**SOLD** - Chas Roberts, complete bike £350 ono - Reynolds 653, 55cm

I have a Roberts bought through the forum, from @sacredhart, a while back and renovated.
Original thread on rebuild here:
https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/206627/?offset=250

It's only seen gentle, summer use since and I've swapped a few bits from the original build (Shimano 105 5800) to some SRAM stuff, as I just thought it looked nicer.
Now it's a mix of SRAM Red 10 speed (chainset & brifters), Apex front and rear derailleurs (to fit bigger cassette, which is a 10spd Dura Ace). I left the 105 brakes on as they're really good.

It has a few, very small, bits of missing paint (Mario!) but it's in otherwise mint condition.
Brand new chain, BB and all cables.

Much as I've loved having it, it really is a little small for me and I just got something Italian in my size...
I hope I've priced it so you peeps won't make me split it as I'd really much rather not.

Collection from Hither Green/New Cross please

Pictures! Sorry...

TBH this strikes me as the kind of bike to use as an example to show when people want £300 for their random shit bike, when this is the kind of thing you get for £350 round here. Lovely frame finished nicely! GLWS.

Looks great, GLWS.

I don't need another bike..........

It's a ridiculous bargain, for sure.

So how much are we saying for the colnago?

Haha, NO! :-)

Can't do today or tomorrow I'm afraid.
Available from Monday.

Cheers,

For those asking, yes, I'm in London, south east (the proper bit;-)

Looks great, another one I regret selling! GLWS!

Quite possibly forum bargain of the week??

the proper bit

Truth!

Dibs cassette if split

Ye got mail

Absolute Bargain. If only you'd listed it two months ago, I'd have bitten your hand off. Along with your arm and most of your torso as well, probably. GLWS, not that you'll need it at that price.

Is it 55cms c-to-c or c-to-t?

And what is the ETT pls?

Would be very interested in coming and having a look at it next week

That’s a bargainous bargain. Sorely tempted - the right size for me too - eek

same rear brake routing as your bott?

I lusted over this when Hilary had it
