All items to be collected from Stoke Newington, N16. I work in Hammersmith though so can bring smaller items west or meet along the way.
‘Dos Santos’ track frame
54cm top tube, 52cm seat tube.
Bright/Royal blue with half chrome forks and seat stays. Chrome in good condition on the forks but a little shabby on the seat stays, not bad by any means though.
Not drilled for a brake anywhere.
Interesting lugs, never really seen anything similar. Don’t know anything about the tubing but it’s pretty light, the frame’s badged ‘Dos Santos’ by Toni Pedro’s cycle art, which is presumably the guy who sprayed the frame rather than made it. It also says Grand Prix on the top tube which will help you go faster. On the seat tube there’s the logo for Hammer ‘n’ Cycle which following a quick Google seems to be a bike shop in Australia.
Quite a few stone chips, could maybe do with a re-spray but also nice as it is.
No dings or dents. However the seat clamp seems to be a bit wonky, this has been the case since I’ve owned the frame and seems to be entirely cosmetic, as I’ve had no problems with it so far. You should be able to see this in the photos.
Includes Campagnolo bottom bracket and 26.6mm seat post. Haven’t a clue what the headset is, it’s pretty smooth but a silver one would certainly suit the frame better, I just never got round to changing it.
Pictures with 23c wheels to give an idea of clearances.

26.4mm Seatpost
330mm long, some insertion marks but otherwise excellent condition.
SOLD
Lake SPD Cycle Shoes
Size 10 / 44
No insoles or the butterfly plate things that the cleats screw into. Bought from eBay and worn once but they're a bit too big for me.
£5
Reydell GTI Saddle
Blue/grey colour, fairly shabby but still usable
SOLD
San Marco Concor Supercorsa
Pretty worn but still usable, same saddle as in the photos of the frame above
SOLD
Campagnolo Super Record Pista BB
English threaded 109mm ISO
Bought from the forum but I didn't need it in the end and it's been sitting in a drawer. Bearings will need some new grease but otherwise good to go.
SOLD
Kalloy Quill Stem
25.4mm clamp, 100mm long
SOLD
Sakae Quill Stem
25.4mm clamp, 80mm long
SOLD
Raleigh Stratos Road Frame
57cm top tube, 54cm seat tube. Piece of shit but could make an okay beater with a little effort. Will take 700c wheels, comes with a knackered BB and headset, back brake, lever, flat bars, cranks and pedals.
SOLD
