Karma Rock Lobster Expert

gradeAfailure

Senior Retro Guru
Kindly given to me by Kingroon in exchange for a pair of pedals - if I'm honest, I don't think I'll ever get round to turning it into anything and it's a little small for me really...

17" Rock Lobster Expert (Paul Sadoff-designed, Taiwanese-built) frame, steel, 1993. Metallic green but seat tube has been partially stripped and it really needs a repaint. No major dings (one small crimp from an over-tight front mech) or rust.

Yours for the cost of postage or can be collected from just outside Woking, Surrey.

Have a rare(ish!) 1" Impact headset and a 1" threaded Orange F7 fork to go with it for £20, plus a Deore DX front mech that fits as well for a fiver if wanted.

Cheers!
 
If the frame gets as far as nobby's second dibs, I'd really like that headset...
 
For whoever gets the frame....Gil has the decals for these on file as he did some for me recently :wink:
 
jamabikes got in there first, so it's his call...

Headset cups and BB are out now.
 
sorry chaps but that looks lovely :)

g.a.f yhpm :)

ninety, would be happy to let you have the headset though if you have one to swap it for?
 
@jamabikes - it does look lovely - lucky person!

Unfortunately I was after the headset as mine (or at least part of it) is knackered. It's a 1" threaded XT, but there's a big chip out of the head race - everything else is fine, mind, so if you ever come by a 1" Shimano head race...

Good luck with the build - I'd always fancied a Rock Lobster (before I got the Sunn, of course)
