Found a 1951 Cyclone photo - mine is clearly a Cyclone with chrome options, including the fork crown. The chrome is borderline and I think I will just save the crown and dropouts (where it is v good), not the stays where it is a bit pitted. Rechroming is expensive and not good for frame life, but is easily painted over by an expert.
Drivetrain will be 3/32" because 42T rings are no longer cheap in 1/8". The AM rear hub for this project happens to be the same year as the frame*.
The project is basically to build a pre-derailleur massed start racing bike. The clubman is slightly too relaxed for that, although it is very fast with modern tyres.
*well, sort of. The shell is an alloy 1951 40h but the internals were NOS 1949. The 1949 shell is steel but is in reserve for when the alloy one cracks, which one day it surely will. The flanges are as thin as in the steel shells!
