I have for sale my Walvale made by Norman Roberts. Frame and forks only (Tange headset incl.)
Here's what I could find about him:
"I think also Norman Roberts, Jim Soens mechanic, deserves a mention. Norman was team mechanic on the Tour l'Avenir as well as Peace Race. Though Norman considers his crowning glory was building the frame Bill Nickson used to win the Milk Race. As well as frames for other great riders."
About the frame:
531c
Top tube ctc 56cm
Seat Tube ctc 58cm
internal cabling on top tube
cut out BB.
There are a few blemishes on the paint here and there and one miniscule ding on top tube, I tried to take photo.
Really light and rides great, then again I would say that - but really though.
