Post by: medved on November 15, 2010, 09:54 PM
a work colleague of mine  used to ride back in the day as a kid up in the liverpool/runcorn area and this is his bike from back then.   anybody have an idea what it is other than a robinson? the frame is expert size and he thinks it's an 82 frame but wants more info to decide whether to sell it or keep it for display

Love the Tioga Spider/TA conversion  :daumenhoch:

Deffo a mini or Junior as denoted by the factory, the serial number on the dropout should have a letter on it, on that one it will be a "J" for Junior, "E" = Expert and "P" = Pro  :daumenhoch:

hey everybody. This is actually my bike. I have had it for about 28 years. Won 52 trophies with it and made several Video. paper and magazine apearances on it.

I have kept it all this time due to the sentimental value. However life must go on and I would like it to go to a good home.

If anyone is interested in buying it I would be greatful to receive any offers.

I believe it to be a 1979 bike ;D
