• Hello!
    I am looking for some decent silver bits and a black steamroller fork.
    Ideally, I'll need:

    1. 30.0mm Seatpost clamp
    2. Seatpost 27.2
    3. Wide risers
    4. 90mm ahead stem
    5. 1 1/8 straight threadless headset
    6. Track cranks

    They don't need to be in pristine condition but I am looking for good quality parts.
    Nitto, Thomson, Ritchey (classic), Sram omnium, Sugino, Chris King, Hope, Wolftooth...

    In the best case, I would just trade my black stuff for your silver stuff.
    I got black Thomson stems, seatposts and seatpost clamp, black omniums, wide Nitto gravel drops and some red Hope bits. Headsets, bb, seatpost clamp...
    There is some more stuff from my parts box in here. Maybe there is something interesting. Also happy to do half trades plus cash.

    I could be tempted for some blue, purple or orange bits but silver is the priority.
    Hit me up if you got something.

    UPDATE:
    Alright...
    Seems like I managed to trade my way to some steamroller forks and a silver seatpost.

    I am still looking for some wide silver risers, a stem, a headset and maybe silver om nom noms?

    Just looking for a stem now. Something with cnc'ed edges like a Thomson X4 or a Nitto UI 25.

    More trading would be cool but I could also buy some stuff. Does anybody got anything for me?

    • Finishing kit wanted.png
  • I have a silver thomson seatpost clamp that i would exchange for a red hope one

  • I’ve got silver Miche Primatos with BB (which could also come with a Blackspire British Cycling team chainring) which I’d part ex for some black Omniums? I’d obviously add cash…

    Let me know if that’d be of interest, no worries if not!

  • +Glws Yes please! I'll dm you.
    +mf sorry but that's a no. I don't trust them (Miche cranksets considered harmful?)

  • Nothing to offer I'm afraid, but I wanted to add:

    The vision quest mood board of parts is excellent;

    The hope seatclamp is not excellent

  • i have ritchey kyote BUT not silver

  • I’d swap a straight silver Thomson seatpost (27.2 x 410) for a black of the same type (or a setback) assuming the states were roughly similar.

  • I've got a Sugino RD2 crankset (165, silver) with a matching stainless Bike Punx 3mm chainring (for 1/8 chains) that might be up your street?

  • +Cupcakes cheers haha. I am always to lazy to read everything. I look at images first. Thought it might help.

    +amey thank you. Kyote bars are great but not right for this bike.

    +vilms5000 I’d be up for that. I have two or three (need to go trough my boxes) there is another on my bike at work. I can dm you pictures and we can compare.

    +passhunting cheers! I’ll check them out and let you know.

  • I’ve potentially got a silver Ritchey stem but it’s 110mm and I’ve a set of new uncut and unpainted steamroller forks that I was going to have modified and painted…

  • Hmm, I am afraid that might be too long but I will check.
    Forks sound cool but I am wondering if getting them powder coated or painted does not raise the price to be the same as a new one?

  • potentially yeah, I've not looked into the cost of powder coating... I was thinking I'd paint them myself

  • got a silver inline Thomson post, will sell or swap for black

  • @Wadi2 Cheers! I'll check with @vilms5000 first but might come back to you.

  • Here are three some of the Thomson bits I can offer.

    1. Thomson Elite 31.6 x 410 - Pretty much new
    2. Thomson Elite 27.2 x 330 - No deep scratches but used condition with traces.
    3. Thomson Masterpiece Setback 27.2 x 330 - very decent condition
    4. Thomson Elite X4 0 x 100 x 31.8 - very decent condition.
    5. Thomson seatpost clamp 29.8 / 27.2

    There is another 27.2 x 410 Seatpost on a bike currently at work. And I might have another Thomson stem somewhere.

  • I have a steamroller fork in black but only problem is I'm in Dublin so one or both of us could get done for Brexit taxes on a trade. Send me a dm if you want to look into it though and I can send you some pics of the fork

  • I’ll get you pics of the silver 27.2 x 410 post tomorrow? It’s in a bag in a box in the shed …

  • Sure no rush!

  • The hope seatclamp is not excellent

    oo didn't know they had problems? was just looking at buying one in silver myself

  • Saw some hate for them recently. Don't know why. I have a few and no issues?

  • They can work, but they're not designed in the optimum way for this sort of clamp. So, they're not the best at turning bolt tension into seatpost clamping force.

    My experience is that they can be done up real tight and still creak and slip. Notwithstanding the tolerances of seat tube and seat post playing a role, there are cheaper clamps that theoretically hold tighter. Anything where the screw threads into an insert that can rotate is a good start, e.g. salsa clamps.

  • I've got a silver Thomson x4 stem 90mm pm me

  • I have a 110mm Nitto UI-25 going spare, along with a set of oversized albatross bars and a slightly ratty 65 seatpost if any of those are of interest? Think they all might be a bit off what you're after though.

  • I'm sure I've got some widish silver risers in the garage, made by Funn.

    Any use to you?
