LoneWolf Posted March 10, 2015 Share #51 Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) Uglybob, I had the same 564. Named her Scarlett, after her paint job. Sold her a long time back after a lot of changes. The two rides I own now. My older bike (aka "Ol' Blue") - a 1993 Trek 1420, with most of the gear swapped out, though I bought it used in near-original shape. Starlight, my main ride (2003 Trek 2300, only original parts are frame and fork) Edited March 10, 2015 by LoneWolf 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoneWolf Posted March 10, 2015 Share #53 Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) LW, I think yours is slightly taller than mine. 25 inches was the largest frame I have ever ridden. Or ever will ride again. I do wish I could have brought one of my bikes to MN to have PP stand next to it though. Edited March 10, 2015 by LoneWolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah....a Bob Jackson from the late 70's or early 80's I think. Looks like more of a road bike than a tourer but Bob Jackson made lovely bikes.

The paint is a sort of baked enamel that is pretty swell. There's a Bob Jackson Super tourist out in the garage, to, but it is newer in vintage. They show up in the SF Bay area a lot on the used market, because of Bicycle Odyssey over in Sausalito, which had some sort of connection to the man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a lovely bike....apart from the hideous stem which will prevent you from ever entering Heaven. Has anyone come across a George Longstaff? Now dead he was regarded as the Doyen of frame-builders. I'll have to find a photo of the frame he made for my wife which was a work of art.

It's a just a joke, right ? I doubt it. If I was remotely in your size range, I'd call dibs on the orange one. I don't have a really classic ride. Of course, these days, first-gen indexing Dura-Ace would be classic on the right frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Page Turner Posted March 18, 2015 Share #75 Posted March 18, 2015 ...just got back from the first ride on a Mk IV Raleigh Pro from about 1974, I think. Recent restoration, I finally got tired of trying to match the paint and just put it together. it is fast, and it is sweet. As the fixed gear hipsters say, "Fast and sweet." 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Page Turner Posted March 26, 2015 Share #96 Posted March 26, 2015 Page Turner, how tall are you? Those look like some tall bikes....only 6' 2", but in my dotage, I've gone to about 60cm as my ideal size, and with a little tweaking of stem and saddle, I can comfortably ride anything from 58cm on up to 61 or 62 so long as I can make the standover, which varies with seat tube angle. I think maybe they call it "French fit", with not much seatpost showing. That black Raleigh is about max for me to ride safely. The blue one is a 24". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
az_cyclist Posted March 26, 2015 Share #97 Posted March 26, 2015 Impressive az.
