Yup, i know, what this forum really needs at the moment is another for sale thread... but the bills are mounting up and the shiny things just keep getting dusty while i spend my time in the sleep deprivation experiment known as fatherhood. So, if you have a pressing need to flex your internet skillZ, please move along, nothing to see here...
First up, a relic of my massively successful track career. A pair of Corima 4spokes that i bought when i thought couriering would be an easy way to train for track supremacy. Several years of muscle-withering stop/start cycling and poor nutrition and these baby's are ready to roll on to someone who'll actually use them...

these have received a matt black paintjob by some one who knows what they're doing and are suitably stealthy, they come with a pair of unglued tufo s3 lite tubular tyres and are the smoothest spinning wheels i have ever had the misfortune to not use... you'll need a french threaded lockring to use these off the track if, god forbid, you wanted to, although i believe that kind of thing only goes on in japan. They have a few knocks from storage and the lockring thread is a little dinked on one section so - **£275 - on hold for pistoffski
**Next up a front 700c tri-spoke from the era when Hed produced for Specialized, it has a threaded section to the hub for rear use if respaced, black vinyl reproduction Hed decals and currently has a continental sprinter tub.

It's a tubular hed, need i say more? £175 **sold to philxthomas

Right, that's the bling over with, now something a little more functional. On-one hubs on what appear to be rigida dp18, with a 17t freewheel, conti sport contact in 28c and all of twenty miles on them, track nuts have been cannibalised from one wheel so you'll need to get a new set but otherwise a pretty sweet setup...

£80 to you sir - currently waiting for a response from Ke35
and last of all my much loved but sadly redundant black Paul wheelset, 32 hole black spokes&nips, velocity on the rear and a machined dp18 on the front. All in good condition the paul hubs are amazingly well designed. photos to come. £175 - ** sold to the man with the excellent bike, good to meet you CTML.

The usual rules apply, no dibs, postage only if you are able to tolerate a postage schedule that could span weeks (christ knows how i made it into the good traders thread...) and pickup with cash from sw1 or sw16 means you will be eternally blessed and possibly bumped to the front of the queue.
The forum will get a percentage of all sales(and i owe vb for the last one so that percentage will be as generous as possible once rent is sorted)
ah and scottnotarchie... gets a £50 discount on all future sales for saving my back on the dynamo... massive, massive thanks.
