WTB: Cheap parts for a turbo build

Posted on
  • As per title, putting together a bike to stay on the turbo, currently looking for these parts:

    • 170/172.5mm crankset, 24mm axle, 1x or 2x, 10/11s compatible. (Square tapered also works)
    • BBR60, needs to spin, used one is fine. (Square tapered also works)
    • Bullhorn bars 25.4mm clamp 40/42 wide
    • 11s RD, shimano/sram
    • 11s shimano cassette and chain

    Ideally located central or NE London

  • Think I've got a fairly lightly used KMC X11 chain you can have mate. Not sure how many links are on it, probably 112 or so. Potentially an 11-28 cassette too but need to check the spares box.

  • Think I might have a 6800 era RD in the parts box - let me have a look.

    (Prob also got a cassette as well if amac90 doesn't).

    Actually think I've got a 6800 chainset too....

  • Interested in RD and Chainset, let me know when you get a chance to check if you have them.. RDs are sneaky, I too thought I had one in the parts box, but seems to be gone!

  • Rd is definitely available, a bit scratched but assumed that’s fine for a turbo bike.

    Chainset is in some boxes and I’m moving house so won’t be able to confirm for a couple of days - I’m sure it’s there, just need to check condition etc!

  • just an idea but i have an old carbon TT cockpit ( bullhorns + extensions ) which is quite nice for this purpose, changing position etc.

  • Yeah, that's where it might evolve to, starting with bullhorns, then adding extensions in the future.. (good for the towel too!)

  • I'd be also looking for a friction shifter ideally bar end one
