[QUOTE=joe1983;715012]Just got my frames back from a respray at Bob Jackson - I think they look class! Both are late 60s early 70s and were a wreck before. Going to build up the Merlin as a geared bike with Nuovo record, record, gran sport groupset I have and a nice brooks. Thinking about building the Freddie Grubb as a fixed with black deep v's on some gold on one high flange hubs I have but will probably sell it as my bike collection is a lot healthier than my bank balance. Here's some pics:

When I first got my bob it did look and feel BIG. But then I soon realised that it's this size for a reason...... it was made to fit me for the track. They have track geometry and this one is Manchester legal so an even higher BB. I'm 5'8 so not the tallest: it looks to me to be for a taller person.
I love it, it is the perfect fit for me and I doubt I'll ever do better. Super comfy, use it every day rain or shine and it makes me smile.

yeah yawn nice, i think that would be a little big for me too, but you are right - it's right size - mine is a touch small me thinks now, and that looks well sweeeeeet - I probably wouldnt want to go any bigger though personally....
@ superprecise - that frame has miche cranks and hubs and forget the rims, but nice set up for the grand - i'm pretty sure its that green too
