transported
by road or rail. Ideal protection for any tyres left on wheels not in
use. Proofed material fitted with strong elastic and hooks. Nylon
reinforced tread band … … … … … each 9/9

A FEW NOTES ON TUBULAR CARE
When folding ensure that the tread is on the outside of all bends.
Keep tyres tightly stuck on rims—a tyre that ‘rolls’ to one side
will be cut through wall by edge of rim. Keep base tapes in good
order—if rim spoke holes are allowed to chafe through, the main
stitching will be damaged and blow-outs follow. Fill all cuts in
tread with stopping compound—water penetrating these will rot
tube pocket, causing twisting, uneven wear and blow-outs. Do not
over-tighten connector on valve when inflating—this tends to loosen
valve securing nuts and a slow leaking will follow. Tubular walls
chafe easily—protect them when carried as spares, on wheels or
folded under saddle. Do not leave wet tyres in a deflated condition
—pockets will deteriorate.
TUBULAR CARRIER
“FULMINE”. Italian Quick-Release carrier with strong elastic
cords. When making rapid tyre changes, the carrier remains bolted
to the saddle wires, the elastic cords are drawn round the replaced
tyre by a finger ring with hook attached and this holds the tubular
secure … … … … … … … … 7/6

“WIRED-ON” TYRES
CONSTRICTOR
Hand made tyres produced like top class tubulars, with treads fixed
by cold processes to the walls which thus retain full resilience. Not
designed for utility riding but light and easy running. Four types:—
Brillani. An 11 oz. tyre, as the Supalatti illustrated below, but with
a Continental tread of fine rib design extending well down the side.
Fast and stable, in 27″ only … … … … … 38/-
Supalatti. Weighing only 11 ozs., this
is the lightest cover available and as can
be seen from the illustration is of narrow
section. The tread is of Continental make
of fine file pattern. Suitable for racing.
27″ only … … … … 36/-
Asp. A 14 oz. tyre with deep file pattern
tread well built up in the centre.
In 26″ and 27″ … … … 30/-
Adder. Similar to the Asp but more robust, weighing 16 ozs. The
file tread is wider and has more meat on it. 26″ and 27″ 30/-
INNER TUBES
CONSTRICTOR Non Blister. Guaranteed not to blister this tube is
made from a very hard rubber. Fitted with a French valve, it is recommended
for use with deep-welled Constrictor rims. 26″ or 27″ 8/-
TYRESAVERS
CARLTON. The Carlton Tyresaver is an
ingenious device which removes nails, glass, or
flints. As the wheel turns, the nail or flint comes
into contact with the Tyresaver and is pulled out
within a few seconds of its entry into the tyre,
before it is able to penetrate to the tube.
