Ian, from the Regent had his bike nicked from Portland Square yesterday - snipped cable lock apparently. Bought off Huge16 off here: details as follows if any of you see it about. He'd recently changed the saddle to a german vintage leather thing:
Triumph Geared Bike
Bit of British (actually Taiwan) Steel. Pearlised blue frame - nice colour but some cosmetic scratching esp to front forks
Top Tube 21in
BB to middle top tube 22in
BB to top of seat tube 23in
27 x 1 1/4 wheels - chrome pitted and rusted in pictures
Dura Ace brakes - some life in the pads
Weinmann levers
ITM Stem (80mm)
Steel Bars (42cm) - chrome pitted in places
Shimano Tourney front and rear mechs - good cosmetic and mechanical condition
SR Custom cranks 170mm - good condition
Michelin tyres - cracked and old but hold the pressure
White saddle on microadjust seatpost - no name and scuffed and has tears
Pedals - no name rusty but work OK. Will chuck in some better pedals
Overall this is no lightweight but would be a good winter commuter.
Mechs, headset and axles cleaned and regreased.
New inner and outer cabling throughout
New chain
Smooth BB
