BSA 3 speed

-
If anyone has a membership to the VCC and feels like doing a spot of research on the 1956 BSA... I would be very grateful.

VCC has a ‘57 BSA catalog. There is no mention of a Streamlight model in that catalogue, it appears they adopted the name Star Rider instead which carried on in the ‘59 catalogue.
What I found in the library doesn’t date the bike to either ‘56 or ‘57.

1957 was the year Raleigh bought the brand and started manufacturing them.
 
Were you able to locate a brake lever that is suitable? I have an orphan lever, but do not know if it will match.
