On eBay. Despite the re-paint and some modern bits it could be a nice bike. I've never seen a 'porthole' triple chainset before. I thought they were all doubles, but perhaps some triples were made in Lambert days. Triples of any sort were rare in the early 1970s. pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=360981015977Edit: Has an alloy 'death fork' by the way, not a chromed steel one as the seller says.

Wow, I'd love that triple on my Aerospace Pro. I was thinking of looking for a smaller inner ring. This would be even better!
(an academic question as I am not buying this but would a triple throw all the chain line out if you kept the same spindle and bb config, and the Titlist front deraillieur?)

Don't think you could use the Titlist front mech,perhaps that's why there isn't one on the above bike. You should be able to build up a triple easily enough using TA/Stronglight parts using the existing outer ring. Cheers, Pete.

Of course, early Lamberts were fifteen speed (3x5) - like the gold one, but the rings look like standard TA types not portholes. I haven't yet managed to get the Lambert FD to shift across all three rings!
