    Nice wee bit of British frame building history in this '76 Bob Jackson frame here. It's too beautiful for me, I'm petrified of leaving it anywhere or damaging it. Non-original paint, resprayed at some point at Bob Jackson in dark green with white / gold details. Some paints chips but by my (retro mtb) standards the paint is in good condition. No dents. Reynolds 531.

    700c
    ST 54cm CTT
    TT 55cm CTC
    126mm rear spacing
    V v minimal use silver Tange headset with sealed bearings and a sealed shimano bb are included at this price or I’ll keep them and give you a discount,
    It's in hackney for viewing, more photos below.

  • Nice looking frame.

    A couple Qs

    1. Is it 700c or 27"
    2. Do the droppouts have the little screws? to set the position?
    3. What is the mark to the left of the BOB on the logo where a braze on was/is?
  • Beaut, any pics of it built up?

  • All very good questions thanks.

    It's 700c.

    They dropouts have holes for those little screws, but there aren't any in there.

    That mark is the most significant paint chip. The frame has very few braze ons and needs the clip on type. I have run it fixed so it looks very clean because of that. So I guess a past clip on gear shifter made that mark in the paint. The paint has been touched up a little in that area.

  • Too good for a shopping trolley...

  • You sure that's not a dent on downtube (second pic), it does look to me so...I'd run a finger on that to confirm
