What is this Bob Jackson worth?
Assuming this 1980 BJ is in good mechanical, cosmetic and riding condition, what would you estimate it's worth?

Do that, add some Gum brake hoods and cloth bar tape and $650 ish. Its size knocks some value off. Bob Jackson has had a variable reputation over the decades. This appears just after the dark period, but its close. For a while, the bottom bracket shells almost w/o exception were distorted, it was re-tap the shell, check the shell faces, and when it was evident that over 1 mm per side was needed to get a square face, install a Phil Wood bottom bracket. In a conversation with Bob Jackson about this in 1975, he admitted that some of the lad's were a bit heavy in clamping the shell in the bench vise. |

It will be worth more without the foam grips, extension levers, rearview mirror and reflectors.

Otherwise, it was a great frame, and I still mutter dark curses on the thief who took it out of my garage, even though that was almost 20 years ago now. |
"BoB Jackson" with turkey wings ? IT HURTS MY EYES :eek:
|
Original owner? Looking to purchase or sell?
|
Someone please buy that thing and set it up with something that it deserves.
|
Good to learn a little about the dark ages, good to know, thanks.
I assume the OP is the seller. I've got nothing to add so I'll shut up now. |
