Having read Sean Yates’ book and reading his fantastic accounts of his Emperor Sport frames that he used as a amateur I thought that I would stick a picture up of my 2013 re-sprayed EMP 77-166, one of two frames that Mick Coward built for me that I still ride. Now that I am older I have had Roberts replace the forks to allow mudguard clearance also adding mudguard eyes. I did 99% of my racing on that frame.
Really beautiful bike Ev
Great book and a fine bike. There’s still a few Emperor’s around, when I phoned up Argos in Bristol to discuss painting Mick’s bike earlier this year they had just finished respraying one.
