hi
you interested in swapping with vintage dutch lightweights?

I'd like to have a look.

No worries. What sort of things have you got?

1978 RIH model:Campagnolo
Early seventies Locomotief (quite rare)
and 80ties Colnago eco edx.

I look forward to the photos.
Cheers.

No, indeed he doesn't.

the fitting of the saddle clamp in this manner helps to give a more forward riding position and puts you closer to the vertical line of the bottom bracket if that is required/preferred.
@skully kids today eh? rolls eyes

sorry if i missed something.

At last, the vintage men are here! I mean that in the nicest possible way.

My apologies...
Despite the hint of sarcasm, I was genuinely intrigued...
So, er... Thanks ?

No-one's offended dilster. I wanted to show you lots of bikes, with similar old-fashioned geomtry, set up this way. coppiThat decided to put it into words for you. I used to think the exact same thing, then I learned that it was done like that in the 'good old days' (eek).

Can't believe no-one's bought this, really. Makes the Pashley Guvnor look silly when you can buy actual old things rather than faux reproductions.

Yeah, I thought £200 posted was a pretty fair price.
I've got some nos Bluemels mudguards I can throw in. Yellow I think.
Or some more period white ones, which are quite fragile, but more in keeping.

anyone know where i can get a chater-lea cottered crank from? mine sheared and it was more depressing than my girlfriend leaving me.

Does it have to be Chater?
I've got a mint Williams track chain set.

If you aint sold it you can hang it in my new vintage shop im sure it will sell for double that in 5 mins!

Thanks for your message if it was 23" or larger I would of been interested.The search continues
