Hi,
I am selling this after accepting that it’ll be a while before my 2 year old is able to ride it…
Really nicely put together as you’d expect from Charlie Roberts. Nice drilled lugs with filed tapers, drilled Campagnolo ends and BB shell. Most likely built in late ‘70s (frame number 517). I am not sure about the tubing used but the frame is very light and rides beautifully. The pictures show it with 25mm tyres, there’s plenty of clearance and it originally had 28mm tyres with P-clip mounted mudguards. The paint is a bit rough so it’s an ideal candidate for a respray, but I guess it could be treated to make it better. Correct decals are readily available from H Lloyd, should you need them. No dents, no cracks, everything is straight. 55cm seat tube ctc, 57cm top tube ctc, 13cm head tube. The wheels and headset are not included. I am happy to add a basic headset, Cinelli stem and bars, and some Universal brakes and levers to sweeten the deal if you’d like.
£140 collected from SE or central London, happy to post at cost.
Cheers -
Hello,
Selling these lovely cranks as I’ve finally accepted that I won’t be building a road bike these were destined for. They are in very good condition. Tapers and threads are excellent. 52-42 rings, 170 length. Comes with the original BB, also in great condition. £85posted, or £80 collected from SE or central London.
Cheers -

Chapeau! @DaveYates, Sir.
Great privilege to have you here.
Any recollection of this ?
I bought the frame in Yarm few years back. The former owner was a Roughstuff Fellowship member.
It was originally built for Arai drag brake. I’ve added the cantilever bosses myself 🫣.
It has really lovely chromed Suntour ends, high BB, and generous fork rake.
I love it -

That would be grand. All yours unless @coolraoul takes it.

Hello,
I got this a couple of years ago for a mate who ended up buying another in a smaller size so this has been sitting unridden, taking up valuable space. We transferred some of the bits onto the other bike so selling this as in photos. It needs a chain, shifters, front mech,some cables, and brakes. The frame and fork both have numerous chips and scratches (particularly on NDS) but nothing too bad. No cracks, dents etc. the cassette is almost new, the rims have no noticeable wear, seatpost moves freely. Hubs will need some grease, and the rear LX mech is pretty knackered but still works. The Zmax tyres have plenty of tread left but the sidewalls are perished. The original Force 40 canti hangers are present. Everything on the bike in the photos (apart from the shifters/levers) is included. Saddle, stem, seatpost, handlebars, wheels and headset are all original equipment. I might be able to add some canto brakes and a front mech. Any questions, just ask. Excuse crap photos, my phone is retro.£100 collected from SE London.
Thanks

Thanks @Shump !
Just got my first fully suspended bike built up so would be great to dial it in properly, and see what this new fangled fad is about (after 30 years on rigid 26ers).
