It's almost-certainly the surname of the builder i.e.  Robins rather than Robin's that would be the builder's first name.

FFS, don't start him off again!

Where is 'local'? Stick your location in your Klein (nice bike) ad as well. Ta.

Corrected for reality. (Is there a 'line through quotes' feature on here?)

Nice looking bike, I've always like the T-Mobile colours, the pedals are a nice touch (not many of these around?). A lot of bike for the money; I've commented before that it's a real shame that good frames with nice groupsets are reduced to low prices. I know that it's a combination of the slow...

Hi Jamie, Do you need 32 or 36-hole and black or silver? Kevin.

Very tidy and presentable, had little use and not been in a crash etc. Original screws and washers, threads all fine and working. Still has the inspection sticker on the inside. Some very light signs of insertion to about 170mm below seat rails but not very noticeable, the paint is all...

I should have been more specific as I'd seen 'Wales' in your name-box (whatever it's called) and wondered if you were anywhere near me in the north-west of Wales. I've a pair of XC717 rims laced with DT double-butted spokes to XT hubs (731, maybe?). If you are heading up north then I'd be...
