Hi guys,

Not sure if anybody can help or not.... you may remember a few years back I managed to source a baby Viscount Sprint.

Well it's resto is underway but what I really need is either a supplier of decals... which I'm not hopeful of or a good hi-res image of a sprint top bar logo.

Could any of you guys or gals on here take a hi-res image and send across to me?

Thanks in advance

Rob

Hi Stella,

Can I pm or email you a very quick photo? Whats the easiest way to do it?

** got some photos done...will see if I can upload them to this post!

Kind Regards

Quick measurement from centre of BB to seat post is apprix 42cm/ 16.5in, top bar is 47cm/ 18.5 in.

Wheels look to be 20inches

Not sure if this helps at all?

What measurements would give the best indication?

I bought it back quite late yesterday and not had chance to have a proper look at it yet, but it appears to be a 5 speed.

Will try and get some images up soon, in it's current sorry state!!

I did have to make a small 'donation' to the tip, but I daresay this will have been pocketed!

I'm really curious to know if anybody knows anything about this bike at all? Not been able to find much online...

The bike is complete, but in a pretty sorry state so I'll try and get some images online soon!

Cheers

Rob

Hi guys,

My first post on here so be gentle!

I have been riding for the last year on a pretty modern bike and have previously restored cars as a hobby, so imagine the temptation when I visited our local tip to drop some household rubbish off and found a complete Viscount Sprint for a child.

When I pop back later I managed to get the bike in the boot and bring it home. It's in a sorry state, but does look complete.

I would be interested to find out more about this particular model...could anybody help?

Kind Regards

Rob
