I may have an opportunity to get a Cliff Shrubb Lo Pro, no other details known at this time.
Any pros/cons or advice around this frame builder please.

I'm told my Geoffrey Butler track is a Cliff Shrubb built bike. I'm not a racing cyclist so I'd hesitate to say much about it technically except that it's very nicely built, good to ride, handles well and still going strong. I think it's probably late sixties or early seventies.

@SideshowBob - I have a Shrubb lo-pro in Reynolds 708 and its amazing, such good fun. Is the one you have to opp to buy road, what size wheels, etc? Any photos?

Would be interested to see

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
