For Sale: Roberts Lo Pro TT frameset

Posted on
  • After hoarding it for two years it is time to admit that I will never ride this bike.

    It is a genuine Roberts made from Reynolds 531 speedstream aerodynamic tubing (check out the bb lug). Think it was a TT bike but sadly the mech hanger has been cut off. Internal routing for rear brake cable, 130mm rear dropout width. Original decals have been removed (from beneath the laquer?) and Roberts ones stuck on top. Some rust worms and damage to paint work but still looks amazing.

    The seat post had some damage when I acquired the frame. This has been welded and whilst not the neatest job it has responded well to some elbow grease and could undoubtedly benefit from more.

    Seat tube 555 c2c, 570 c2t, top tube 580 c2c and approximately 560mm effective horizontal,
    head tube 70mm.

    Not sure on pricing as its not a proper track frame. how about £220 for frame fork headset and seat post? Will donate if it sells. thanks

  • Photo looking down the seat tube to show the aero tubing used on the seat and down tubes. seat stays are also aero.

  • Pretty fresh, considering the puppies. So you use a normal seatpin or there's an ovoid one that comes with it?

  • It comes with a teardrop / aero profile seat post to match the shape of the seat tube. Similar to a columbus air tubeset I believe. Not sure which tubeset came first but one would appear to be pretty much copying the other.

  • Frame is sold. Thank you Max. Hope you get more use out of it than I did. I have also donated.
