Nope, thought it looked bigger in the pics than a 56 but got told it definitely was a 56

either way, just me being bitter about loosing this beauty. I had a front 440 and a lovely set of Campag delta brakes to go on. Looks mean with black components.

i still feel bad about that to this day james1234 :( had a dream about the ellsworth the other night if im honest i did love that machine!

but thanks anyway - have tried to do the frame justice haha

New bars.

^ I enjoy that paintjob every time I see it.

What are the bars?

Spatr.

THEY ARE SPATR!

sorry...

These, 40cm

I should of put a Zaffiro on the back for the summer, riding midday in this heat and skidding has made the rubber go kind of flaky :/

New bars.

That colour is so nice! Didn't realise it was so fluoro!

Zaffiro over hardshell?
Never!

Picture isn't even edited :P

When i go to my shed at night the only thing i can see through the window is the frame, its literally the colour of a high-viz jacket.

Zaffiro over hardshell?
Never!

Well, i'm poor after all the shit i got, and i'm not trusting my Hardshell the way it looks now, so yeah, I will have to

zaffiro wouldn't last an afternoon. Buy a refuse in an ugly colour cheap

Made a trip to Jingle Jangle of this parish yesterday. Picked up a frame and a surprise 10spd Centaur group - looking forward to putting them together.

It's not really a Roberts, so it'll go with my Dave Russell that isn't a Dave Russell.

Oh look: A Russel that isn't a Roberts to go with a Russel that isn't a Russel that's the same colour as I want my Roberts that isn't a Rourke to be, to match my Roberts that is a Roberts.

Cleaned and changed the bar tape on a MBK Mirage I have at home.

MBK Mirage fully equipped in Campagnolo Mirage. A bit small but very nice to ride.

28c Zaffiro lasted me over 2 months, i got one for £5 from my lbs anyway

Finally stuck on some new wheels on my road bike, only Ribbles £65 r500 but I am so looking forward to having fresh braking surfaces. Been riding around for a year on scarily concave rear and a front wheel with a dent from being hit by a car!

Also installed a bodged shim recommended by EEI to stop DT shifter ghost shifting.

got to ask, whats going on with the bars, and especially the stem?

A French threaded bottom bracket arrived today to try on the Roberts. Turns out that I actually need a Swiss threaded one.

Swiss!!! :/

Almost got my everyday bike finished, kind of want to put some 28c gumwalls on though
