BoTM markjohnson76's 1989 Roberts Phantom is the February 2024 'UK Special' Bike of The Month

Bike of The Month
That's two for two in 2024 for @markjohnson76, this time with his 1989 Roberts Phantom. Picked up locally, for not much more than a song, Mark had the frame, in all its Columbus Max OR beauty, and a Zinn fork refinished by the Vaz brothers, Winston and Mario, who both worked for Roberts previously. Winston confirmed that he built this frame back in 1989, so who better to carry out the work! You can check out the before and after pics in this thread and see the full line-up in the poll thread. Congrat's Mark!

Congrats Mark, lovely. This has been really useful as it now confirms what my dad's Roberts is. It was stickered up as an RFD racing but we knew it was a Roberts when we bought it from the Malvern Hills Classic in 89. I plan on replicating your graphics for sure.
