I know that the chances of anyone seeing this so long after the post but...... To answer the empson bike frames ....
My dad and his two brothers made them my family are top riders and my cousin Gary empson holds the world recold for I think it's 21 miles time trial... All my family race my dad was a pattern maker at a steal works in Lynn called Cooper roller bearing along with my uncle's. They hand built the frames and most had campagnola parts ... If that's how it's spelt. Others ran shimano and so on .. I never got in to raceing my self .. but they are well made and I have seen one on eBay make good money .. I my self don't own one .. my dad has a red one with all campagnola parts on and the rims are from the olympic bike from 1978 I think was the year ... Yet he says he will cut it up and melt it down as it was his bike and his bike only ... Strange I know....
If some how you can contact my I'm intrested in the empson bike you posted ages ago ... It's my family that made the bikes. Regards Oliver empson
