Ok, bought this a few weeks ago even though I suspected it was too small and unfortunately it is.

So offering it up at what I paid for it which is £525 collected. Apologies to original owner as I'm using his accurate photos.

The bike is a 1994 Roberts Dogs Bolx with a White Spider rear triangle (for added comfort apparently). It's in very good condition as you can see from the photos although of course there are a few nicks.

Frame is 50cm b/b to top of top tube, effective top tube length is 57cm and the original owner was 1.82m (approx 6 ft?)
Manitou 3 fork
Roberts stem
Wheels are Mavic on Hope ti hubs with original Panaracer Smoke/ Dart tyres
Middleburn cranks with Pace chainrings
Pace RC130 bars
Royce titanium bottom bracket
X-Lite seatpost and bar ends
XTR M900 rear mech and XT front
XT thumbies
XTR M900 cantis
Blue alloy bolts throughout
PLEASE NOTE THAT THERE IS NO SADDLE OR PEDALS (they were not part of the deal agreed and the original owner still has them)

This is a totally classy bike and I'm gutted that it isn't my size. I'm hoping NOT to split as I believe it should stay together but may do if there are no takers for the whole bike (however please don't call dibs or similar on various parts, I'll list again with prices if it gets to that).

That's rather lovely, although I would say that as I've also got a Dogs Bolx with the White Spider back end! Nice to know how much they're going for though.

Actually not gone yet!

A few interested parties (one described himself as a saddle sniffer :shock: which I kind of liked) but still available.
 
Buy now!

Saw this at Teddy Edwards' t'other day - sheer class - a new owner will be well chuffed with this fine British steed!

That's as may be... if I wasn't spending so much cash on bringing OWMTBC to the world I could!

Isn't it about time you invested in some real British steel yourself - I already have a Roberts, Yates, Overbury's and an Orbit... Get your wallet out whilst the exchange rate is with you - perfect to ride at MM 09 too... :)

Plenty of tyre kickers (saddle sniffers?) but it's still available. Can bring to MM if that helps.
