The 'Let's Trade' discussion

ok, need stuff for the polo bike:

-seat post, 25.4mm and seat.. non-leather please!
-1" quill stem, shortish reach.. -- SORTED
-18 or bigger sprocket and chain, 1/8"
-bars maybe? decathlon have some beautiful bars for 7 quid, so might not be worth looking any further.. but if you have something special and cheap, let me know!

All of this should be really cheap, I don't mind ugly and rusty, as long as it's somewhat straight and works! :D

dogsballs cool. jon said he picked up some for £3 down in brick lane. but i don't go down there. but if you find some grab em and we'll sort something out.

in that case i might try and find the 3pound ones... tenner for the pedals on sunday that is. see ya at polo.

Hovis,

Back from holidays, moving into my flat this friday, still interested in those silver risers if you still have them. What do you want for them?

hey. welcome back. you can have them. don't need anything immediately, so perhaps you can help out another time. i'm at college from monday onwards.

anybody have a 17T or 19T cog they'd like to swap for a generic 16T cog

Hammo Looking for shimano road cleats. To fit SPD-sl

can trade from parts bin, i'll see what i have.

Yes.. I have...

I am after 15T, if you have one...

andrewleitch86 anybody have a 17T or 19T cog they'd like to swap for a generic 16T cog

17T to swap if you would like...

Broken77: Thanks for the headset! I'll let you know how it works out in about 30 years when I get around to replacing the busted one on the Soma ;)

I've got one, SS sachs hub laced on ambrosio rim... 120mm OLN standard 42mm chainline. hub is unsealed but regreased with phil wood grease 2 weeks ago and have not been used. you can have the armadillo + michelin superlight tube on it as well for a bit more trade/cash

Is this still going? I can trade for cash?

anyone have a spare pair of track nuts lying around and 2 x 700c rim tape? can pick-up at bike polo.

I do.. but they are 14mm not 15mm so if you only wanna carry one spanner.. tough!

thats fine, my wheel tool is 14/15mm and it is only for a bike that i'm selling.

In that case.. when/where/etc.

I also have the smaller nuts for what 9mm front axles, but these are brand new from hubjub so I'd want £9 or whatever they cost for them.

Do you still want those white tyres? I'm gonna start riding the Soma again soon..

just after the bigger rear axle bolts. maybe with tyres, only got a crappy pair of continentals i was going to put on a bike to sell, or a pair of black and yellow blizzards, and a single new armadillo

do you want to meet bottom corner of regents park/marylebone rd, in the morning/evening during your commute. whisper me

let us know if you want to flog those brakes hippy

dogs: Yeah, but it'll probably have to be next week or maybe Fri night coz I'm out of the office and using PT tonight and tomorrow. :(

wayne's world: It just so happens that a set of calipers arrived at my office the other day. Coinkydents? Like all bike work tho, it'll take me 14 years before I get around to swappin' 'em.. I need black levers now.. who's got a Record levers lying around? :)

i'll try LBS tonight and if no luck, i''l grab em tomorrow night. any of those tyres you like? if not, cool.

it's gone, sorry mate!

any one got an unwanted white saddle ??

Hovis, i'll drop by college next week. Will probably have to enrol before they let me in!

Actually, funny story... HSBC is giving me a new card, and it's waiting in the holborn circus branch, so i rode all the way there from canary wharf only to get there at 10 past five... also i forgot the key for my (nearly broken) bike lock so i couldnt leave my bike's side either. Ended up wandering back to back hill and just sitting outside it in a daze, and then adrian came down and we had a nice catch-up. Bet he was wondering what the hell I was doing there...

This was all today after a six hour drive & my first experience of riding fixed in london.

when was this? i must have just missed you. in any case, i'll bring the bars into work tomorrow and we can arrange something for next week. it's all going to kick off monday-onwards...bah.

i have a 60cm steel 12spd fuji frame w/tange headset that's in very good nick that i have sitting around... would like to swap it for a 58cm frame in similar condition, am not too fussed about looks but would prefer something with racing rather than touring geo (i have a 56cm touring frame that is my current fixie).

otherwise cash might do... cost me about 70 on ebay, will consider reasonable offers.

have pics etc, whisper to me or something.

Arghh!! i hate weird seat post sizes. Anyone got a 25.0mm or 25.4mm (1") post to fit an old raleigh? Going to see Jos tomorrow or BLB want £15 as a last resort.

weird? that's standard where I come from.. :D
