Is anyone else still riding a DOGS BOLX?

A few months ago I was riding along the Basingstoke canal on my Roberts Roughstuff when I met a fellow Roberts rider on a DB or White Spider, I cannot remember which and last week on the Leeds to Liverpool canal another Roberts MTB went the other way but I did not get the chance to speak to the rider.

I must be riding in the wrong places I’ve never met anyone else on a Chas Roberts in 30 years of riding mine.

I have never owned a Roberts frame /bike but to my eye they always look well thought out and well made . In my area Wakefield West Yorkshire I know of at least two Roberts owners one with a white Spider and another with a road bike . Last Christmas I bought my girl friend a club man compact second hand bike , she gets on with it great and it suits a five foot one lady . I think I would be right in saying Geoff Roberts (brother of Chas ) and Winston Vaz ( ex Roberts frame builder ) would make a 2025 version of a DB so the tradition and availability continues .
