If anyone's been converting a bike to fixed and has a suitable set of decent quality gears going spare, I'd be interested in buying them. I'm looking for something suitable for the below bike (which has a mediocre huret rear mech at the moment), I'm much more interested in quality than historical accuracy, but would prefer to stick with downtube shifters. The bike will be used by my girlfriend for touring so need something that's reliable (because I'll be the one fixing them).
Ideally want a front & rear mech and the shifters. MIght also be interested in a crankset.
I'm also looking to ditch the 27" wheels, so I'd be interested in a pair of 700c wheels - or even just a compatible rear 700c wheel.
Sorry if that's a bit vague. It just seems like they'd be the exact parts going spare if someone was doing a conversion, so thought this was a good place to ask.
Willing to pay anywhere between £10 and a £100 depending on what's on offer.
Cheers
