1965 Viking childs version of one of their well regarded full size racing bikes –
Viking had a professional racing team in the 1950’s and 60’s and made very good hand-built lightweight frames – please do not confuse with modern bicycles with a similar name!
Extremely rare and possibly unique – the previous owner purchased it for his grandson direct from VIKING around 1959 – been in my own collection for many years and has been ridden by my own children
Unrestored condition – slight rust on chrome – frame with light use scratches etc
Size: Seat 18-1/2″ inches x top 19-1/2″ inches
Apologies – the photos don’t do it justice!
Great components:
Alloy Milremo hubs in Shurmann 24″ chrome rims (will need new tyres)
GB Alloy bars and stem
Weinmann type 730 alloy brake callipers
Huret Svelto 5 speed derailier gear
Nicklin cottered cranks
Ideale 27 leather saddle ( v. rare child size!)
