Re:
See how useful this forum has been for me. (It's been the most productive week!!), I thought I would try my luck with one other frame.
I mentioned previously that I have a Roberts too. This one is damaged, so restoration would be more extensive, but would it be worth it? I've tried looking for the most appropriate thread, but have struggled to find the one. Any thoughts would be good.
Details are;
Approximately mid 70's, possible 75. frame number is 344 as stamped on the rear drop out.
Unfortunately I had a shunt why riding it. (It was my main bike, when I was big enough!). Both the top and down tube are bend. The forks are untouched.
The chrome is tarnished, but ok. I can't see the tubes can be saved, so it would probably need the top and down tube replaced and possible the front end completely. Followed by a re-paint.
I'd appreciate a view on the repairs, but also a point in the right direction.
Also, the last one, (I promise!) is a Geoffrey Butler frame from the early 90's. Is there a suitable forum for discussing its origin too.
