WORTHY RACING SHORTS

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

SHORTS—TOURING
CRODONI PATTERNED 55% Terylene 45% Wool
Fashioned from a Bluish shade of Dark Grey with a neat
pattern. This material is very light to wear but so hard
wearing that no double seat is required. The Continental
‘flair’ for smart sports wear is demonstrated by the
interesting and ‘different’ waist detail shown. The waist
is closed by a single inside button but a ‘French-bearer’
takes the strain away from the deeply inset zip fly. The

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 fasioned 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 … 44/3
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. The one-piece sole is cut
from selected leather and carries a light full heel. Long
close lacing through Continental style triangular eyelets
enhances the appearance of a good class shoe … 43/3
[Folio 18.]
[Two drawings of low cycling shoes, the Gran Sport with diagonal stitching rows over the instep and the Record with a reinforced toe and heel.]
— Page 21 —
RENOWN
Sizes 3–12
A well shaped and proportioned shoe with the back curved
in for good ‘heel-grip’ in the Continental fashion. The
black upper is offset by neat white stitching and eyelets.
A tough black Viklite sole carries a full light heel of the
same material. Identified by the name ‘Silver-stamped’ on
to the slightly extended tongue … 39/3
GRAND
TOUR
Sizes 5–12
This really well shaped full chrome black upper is neatly
finished at the ankle with tan trimming. Laced well down
the slender toe strapping and fitted with a large curved
pedal patch. Cork lined, the special ‘resin’ sole is deeply
channelled and stitched with a hot waxed thread process.
N.B. Do not use with ‘long’ shoe plates … 33/11
ROUGHSTUFF
Sizes 5–12
A utility shoe with narrow sewn welt that will fit into a
pedal and toe clip. Tan full chrome upper finished in
Scotch grain. The tongue is webbed so that wet cannot
penetrate lace holes or front opening. Tough leather sole.
Viklite capped heel … 59/9

CRODONI RACING SHOES
SEE ALSO CENTRE PAGES FOR DETAILS OF
THE NEW FULLY LINED WINTER BOOTEE.
“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 ½ size.
(e.g. 8″, 8½” equals 43 m.) … 61/6
“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 become
‘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 eliminates foot
fatigue over the longer distances. Sizes as ‘Veloce’ 73/-
[Folio 20.]
[Two photographs of black perforated racing shoes without heels, the Veloce pursuit shoe above the Giro road shoe.]
— Page 23 —
Both of these models have extra detail 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 ½ 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 … 66/9
“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 … 77/-
HORSESHOE HEELS. Easily fitted with adhesive by your
repairer to the Kangaroo or Veloce flat soles … 1/6

CRODONI RACING SHOES
“CORSA”
CLUB
SHOE

proved popular with everybody. Handbuilt by some of the
finest craftsmen in Italy, the ‘Corsa’ has the obvious ‘class’
of all Crodoni products. Shaped on the same last as the
‘Veloce’ this all-black shoe has a full chrome upper and full
length leather sole fitted with a light heel. A close rolled
edge and tiny lace holes give a really neat finish. No stiffener
is fitted under the instep as on the other models, so a shoe-
plate should be used. In metric sizes, state your normal
English size when ordering … 47/11

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 12/6
SIDE PULL ‘Sport’ Q/Release
A really neat brake with slim stirrup fitting closely round the mudguard. Arms well extended to the cable clamps ensure maximum leverage is obtained. The patent quick release fits either side of the arm allowing more movement and less chance of dirt or corrosion making operation ‘sticky’. Fitted with soft white brake blocks, ribbed for wet weather gripping. Hooded lever as above with white rubbers.
Tremendous value at only … 35/-
LEVER HOODS. As shown on lever above in either soft brown translucent or white rubber … pair 7/6
LEVER ADJUSTER RUBBER. Small black conical shaped pair 9d.

G.B. BRAKES
COUREUR ’66’ Centre-pull
This popular symmetric action brake is shown from the rear view to illustrate the new backplate, which is of stronger section than before, and fitted with two single coil springs operating independently on the stirrup arms. Enclosed Nylon bearings ensure that all working parts function smoothly and silently. Unusually rigid cable hangers at head and seat eliminate any springiness in the action. Supplied with:
Superhood Rapide Levers (illustrated) which have a Nylon quick release thumb slide housed between the lever and hood. The spring loaded slide returns automatically, when the brake is next applied, so there is no chance of poor braking after a wheel change … 60/-
With Superhood Plus Lever (non Q/R) 57/-
With New Superhood lever (no adj.) 55/6
SYNCHRON
This brake represents a new approach to the design problems of efficient calipers. The side anchored cable is the only link with conventional side-pull practice, every feature of the action being symmetric. Two separate stirrup pivots are mounted on a common backplate, the shoes being held ‘off’ by a single spring sliding on Nylon rollers when in action. Latest models have a cranked arm for extra cable movement. Supplied with:
New Quick Release Continental levers as illustrated opposite, operates on the ‘Rapide’ system with neat stud … 49/6
With Superhood Rapide levers … 49/6
With Arret finger grooved levers … 45/6

MAFAC BRAKES
TOP 63. The latest of a series of centre-pull
brakes introduced by this famous French
concern. Developed from the earlier ‘Tiger’
this has the main carrying arm formed by
two mouldings which are bolted together and
to the frame via curved slots. One arm slides
into the other, allowing the stirrup to be
‘opened’ and supplies the vertical adjust-
ment needed to align blocks with the rim.
There is no up or down movement on the
blocks themselves but the angle may be
altered so the blocks meet the rim squarely.
Complete with hooded levers, rubbers and
adjusters … 75/-
RACER
This model continues unchanged and was
the first of the range to adapt the now
popular cantilever action from a brazed-on
brake to bolt-on types. The arms are
independently sprung and are pivoted on
bronze bushes fixed to a backplate which
clamps to the cycle. Supplied with hooded
levers but without rubbers or adjusters (see
below) … 59/9
DRIVER. A brazed-on model taking the place of the earlier Criterium.
Actual operation is the same as the others but the pivots are in the form
of pegs brazed onto the cycle frame. Extremely simple, the short forged
arms, with brake block clamps as the Top 63, are very rigid and efficient.
Supplied with bare cables and hooded levers less rubbers and
adjusters … 52/6
CRITERIUM TANDEM. A brazed-on model similar to the above but
with double plate arms extended to give greater power to the longer blocks
employed. Hooded levers less rubbers … 61/6
LEVERS. Alloy hooded ‘Professional’ each 9/4
Rubber hood with adjuster, fits on the front of lever.

CAMPAGNOLO CHAINSETS
Without doubt the finest chainset ever produced
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 5mm. Allen key and peg
spanner. 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 3/16″ or 1/4″ balls.

famous French firm employs a
parallelogram action via strong
pressed plates with adjustable
pivots. The action is mounted
in a chrome plated arm of stiff
‘U’ section. A double roller
cage, with vertical as well as
lateral movement, ensures a
good chain-wrap that will allow

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 ratios
with a difference of 16-18 teeth.
1963 proved once again that Campagnolo gears are the best
available for competition work. A tremendously successful
season was capped by Jacques Anquetil winning the Tour de
France and Best-all-rounder title and Benoni Beheyt the World
Professional Road crown.

MEDAL
TUBULARS
In a constantly changing and competitive field the name D’Alessandro
stands like a rock—new names come and go, but for real quality there
is no better ‘marque’. The tubulars listed below represent real value
because they offer reliability and a tyre that lets you down in an im-
portant race is not cheap even if given away. That is why these tyres
are fitted as standard equipment by our Amateur International Teams
and by many of the top Professionals when World Championship titles
are at stake.—You cannot do better!
SILK IMPERFORABILE 7¾ 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 7¾ ozs., suitable for races at any
distance. SPECIFY SILK FOR SHEER SPEED … 66/4
IMPERFORABILE 9¾ 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 … 59/8
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 … 55/-
N.B.—The above three types can be supplied either in
File (illustrated) or Fine Ribbed pattern treads.

CRITERIUM 8½ 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 con-
trast 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 57/6
PISTA Cotone
LEGERE 7¼ ozs. (195 grams.)
A lightweight tyre with smooth band,
matt impression, tread on a narrow
pocket of first class cotton fabric.

for Pursuits, general trackwork and
fast 25-mile events … 48/8
PISTA Cotone
EXTRA LEGERE 5½ 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 … 51/4
SPECIALISSIMO 11 ozs.

liveliness of this general purpose tubular.
With rubber base tape, excellent value
at … 29/11
CYCLO CROSS 12½ 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 … 39/8
WORTHY 15½ 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

CANETTI BOYAUX
OF PARIS
We are pleased to introduce into this country some of the well known French tyres produced by the long established Parisienne firm of Canetti. Of basically similar design to all good tubulars these tyres may be recognised by ‘different’ tread designs. The extremely good value they offer is readily apparent when ‘quality’ tyres of similar weights are compared.
IMPERFORABILE 9½ ozs.
Employing the now generally appreciated technique, of fitting an amber band of ‘elastic’ rubber between the black tread and canvas breaker strip, for maximum puncture resistance. Care should be taken not to over inflate tyres of this type, the resilience of the amber strip can always be felt and the fabric will be strained before the tyre is ‘board-hard’. A top quality pocket is balanced to the tread weight and a very light tube fitted. Rubberised base tape … 54/8
SPORT SPECIALISSIMO 11 ozs.
A good class tyre with the same tread pattern as those illustrated except that greater prominence is given to the centre band of fine parallel ribs. Vulcanised to a first class fabric, enclosing a pure rubber tube, this tubular is fast and reliable. Rubberised tape … 36/4
CRITERIUM 7¼ ozs.
An extremely light tubular with a ‘road’ tread of fast narrow ribs with diamond side grip for fast cornering. Most tyres at this weight are fitted with a smooth band for track only, but for short time trials, over good clean roads, this tub, will give you that extra edge when really fit. Top quality throughout, made to improve your ’25’ time 53/8
[Folio 85.]
[Two drawings of tubular tires showing the tread and amber band, one labeled “TIPO IMPERFORABILE SUPER COURSE” and one labeled “CRITERIUM SUPER COURSE”.]

CANETTI TUBULARS
SUPER STRADA 12½ ozs.
A popular weight tyre with a vulcanised tread of unusual pattern designed for ‘circuit’ and round-the-houses ‘Kermese’ events. Fast and steady on the straight, a centre band of small raised diamonds is flanked by two lines of tread giving an open ‘arrow-head’ effect which bites into the corners imparting the sort of confidence that wins. A good quality latex covered fabric and comparatively light tube keep down the weight and add the extra touch of speed. Rubberised base tape … 27/8

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

“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.

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 … 38/-
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. 27″ only … 8/6
FITTING COVERS. Do not use levers for fitting. Inflate tube enough to remove wrinkles and fit valve loosely in hole. Place tyre over tube and fit one side. Start opposite valve and work outwards. hold tyre taut and seat edge deep into well of rim. Enough ‘slack’ will be left to push over rim at valve using thumbs only. Seat valve correctly and tighten. Inflate to half pressure and check ‘fitting’ line with edge of rim. Ease tyre until wires are seated all round. Inflate hard and keep hard when in use.
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.
