Hello all! Although new to Viscount bikes, I'm well versed in 'vintage' steel and absolutely love the classic steel lightweights that VL bikes are a part of.
Among the many questions I have regarding these bikes, it's the tubing that vexes me the most. What I'd like to know is, who manufactured (or rebadged) the tubing for Viscount Lambert bikes from the early 80's era? Would Trusty have been involved in ordering the tubing to spec from a UK manufacturer or from abroad as was the case with some of the components? Given the proprietary nature of the VL parts and the advancing age of the engineers and administrative staff, will this always remain a mystery? Simply looking to quell my curiosity and cheers for your commitment to this great marquee!
