D-O-G-S-B-O-L-X 1" forks with disc mounts

Would be quite a bike, built with pace forks and period hope discs front and rear, imho.

I would be tempted to go retro-mod with a speedhub...

Wouldn't that be rather like using a racehorse to pull a plough?

 

[secret_squirrel]

depends on your viewpoint I suppose. Not all racehorses are lightweights.... I would argue that the engineering passion thats gone into the Roberts and the Rohloff makes them a good match. But horses for courses....

For the sake of £50 i get the cable guides put on. Then id paint it. That ghastly colour just would not do.

I asked the seller what size it was. He has added a new photo with dimensions. Looks to be a 17-18 incher.

 

[NeilM]

Just my size

I would also remove the remaining rack mount.

Sticks out like a sore thumb now. Has anybody asked who the additional disc mount was done by..? Roberts or elsewhere..?
