For Sale: Roberts 653 Low pro 7/8 speed unfinished

Hello,

I have an unfinished Roberts low pro possibly for sale, as I want to go back to fixed, so could be interested in a swap?

Currently have Roberts 653 (54cm C-T and 55cm C-C) low pro frame and columbus aero profile forks (front and rear 700c), Cinelli quill stem, Simplon titanium BB, Campy C Record Cranks with 55 or 54 chainring (running single up front), C Record 8 speed rear mech and rear shifter, C Record aero seat post, C Record headset, profile airwing bars, ITM TT brake levers, Selle Italia Gel Saddle. All in great condition.

Also comes with profile quill stem, sora calipers, a record front hub, laced to mavic rim and Hope rear screw on hub laced to mavic rim, 7 speed cassette (needs and 8 speed), complete with tyre, tubes and skewers, Chorus front mech.

All it needs to finish is 8 speed sprocket and chain, cabling and bar tape, then its ready go.

What sort of cash would this be worth, or what complete ready to ride fixie do you have to swap?

Cheers.

thats an amazing bike - if only it was bigger!

why dont you get a fixed hub and a tensioner and use it as a fixie?

You cant use a tensioner on a fixed setup. Unless you mean chain tug, which also wouldnt be possible on a vertical dropout.

yeah my bad

Don't turn this into a fixed-ie!

I am with Crispin Glover, dont think this one should be barstardised into a fixie, it would be wrong. Needs to be in its original 8 speed state, in my opinion, it will be awesome!

Two other piccies for you. Someone must have a nice complete fixie for a swap, or a bit of cash ;-)
