Bob Jackson - The Second Coming

[Landslide]

My new Audax Club, bought for me by my wonderful girlfriend to replace the one I rather carelessly parked in the front end of a Range Rover.
First outing tomorrow, all being well.

Looks great.

Just hope you're ready for the usual comments about your weeding or dry stone wall maintenance.

 

[Landslide]

No worries, it's nextdoor's garden!

 

[longers]

Very nice

Front mudguard looks a bit close at the bottom no?

 

[wafflycat]

I do hope that should your girlfriend have a whim, you will be pandering to it for the next... ooh... ten years at least?

Garden needs weeding, by the way. And that ivy will ruin the dry stone wall.

what shifters are they?

 

[Landslide]

Sora. It's a right old mish-mash of gears.

Nice bike. Bob Jackson do make some nice bikes.

My mate has a custom built Bob Jackson. The bike itself isn't my cup of tea (rohloff hub, fat tyres, flat bars) but the frame is beautiful.

Thats very nice, want one too.
I love internal cable routing.
Was it bought as a whole bike or did they stick all your bits from the other bike on it? how much was it all together, if you dont mind me asking?

 

[Landslide]

Frame, forks and Chorus aheadset, plus a little extra for internal cabling and my name on the toptube came in at about £450.
I then built it up myself (some bits I already had, some I bought).

I want my name on my top tube now. What a lovely bike!
