• After much um-ing and ah-ing and one nearly attempt, I decided to finally sell my Lovely 60's Viking Road Track, as it's too big.I build this up about 4 years ago and have loved it since, but it is time to let it go to a new Home.

    A few scratches to lacquer but noting series. One of the mudguard eyes has a broken of screw stuck in it but I'm sure it could be got out with some patience (i can try if you like ) or failing that carefully drilled out.

    I looking for £410 pounds minus the saddle. (I have a black non period brooks you can have for an additional £15 pounds if you like)

    Spec.

    Early 60's Viking Road Track Frame (probably World Series opt Twenty -Five model.) Beautiful Nervex lugs and Round Section Track Forks. Reynolds 531 butted throughout. 22.1/2 inches c-t-c seat tube x 22 1/2 inch c-t-c top tube. (57x57 approx.) Clear lacquered an re-threaded by armourtex, with new reproduction decals.

    TA Pista Bottom bracket axle and cups with TA 170mm Cyclotourist crankset and chain ring (48 tooth). The cranks aren't exactly a set, but they look the same and you cannot tell. All circa 60's.

    Miche Pista Pedals with cristophe toeclips. I will provide straps, (not the ones in the photo). (Alternately I have some condor double clips and straps you can have instead)

    Campagnolo Record seat post. Two Bolt version.

    Period GB Hindunimiun alloy 3 inch (8cm) stem on 50's/60's steel bars. These need a shim.

    Front only 60's Mafac 'Racer' centre pull brake with 60's Mafac lever. with cable guide. (I'll try put one in pif you like.)

    Modern Tange threaded 1 inch headset.

    Front Wheel - Weinmann Alesa 27x 1 1/4 rim on 60's Exceltoo high flange hub. Panaracer Palesa PT tyres.

    Rear Wheel - Super Champion blue label 36 hole clincher rim 27x 1 1/4 on Airlite high flange 36 hole single fixed hub. Has lovely red painted inner drillings. Comes with 17 (or 16) tooth cog.-your choice. Panaracer Palesa PT tyre.

    A lovely period road/track bike, I shall be sad too see it go. Taken me on several longish tours. Grab yourself a beautiful bit of vintage british steel.

    If you want to come see or pick it up at the weekend I'm based in East London-Upton Park-just pm me. Any questions, please ask.

    • Forgot to say. Pair of white bluemels mudguards can come with this free if you want them too.

  • OK, no interest, so Impatient saturday evening price drop to £430

  • I love it, following the thread. ;)

  • Btw what's the serial number?

  • Morning price drop bump. Now £410.

  • .

  • Still here and still too big so Back up for sale now with a chain just needs saddle. £410.
    If you don't want either stem and/or bars as they are shimmed price can be adjusted accordingly.

    I would consider splitting this if someone takes the frame.
    Also, needs re-bar taping as I unwound this to fit the shim.

  • Back up for Sale at £410.

  • £400?

  • Gone to Ebay again as still nothing Here. Thread closed.
