Paying respects on behalf of Roberts cycle owners everywhere.

[London Cycling Campaign @London_Cycling]

We were saddened to learn that one of Britain's finest active frame builders, Adrian Parry, passed away this week.

Adrian, an award winner, built a couple of thousand frames for Roberts Cycles, Reilly and Autostrada before setting up his own Six Four frameworks.

He also taught frame building to others so we trust his legacy will live on. @roadcc @WeAreCyclingUK

Roberts and other classic bike owners will be welcomed at Guildhall Yard, in the City of London,  on Sunday May 25th from 10.30 till 15.30. There will be music, stalls and rides. Full details of this and other London Cycling Festival events are here: https://t.co/1peifX62PF

@carltonreid @IKEAUK I bumped into a chap testing a new Ti/carbon Brompton (only caught him at a red light - he was motoring along 💨), he said it was pretty flexy - bit of a wet noodle (but then so is a regular Brompton).. But really light! WLTK how much is compatible with regular Brompton Acc’s..

@carltonreid @IKEAUK Looks like I spy a Brompton Ti…

@Fran_Snelgrove Fran, use the email on the Roberts website ([email protected]) and send me more info and pics and we’ll see if I can help.
Frame number is usually a six-digit number under the BB shell, and stamped on the fork steerer (if it’s a Roberts fork)
