The Lincln Imp wasn't available in 1955, I think '57 was the first year. Just got the frame number from the seller and it is a 1958 machine. Nigel Land North Lincs UK

That is a really nice Lincoln Imp frame but isn't the 531 TI tubing sticker later than 1955? Does anybody know when they were introduced?

Proof that the British will always best in lightweights if by simple virtu e of finish and names... this being named after the famed stone imp in the Angel Choir in Lincoln Cathedral. Imagine that!
Alas, again, not my size...
