am clearing out some old stuff . am reluctant to skip it as someone may be able to use and salvage is some way = Iknow this is a fixed forum but someone out there may want
I have old don farrell 531road frame 24.5 inch - its got small dent in tob tube and needs spray and reapair by filling.Campag rear ends I think.Its got mavic bottom bracket (which runs very smooth)as threads were a bit iffy = its made for frame where threads not 100% due to age.Its got old 1976 campag strada chainset 175mm cranks - rings worn but cranks just about ok for old bike.Fork is ok but got mudgaurd eyes - if you can use fork alone it might be worth the trip?Its spaced for freewheel at 125mm not cassette - Ive been using it one time for turbo training
The other frame is yellow aluminium coppi .hardly used.Its clean and straight but has vertical drop outs. its also about 63cm frame =Im 6 3 and its ok for me.problem was I bought on ebay and shopwho fittted headset may have tapped headset in a touch hard = so theres a very small hairline crack a top of headtube about 1 cm long.Shop assure me its structually sound and ok to ride - or repair if you know someone who can work with aluminium and dont want to fill it.If you can do that it would be perfect but heat would need some paint touching up.It has no forks as Ive put them on different bike
Anyway if youre interested you can collect from me.
Ive also got some 36 spoke campag s/f record hubs with mavic clincher rims which go with this =clean and true with bearings in vgc as replaced.But am going to have to sell those on different ad.they are too good to give away
Cant photo right now as im laid up sick
Im up in watford though
