I have a pair of Chater Lea 'cottered' cranks for sale (the kind known as 2-pin, as the third chainring bolt screws into the right crank arm). The arms are the 'fluted' kind. I think this two-pin pattern is later for Chater Lea, so 1950s.
They have been rechromed at some point, so the chater lea logo is a little faint, but still there.
I bought them from hilary about 18 months ago in really good condition. They now have a couple of marks on the chrome - some has come off the round end of the crank, and one or two small marks. The chainring thread in the DS arm and the pedal threads are in good condition.
The bolts still have their chroming on the part that exposes through the chainring, and with locktite they have been secure ridden fixed.
£70 for the cranks with bolts. The bolts are hard to come by.
I have two 'CL' lettering-patterned rings, a 1/8" 48t in good condition and a 42t 3 3/2" in good condition.
£15 each.
The changer I have to sell is a Cyclo Benelux coil-spring type (Mk3 I believe), from a 5 speed bike dating from late 50s/early 60s. It and the Benelux shifter are in excellent nick. The shifter is for a braze-on, and has the big knurled lever damper on top like the bottom middle photo here:http://www.classiclightweights.co.uk/cyclobenelux.html
I have a late 50s/early 60s 5speed screw-on freewheel in excellent condition, not sure which brand but must be solid stuff as it's still smooth and the teeth are in really good nick.
£50 for the gear set and freewheel.
I have a few sets of pedals suitable for steel cranks too (they have the unusual shorter spindle-thread), some nice but tired-looking campagnolo (not sure from which group), two pairs of lightweight lyotards and a no-name quill pair with one bent plate. Campag pedals £10, Lyotard £5 each pair, the no-names £2.
PM for photos.
Would sell the whole set (incl both rings) to a puppy-resurrector for £130, with the campag pedals mentioned thrown in too.
