The Roberts Cycles Handbuilt Bicycle Owners Club

They look pretty good in the flesh, I reckon anyway.

I think they look good on the website so don't know what to think now!

I think it was just the pink that put me off initially. Having seen them properly and on people, its quite nice really.

Some of my shots of the Roberts stand at Bespoked 2014:

I liked that orange track bike with the red panels quite a lot.

Aren't they're the same Roberts from last year Bespoked?

I think most of them were, there was a rollhoff equipped tourer that I hadn't seen before but I didn't take a photo.

The only bike I don't recall seeing is the orange track bike, but that's about it.

The pale-blue lightweight thing certainly looks familiar.

They do make a dank fine single speed frame.

Dat dank-ass bomb-ass

Just ordered a new road frame - really looking forward to the build as it will be my first bespoke. Currently riding a Colnago master which is lovely but just had my De Rosa trashed by some helpful twat who thought it was funny to take a hammer to the top tube whilst locked up outside a cafe in HAMPSTEAD.

well - after an age just got and have built up my Roberts frame, Was told by Chaz it would be a 12 week wait but finally took around 25 weeks BUT has been worth it. Chose the frame to be made from Columbus life tubing throughout - with stainless polished lugs and went for straight polished forks so had Reynolds 953 for them. Had a 6 degree slope put on the top tube to give a bit more stiffness - decked out with Fizik seatpost, saddle (antares) and stem, Campag Neutron wheelset and Centaur running gear

really pleased with finish and glad I went bespoke

changed colours a bit - put black bar tape on (fizik again) and black chainring bolts - looks better

Weird! Your radiators are on the outside of the house?

Conservatory - the explanation about that is in the CP thread too :)

Ah, don't I feel silly now. Nice bike by the way.

Since this thread was upped, here's my Roberts I built for last years L'eroica italy.

Im pretty happy with the build, just needs correct campag seatpost and I'd like to have a supercorsa instead of the brooks

Would be amazing if they had a tandem frame come up! I'd view that as a sign.

When purchased, the old fellow I bought the bicycle from said it was a 1968 Charles Roberts. Does anyone here know if this is likely, or not? Thanks.

Here's my Roberts
A 1982 just had a re spray by the good folk at colour text and rebuild with The help of Oundle bike fix
