@nuke, i will keep you in mind for that
@dan the wheels aren't for sale
@jammy, that is true, but it was more than 350 and it wasn't with loads more stuff, rather a lot less.
I changed the saddle, tyres, stem, bars there was no lockring on it, the rear cog was 3/32 as well as the chainring and had to be changed. furthermore i took a massive risk as there was a discussion about the tubing. I got lucky and it turned out to be what i thought it is. I also took the bike to tour de ville and they expressed their opinion on what it is worth (more than what i am charging). On top of that if you search for robert frames on this forum you will find that the better ones (653, 731 and up) all went for £400 (frame and forks).
I am not selling to make a profit, i am selling because i recently bought a de rosa and 3 track bikes is a bit over the top for me. I really like the bike and if it doesn't sell i'll keep it.
I hope that is fair for everybody.
cheers
