The vendor advises us that this Tribsa was restored by Helge Sahl of Fensmark in Denmark, but there is no paperwork for purchase or restoration. Constructed with a BSA twin swinging-arm frame and 1957 large bearing Triumph T100 engine, there are many quality components used in the construction. An AMC gearbox is utilised, together with slim Royal Enfield primary chaincases. For suspension there are Norton Roadholder front forks, with modern damper units for the rear. Ignition is by Lucas K2FC Competition Magneto; petrol tank is alloy, as are the mudguards. Carburetion is via Amal Monobloc, and the engine/gearbox plates are Dural. Wheel rims are steel, and the front hub is Bultaco.
It has not been used for some time and will require some re-commissioning prior to further use. The only documentation on file is a receipt for parts to Helge Sahl. Whilst the engine turns over, its mechanical condition is unknown and is sold strictly as viewed.
