Finally getting around to listing this for sale, 2 years after I took it apart and sold the Mavic group set. I’ve had it for several years and had it repainted by Bob Jackson’s in 2020. It’s an enamel paint. The build thread is here: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/1990-roberts-stratos-e-stay.409798/

The frame was built in May 1990 and Roberts classed it as a 19.5”. That’s the centre to top seat tube measurement. C to C is 17”. It has an actual top tube of 22”, effective around 22.5”. The head tube is 126mm and it takes a 1” headset. It takes a 30mm seatpost and a 31.8 front mech. I have both leftover from the Mavic group set that could be included for extra. It’s built with 531 Magnum tubing. Reynolds rear dropouts are spaced at 132mm so could spring either way to 130 or 135. I ran it with 130. Effective chain stay length is 16”.

The frame was spec’d with a Track 2 but I sourced a Roberts fork from a White Spider. I assume it’s Columbus tubed because the dropouts are Columbus. The axle to crown is 390mm.

It stands me at much more but I’ll set the price at £700 plus post. Collection from Notts an option too.

Aaargh!
After much analysis, I've determined that this is taller than I'm willing to risk.
Thanks anyway for considering me.
...Next in line?
