There's a guy called Paul Cameron offering what he claims to be a Hobbs of Barbican bike on Ebay (number 2161914287). The frame number he has listed doesn't fit in with any of the configurations known to VCC marque enthusiast Mervyn Cook. It is therefore extremely unlikely that this bike is a Hobbs. I've emailed Paul to let him know. It will be interesting to hear his response.
