Hi all! Found this ad which is somewhat local to me. The components are kind of odd, especially the bar end shifters and cranks. Can anyone see any other discrepancies on this Lambert? I can't really find too much info on year, and component grouping for these Lamberts. Thanks! santafe.craigslist.org/bik/5095705865.html

Looks like maybe low flange hubs and side pull brakes.... maybe black? Black cage pedals? If its fitted with what appears be be Campy clone (Sugino, Sakae?) cranks, must not be the weird square non-tapered axle. Pretty sure thats a death fork. I thinking not much is original except bars & stem and frame & forks.

Those derailleurs look to be a SunTour upgrade when the owner went to the bar end shifters. I don't know much about Lamberts either, but if this one is in decent condition and you like it...

I know this may sound counter to all wisdom but I have seen quite a number of early US Viscount Aerospace with bar end shifters that came on the bike from new. Not sure if this could be the case on this one, but I don't think it can be discounted

Another source has said that it could be a MKM Lambert (Mason, Kitching, Metcalf) with the shifters, sugino cranks, and DR's being stock.
I really wish it had the decals haha
