<< O.K. it's too cold to ride my Lambert; so I'm browsing on eBay for anything "interesting" and what do my wondering eyes see, but a "Lambert 2003 Showbike" frame!! I, in my ignorance, thought there was no more Lambert bike company. Anybody out there got any information on this! >>
This is a new (maybe a year old) effort... Someone has obviously either bought or found abandoned the old Lambert name. Kind of an interesting choice of names to adopt as Lambert did not have a totally unblemished reputation. The Lambert people have expressed an interest in taking a booth at the Cirque this spring so we will be able to meet and greet them..
Here's the description in the auction with comments:
<< 2003 Lambert MK2 Competition bicycle frame. Built for the 2003 Interbike Trade Show held in Las Vegas Nevada. >>
I missed seeing this bike frame at the show.. Did anyone else who went to Interbike see it?
<< ..... As with all Lambert MK2 bicycle frames this frame is constructed in England with Reynolds 531 double butted tubes and fork stays. >>
How much do you want to bet that this is the only Lambert MK2? Ha! Or maybe just a few thus far.. Maybe Joe can tell us how many he has painted.. No matter, they are starting anew so my best wishes to them.
