I also grew up in Blackburn and Rob's was my local as well.

I haven't seen any bikes made by Rob's but, like you, would be keen to get a hold of one.

I recently acquired a Barkley Star, that was made in Barkley Street, Footscray. It makes the perfect pub bike :)

Cool rig dude. The original poster hasn’t logged in since 2009 from the look of it. Plus, if you intend to sell it during the the great Covid bike famine period you should be multiplying that price by four at least ....

Someone from that era and area would love it for the paint job alone.
