Our Bikes

Confession time! We have indulged ourselves!! We will be riding custom made bikes from Roberts Cycles.
If you are "into" bikes there is no better way to while away a couple of hours than going to Chas Robert's shop in Croydon to drool over the machines on display and to talk to Chas or Brian about what they and the "boys out the back" can do to fulfil your dreams. If you are in the market for a bespoke piece of engineering excellence that is easy on the eye, then we urge you to support London's last remaining bike framemaker - even though "you could buy a car for that much" is the inevitable response, rest assured it is money well spent.

Stephen's bike was a reward to himself for losing a significant amount of weight, Christine's a Silver Wedding present. We suspect that each gender will have a different perspective on the relative sacrifices involved!!

Pictures of the bikes to follow at which point you will be able to see the extent to which Chas and his team can customise the same basic design (in both cases a "Roughstuff Lite") to suit the buyer's individual requirements.
