Jez spent an age sourcing a Toad.

And then sold it...

I'm still looking for some information about my K2 Comp 91 Ultralight, so i guess it's pretty rare And you don't see those really often....

Hmmm... can't find a pic of a mid 90's Vertigo steel MTB. They made real lightweight frames out of steel. As I reckon, about 3 lbs... Anybody knows 'm ?

Does anyone have pictures of a mid 1980's, Bob Jackson' Col-Climber?

On another thread, the suggestion has been made that Bob Jackson may have made the frames for the very first Saracen mountain bikes. I need a picture of a Col-Climber frame in order to look for similarities or differences.

I used to have a 1984 Bob Jackson catalogue, but annoyingly, I can't find it.

Does anyone have one of these?

Apparently used to crack and fail very regularly - I'd be surprised if any of the Collelia frames survive

Yeh ---- "that Toad". I couldnt get my head around the perfect colour RAL no. for the respray.


I must admit it didnt look too exciting - visually and weightwise it was pretty similar to any Rocky Mountain.


Still, very very very rare. :?

I'm led to believe there was a bit of variation in the green colours, so it wouldn't have mattered too much if you had decided to repaint.

Don't know if this is rare enough, but it surtenly is one of the most beautyful FS bikes ever made IMO... though I might be a bit biased as an Ibis lover...
