The brief for this build was to create a stunning Torker classic chrome with Torker signature colourway black and gold parts, while keeping an eye on the budget. This new Torker LP, looks like it came out of 1981, but it has a much longer toptube and tall bars, making it a joy to ride - you could even race it!

44 years later, Torker is back and we took the cues for the original LP to build a updated version based on the new LP Race frameset, with the iconic classic twin toptube and round-hole gusset - upgraded with modern touches to make the bike easier to ride - like a V-brake (that actually brakes), a clamp-on 1 1/8" threadless fork system (that stays tight) and a long Pro XXL 21.75" toptube (so at 50 you can actually ride it).
