• So unfortunately the sale fell through hence this frame, fork and headset combo is available again.
    A beautiful and rare Emperor track frame. Made from rare Ishiwata 015 steel so very light and has an amazing 'ping' to it.
    Forks are Reynolds Special Lightweight so pretty unique aswell.
    Good history behind it and definitely a very unique frame.
    Unfortunately has to go as I need a proper clearout and can't justify the amount of bikes/frames I have.

    It is currently with my bro in London so can be viewed there. I'm up this weekend so can also meet if anyone wants.
    Plenty of photos etc so please ask.
    Dibs and PM
    Can also be posted at extra cost.
    Thanks, Tom

    55.5cm square give or take a mm or two
    No dents, cracks, bends etc. Frame is structurally excellent.
    Please note paint is original (an amazing eggshell/baby blue) so it has scuffs, scratches, some touch ups and wear marks. Decals are all sound and the patina adds to the bike.
    Built 1979/80.
    Emperor cycle from Sutton. Built by ex pro riders Mick Coward and Tony Mills. Named after the rider 'The Emperor' Rik van Looy.
    Drilled and perforated fastback seatstays

    Reynolds 531 Special Lightweight forks
