British motorcycle brand Triumph is gearing up to launch a retro vinyl music record and a turntable inspired by the Triumph Street Cup 900 cc café racer. As the bikemaker says, the vinyl album features 10 up-and-coming British rock bands. However, both the vinyl album and the turntable come as limited edition. Only two units of the turntable have been built and the Vinyl album is available in a limited number of 500 units only.
The turntable has been designed by British company Rega and it sports a line drawing of the Street Cup and the Yellow paint has been taken straight from the café racer, which certainly enhance the exclusivity of the turntable. It also comes with a glass platter and a mat printed with Street Cup wheel design. As the British brand says, the turntables get hand-assembled precision built RB110 tonearm focusing on the vinyl enthusiasts.
