Hello all and listen up!
I am selling my Chas Roberts Low profile Time Trial Frame with fork and parts. Now here comes the schpeel.
It is a metallic purple, hand-built from lightweight Reynolds 653 tubing and is of part lugged, part fillet brazed construction. It takes a 700c rear wheel and a 650/26" front wheel. The frame and fork are in very good condition.
My chain did come off once wrapping itself around the bottom bracket (photo supplied) chipping some paintwork. Nothing serious! there are a couple of tiny storage marks, other than that it's 'almost' perfect.
According to a fellow LFGSS member allow me to quote, "the frame was custom built for someone who's height is 5'11. It's 'Micro' geometry - so it has a short seat-tube and is designed for use with a long seat post. Frame sizing is; 56cm top tube (CTC) / and 45cm Seat tube (CTC).
I am 5'11 hence the purchase 4 months ago, however the frame IS too small for me. Hence the reluctant sale. I would then add that this bike would suit someone 5'7 to 5'9.
The rear spacing is 130mm with Ritchey Vertical dropouts. Front spacing is 100mm and it takes a 27.2mm seat post and a standard quill stem. Bottom bracket threading is of course English.
Included in the sale are the following parts:
-Campagnolo Xenon brake which came with Shimano 600 pads (new 600 pads thrown in for free)
-Cinelli Milano stem
-Cinelli Champion Del Mundo bars with fizik bar tape
-Stronglight 1" Threaded Headset
-26" front Vili-Vili clincher rim on a Formula high flange track hub, new
black spokes and nipples and specialized tyre
-700c rear Ambrosio rim on a System Ex hub and Panaracer clincher tyre
-A Long 27.2mm Silver Kalloy Seat Post
-Turbomatic 4 saddle
-Shimano UN54 Bottom Bracket
-Shimano custom cranks
-Shimano 600 pedals with cages and worn out christophe straps
-Shimano Dura ace 54 tooth chain ring
-KMC chain
-Miche 18 tooth sprocket
-Shimano Dura ace lock ring
-Rear reflector
I stripped down the whole bike 1 week ago, degreasing, cleaning and re-greasing everything apart from the hubs. I replaced the brake cable but have left the worn down pads (ready to be replaced by you be it Shimano or Campagnolo)
I don't want to split any of the above.
£400. Now gives me your monies.
