Circa 1956 L’Eroica Viking 531 Tour of Britain road race racing bike – barn
find!
I’m 99% sure
this is a Viking Tour of Britian from around 1956 – the frame number is 731
(Viking used sequential frame numbers for this model) and looking at the frame
number register and photo gallery on the Classic Viking Cycles website (and
talking to a couple of knowledgeable friends) I’m 99% sure it’s right. The
frame has been hand painted at some time and the decals and head badge aren’t
correct.
The correct
decals are available form Henry Lloyd Cycles.

This is a
barn find and is therefore spares and repairs. It needs everything doing to it
but the frame, wheels, and even the tyres seem OK. The handlebar and stem are
GB and are very nice. The saddle is knackered.
If you’re
looking for a restoration project then this is worth doing.
Size guide: 23 ½” (frame measured centre
to top).
Collection only: 5 miles from J18 M25 or I can meet
you at Chalfont and Latimer station (Metropolitan or Chiltern line).
I would prefer cash on collection, no collection by courier, please email any
questions, thanks for looking
Current Price: £70.00
