Thank you Danson67. This is very useful information. I really appreciate your time and effort getting this and explaining the MAX tube most likely used for my bike. Mike

Before my DOGSBOLX I had a White Spider and that suffered a chronic chain suck incident while riding in the Mendips. The chain virtually carved all the way through the chain stay. After that experience I decided to fit a chain suck device on the DOGSBOLX. 🙂

Hi, you can search my name for a few posts about my DOGSBOLX which incidently I collected the frame from Chas Roberts cycles 30 years ago yesterday! Here are some photos to be getting on with.

Here’s one bodge I made for the Dogsbolx. A chain suck device made from a cut down Ringle original. I had bolt mounts fitted to the chain stay when the Bike frame was made. I also cut down chain side plates stacked onto the mounting bolts to act as guides for the derailleur cable to line up with...

Thank you for your offer I will be interested in seeing what your tube measurements are. I think your tube set listed is exactly what I have got and was commonly used in the early 1990s. I know Roberts would mix and match tube sets despite my build sheet just saying MAX. I have the Ritchey BB...

Hi, I know this is a bit of a nerdy question. I am trying to confirm which Columbus MAX tube set I have on my 1994 Roberts DOGSBOLX. The original Roberts build sheet quotes MAX and I think it may be MAX OR. I have looked everywhere on line and I cannot find any Columbus MAX OR tube dimensions...

That is an original Middleburn cable oiler. I bought a full set in 1994 to add to every cable on my Roberts Dogs Bolx I was building. I still have it. You pull back the rubber ring to inject lube into the cables. They make cable maintenance so easy. I placed that one there to protect the frame...

Check the upper reinforcement sleeve on the seat tube. If the rear has a scollop cut into it creating two points then the frame was built by Winston Vaz. It was a unique signature he built into all his frames.

Hi, based on my Roberts frame number and when I got it, your frame number should be read as Yr 95, Mth 02 and sixth one registered that month.

Today I plucked up the courage to bake my heavily bloomed tyres which I bought on ebay 4 years ago in the fan assisted oven. I followed the instructions that have been posted here online and everything worked perfectly. Thread 'NOS tyres' https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/nos-tyres.392821/...

I have two bolts originally from my M900 shifters. I replaced them with titanium bolts when I bought them in 1994. I never throw things away! Both are rust free and even have the original thread locking compound on them. I don’t have the original split washers which you will need as they also...

I’ll check my stash of Shimano steel nuts and bolts today and let you know. How many do you need?

That’s ok. Thank you for explaining the removal.

The rarest thing I have is a pair of SRP titanium brake cable adjusters bought in 1994.

I still have my original caps since 1994! I used puncture repair kit rubber solution glue to keep them in place between shifter services.

Hi, a friend of mine wants to renovate her deceased husbands 1992 Klein Attitude that has been sitting in the garage for over 25 years. She would prefer to send it to an expert in Kleins to do this. Can anyone advise me who are the preferred Klein repair workshops in the UK and any feedback on...
