WORTHY RACING SHORTS
Worthy racing shorts are ‘all-British’ made from the best Continental designs. By far the most popular on the British market, they offer wonderful value. We suggest that you check the ‘Worthy’ label to be sure of obtaining the genuine article.
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 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 … 47/2
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 … 45/10
[Folio 18.]
[Two drawings of laced cycling shoes, the Gran Sport with diagonal stitching over the instep above the Record with a toe cap and red trim.]

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 … 36/6
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
“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.) … 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.]

CRODONI RACING SHOES
“CORSA” CLUB SHOE
Since its introduction (as a light ‘Club’ shoe) this has proved very popular. 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 shoeplate should be used. In metric sizes, state your normal English size when ordering
47/11
CORSA CAMPIONE
General details as above but with 3 rows of perforations in uppers for improved ventilation. Sizes as “Corsa” 55/6
WINTER “BOOTEE”
Beautifully shaped from a full chrome calf-side leather, with the upper extended to cover the ankle and the ‘throat’ shaped to allow full movement. Fully weather-proofed, the warm fleecy lining covers the whole inner sole and upper and even the tongue is lined. The strong Viklite waterproof sole carries a medium heel, completing an ideal shoe for general winter wear. Particularly suitable for standing about at cold club rooms or Cyclo-Cross events.
Half sizes from 5 to 12 … 85/-

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/-
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 … 57/6
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 … 67/6
LEVERS. Alloy hooded ‘Professional’ each 10/6
Rubber hood with adjuster, fits on the front of lever.

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 ailow 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 alloy stirrup fitting closely round the mudguard. Arms well extended to the cable clamps ensure maxi-mum 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/-
Q.R. SIDE PULL. Mod. 51 … 47/6
LEVER HOODS. As shown on lever above in either soft brown trans-lucent or white rubber … pair 7/6

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:
124A. Q.R. Levers. Offers unique cable release by simply depressing a stud, thus allowing the tension of the cable to draw the lever up inside the hood … 60/-
SUPERHOOD Levers. Stylish and functional, it provides excellent brake manipulation and hand grip comfort … 57/6
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 levers … 47/6
With Arret finger grooved levers … 45/6

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 5 mm. 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.
Double Set complete with bracket fittings (less the tool set). Ring sizes 44-52T (larger sizes extra, details listed opposite) … 240/-

CAMPAGNOLO GEARS
Again in 1964 the world’s leading riders relied on Campagnolo Jacques Anquetil won the Tour of Italy and his fifth T. de F. and no fewer than 10 champions at the “Worlds” used Campag including the first three to finish in the professional road race.
RECORD REAR GEAR
Operating on the same principles as the well proved Gran Sport, this model has improved chain-wrap and tension so that larger ratios may be accommodated.
Used by J. Anquetil during his fantastic 1963 season and by a host of top roadmen, including World Road Champion, B. Beheyt.
Suitable for 4, 5 or 6 speed blocks with a maximum range of 13–36T. A more powerful spring gives even tension to the offset roller cage.

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.

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.

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 … 74/6
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 … 69/6
N.B.-The preceeding three tyres can be supplied either in file (as illustrated
in silk imperforable) 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… 72/6
PISTA Cotone
LEGERE 7¼ ozs. (195 grams.)

matt impression, tread on a narrow
pocket of first class cotton fabric

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 65/6
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 49/6
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 … 49/6
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
base tape need little attention. A
side ribbing is provided to drive your dynamo. Use the Worthy for
touring at all times … 37/6

ALBERTO

CANETTI BOYAUX OF PARIS
IMPERFORABILE 9½ ozs.
Employing the now generally appre-
ciated technique, of fitting an amber
band of ‘elastic’ rubber between the
black tread and canvas breaker
strip, for maximum puncture re-
sistance. 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 … 62/-
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 … 58/9

Vulcanised to a first class fabric, enclosing a pure rubber tube, this
tubular is fast and reliable. Rubberised tape … 42/-
SUPER STRADA 12½ ozs.
A popular weight tyre with a vul-
canised 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 … 33/6
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.
