Title: Moulton Preservation
Post by: Socks on 18 February, 2022, 11:10:38 am
Sad news on the Moulton f-frame group today.  Michael Woolf, who ran Moulton Preservation, has passed away.  The preservation service enabled MBC club members to obtain some key suspension parts, and repair early rear forks which were a weak point in the first version of the f-frame.  Services that weren't available anywhere else.  I restored / renovated several f-frames using this service, always with a courteous and helpful response from Michael.

That is a pity but not entirely surprising.

Michael was a lovely fellow. Very passionate about his interests but quirky, like many Moultoneers but he took it a level beyond most. He created a whole ecosystem around getting the ‘60s and ‘70s Moultons back on the road when everybody was just letting them moulder away. I hope Zoe is doing ok.
