Anyone got a youngs frame?

As in the title, got a customer with a youngs frame he want's to restore. Sods law theres no head decal anymore and we sold the youngs frame we had a month or so ago. Just wanted a piccy of the head transfer/badge if anybody rides one.

not the head tube I know but probably similar.

Oooh oooh I saw a piece of random waste tube in a pile of rubbish outside Colourtech yesterday. It was green. It has the Youngs decal above on it, without scratches! Ask Paul aka 50/14 to pick it up, he'll be going to Colourtech any day now to collect something. It was outside the workshop, in a small pile of tubes on an old bench, there was a yellow jackson tube there too (with the nice old Jackson block decals).

Here you go,

Just found this thread whilst researching the Young’s frame I was given recently. Hope this is helpful and not too late. Any info on Young’s would be greatly appreciated.

I had Matt Seaton's old Young's track frame for a while...I believe Youngs still exists (West Wickham) I've ridden past a few times, think it may be the same.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

Just spotted this thread. I'm still on the slow process of getting the red Youngs frame above restored (now as a present for my dad, who's been looking wistfully at all we young whippersnappers with our fixed-wheel contraptions).

The guy at Lloyds has some Youngs transfers, but last time I spoke to him he only had the different head decal, which is a circle with four segments - two orange and two black.

I don't suppose any of you managed to track down any copies of the decal above? Did the one Skully spotted get retrieved? OR does anyone possess the ninja skillz to get a proper replica made up?

Hi there,

I know this is an old thread but for the attention of anyone else looking for Youngs Decals and Grandini Decals I am the only one to have the originals.

How may you ask.?

Afternoon ! following an old thread: I am refurbishing my Youngs bought from West wickham shop in the early 90's do you have acess to any of the more modern decals with "youngs of west wickham" on the head tube? I called the shop but apparently it has now closed?

i have a youngs grandini but no badge :/

Was listed by the 74 y.o. ex-racer's son (fail, son...)
Spoke to the old chap earlier and he said the paint was refurbed by Youngs, as I remarked that it looked like an early 80's bike.
Tubs, an all... Headtube is hopefully indicating 21", 22" max, or else it's too big. We'll see, tomorrow.
Beer + Ebay = ? :)
