Pictures not clear on my tablet but is there a hole through the seat post top and a bevel on that NR seat post as there is on a superleggera ?

Don't know much about petini, but this looks a decent quality tandem, currently £43:

Good spot! Just bid up to £100!

Thanks @Tonts

EDIT: Increased my bid to £155 but was outbid!

Is that a 58t chainring?!

I've counted 59!

RAPID

Doesn't mention the repair in the text.

Conduit bender.

Nishiki cross/Touring/Gravel bike, some cool stuff, Japanese built frame, probably not worth £100 as it is but the basis for a great build IMHO.

Unlucky @Vince. Looked a very racy set up.

The Pat Skeates frame he's selling is really nice too.

Planet X are having a flash sale on a wide range of their frames:

I don't know if I should laugh or cry ..... no that's a lie, I'm still laughing now ;-)

Take a look at this POS and see if you can guess the price....

no, higher ..... no, still higher ! Well, it's been reduced to £1,700 - Yup you read that right !

I did send the poor sap a note saying that I thought it was a little high. And he sent me a reply (below) that makes it sound like a bunch of local dealers have lead the idiot "up the garden path" and mugged him at every step of the way. I don't think I'll be going to MudDock for any advice ;-)

Thanks for your message.
The parts to restore the bike came to approx £900, plus the frame and hand made wheels. A few other mechanics and MudDock bike shop in Bristol valued at £1700 - £1800. Thanks for your interest though.

If anyone feels like enlightening the poor boy, then you can find the full listing here:

Or we could all just carry on with our lives and leave them be.

Oh shiiiiiit
