For Sale: Roberts Track . Custom Taylor .Wound Up . Campag . SLR . Nitto . Rapha . WAC .

So, time to adjust the collection to my actual needs. As i'm bust up with a cold and a knackered back, I have a few days to sort through the Gubbins.

All items are in Cornwall, but I'm happy to post anywhere in the UK.

Dibs if you like, but PM's and Payment win Prizes.

Chas Roberts Track Frameset w/Black CK "2nut" 1" SV Headset - SOLD

built up

ST - 60cm ctc
TT - 57cm ctc

Cinelli Aero Bottom Bracket Shell. Columbus dropouts front and rear.
Standard rear spacing of 120mm.
27.2mm seatpost
English Thread BB

*Usual chips and scratches to paintwork (which could be touched up easily) totally straight, no dents, bumps or crashes.
bought from re-cycled here who in turn bought it from JD here, only right it should stay in the LFGSS Family.

As I'm spending more time in Cornwall, this is seeing more time hung up looking pretty (which it does) but deserves to be used on the track. It has a short wheelbase and it's quick and certainly doesn't belong on Cornish hills, or being threatened by a drill.*

wipes away the tear

Custom Fillet Brazed Taylor (us) Frame w/Black 1" CK Sotte Voce Ahead Headset, Wound Up Forks (alloy steerer) & Thomson Seatpost Collar - £400

built up

61cm tt

120mm rear spacing
27.2mm seatpost
Standard English Thread BB

*So, so nice! It came from Tilover and was custom made for a pro rider he knew in LA (where Taylor company is based) Great Fillet Brazing and a beautifully made frame, wish bone stays. Its been left raw and clear coated and is showing some areas of surface rust. Personally, i dont mind it, as it is only cosmetic but buyer might want to strip it and re-laquer, or paint it i guess.
There's a tiny bit a braze rolling round in the TT, which you'll notice if shaking, I haven't tried hard to get it out tbh. Also worth a mention is a ridge of lacquer where its built up on the underside of the toptube, again nothing but cosmetics and only noticable if you lift it up.
Can't tell you how much i love this frame, but realistically, it is a touch too long and low for my back with drops, otherwise it would go to my grave with me. *

Really nice frame.

Very nice stuff Ben.. Also selling the Mack wheelset?;) Very tempted by the "crabon" seatpost..

Why you selling all the track frames btw?

Very nice stuff Ben.. Also selling the Mack wheelset?;) Very tempted by the "crabon" seatpost..

Not yet, but you'll be first to know if I do ;)

Why you selling all the track frames btw?

Well, the Talyor is more relaxed and suited to general riding, but not quite right Geo for me. As for the Roberts, I am spending more time looking at it than riding it, which I am happy to do, but it's a sad life for a Track Frame. They need Tracks, right!? My life is split between work in LOndon and living in Cornwall and i can't see it getting the use it deserves, if i'm honest. Breaks my heart, but just need to focus on the next project.

If all goes to plan, i'll be buying a more suitable sized frame to replace the Taylor for my Fixed gear riding.

pm sent about roberts.. i can't belive it's on sale again!

I'd like WAC tshirt too with it please

Roberts is so. Nice.

dibs Campag pedals....pm'd

Dibs seatpost

Dibs the Veloce front mech! PM on the way.

Roberts is lush. Shame it's giant size :)

Major Taylor.
I would sellz the GT for you. :(

^loads of bikes swapping hands recently, i'll be selling two frames shortly :)

Love the Roberts

Balls - I need 1 1/8" Wound Ups for my new build.

Dib's and PM's sugino chainset, cheers

If you will need an owner for your njaa stem, I will happily become one, depending on the price.

Thanks for the interest folks.

Pm's replied to and will update thread as and when things are sold.

Roberts frame is sold, so the Nitto parts are available.

@1000archangels - would prefer to sell complete, but you'll have first refusal on the stem if it splits.

Also, regarding the Taylor. There's a bit of interest in the forks and the headset, so if someone is interested in just the frame, let me know.

Can't believe you're selling these! Roberts is sweet, and the Taylor is so nice but sooooo long.

Ok, everything that has Sold and been paid for has gone out 1st class today.

Things that don't have "SOLD" are still available.

Just to clear up for interested parties, the Frame buyer has first refusal on Wound Ups and Headset, but if splitting will work out as follows,

Frame w/Thomson collar - £250posted
CK 1" Headset - £55posted
1" Wound Up Forks (224mm alloy steerer) - £125posted

I'll contact people in order of PM's should that happen

Cheers!

that bar setup is sweet
