Can anyone update me on what has happened with Spondon?

From what I gather, one of the partners recently passed away, and the other has retired, and Norton now own the company?

Are they still manufacturing frame kits?

Cheers,
Mick.

What a tosser! It would be a sad day if that's correct. Why would he do that? :/

But all is not totally lost...

I've always wanted to build one, and I may have a chance to acquire just the right motor wink For me anyway.

So the Real Spondon = GIA Engineering ?
Looks that way doesn't it ?
