• For Sale:

    My lovely Bob Jackson build, I haven't used this bike since November and it's unlikely I will... But I'm not desperate to sell so I'm asking for offers around £1700 - send me your offer. Can be cheaper with a change of levers/rear derailleur/cassette to Potenza.

    This is an incredibly nice riding bike, super stiff for steel but so comfortable too, I've ridden a lot of bikes with a similar build with different frame materials and this truly is a wonder to ride. It's also very light, steel frame, aluminium wheels - still under 7kg.

    Specification:
    -Bob Jackson Olympus 631 frame, 54x54
    -Columbus minimal? forks
    -Chris King Gold headset - the carbon bung is a carbon ti one.
    -Wheels: Campagnolo Shamal's - these are the 2008 spec hubs and spokes, I rebuilt them onto new (2019) rims, this was with new nipples and new bearings where needed, they spin beautifully, the rims literally have no wear on at all. Tyres are the lovely Specialized s-works Turbo cottons in 26mm.
    -Brakes: Sram Red aerolink.
    -Drivetrain: FSA SL-k Light chainset(50-34), campag chorus chain, campag chorus 11-29 cassette, record 11s FD and RD.
    -Record 11s shifters
    -Profile Bars 40cm
    -Deda Superleggero seatpost
    -Ergon carbon mens saddle (med)
    -Stem - I have multiple lengths to suit you.
    -Lizard skin bar tape.
    No pedals or bottle cages.

    Any questions please ask.

    Preferable collection from SE London, New Cross or Lee.

  • Nice looking bike. But I don’t believe it is under 7 kg

  • I do.

    Lots of nice stuff on a 1.9kg frame

  • My old 853 Genesis, with Enve forks, SRAM Red, carbon finishing kit and a set of 1.4kg Heds was just sub 8kg. I’m intrigued how an extra kg could be saved.

    Nice bike, though!

  • Nice and that number on the wall telling you the bike size is a nice touch too :)

    I think the rule here is to add a price though. GLWS

  • Lovely... especially like the metal headbadge that not alot of people go for unfortunately. GLWS.

  • Lovely looking thing.

  • Have added a price. Open to offers.

  • Any takers for £1500? Otherwise will move elsewhere. Cheers!

  • Moved elsewhere.
