For Sale: Track drops, beater frame, handle bars, brakes, shifters, front mesh, bikes...

Beater frame (PRICE DROP - £7), MASSIVE SPEAKERS handle bars, shifters, front mesh, bikes...

Hi all,
I have some stuff in my shed that I don't and will not use, so it's for sale.
I'm London based, and don't want to post (sorry, too lazy), so collection / delivery / meeting at drinks, can be arranged.
At the end of this, if I sell anything or all, I will give 10% of it to the forum.
Dibbs and PM as usual, sorry if I am slow answering during WE...

1/ 3TTT pista handle bars, £25: [sold]

2/Beater frame, £10 ---- PRICE DROP £7 SOLD PENDING PICK-UP because I had to use the seat post on another bike-----:
It's an old Dawes mountain bike frame (reynolds 500 cro-mo, lugged) that I found and converted to a fixed gear beater (using 700c). I do not use it anymore...
It comes with a headset that needs replacement because is has a tight spot (you can not cycle with no hands because of that) unless, like I did, you consider that it doesn't matter as it is only a beater.
BB could do with a servicing as well, but once again, for a beater, it was fine to my standards.
It also comes with a mis-matching crankset: Shimano Exage on the drive side, that you can not remove unless you attack it with an angle grinder because the thread is f**ked and no crank remover can get it out, and a basic Stronglight left arm.
Finaly, it has vertical drop out, so you would need to use magic gear... I used 42X16 with a half link and chain tension was perfect.
The bottom picture shows how it looks like once built... All braze-on bits (cable stops, cantilever support on seat stays, etc...) on the frame (not the fork though) have been carefully and nicely shaved / removed and properly filed / sanded, then clear lacquered so it does not rust...
Size: Center of BB to top of seat post tube = 55cm (but as you can see the top tube is lower so I suppose you can take off 2cm from that...
Center of seat tube to center of head tube (top tube lenght I mean) = 56cm

Cheers.

I'll definitely take them then - will PM you.

Cheers.

Not sure... I doubt they would take 9 though... There are 2 positions for the rear mesh shifter, you can choose indexed or friction.

Will check for you.

Loic

Thanks, I'll be back on line later.
