For Sale: Flandria Freddy Maertens, Gios Cyclo-cross, F. Moser and more

Just as a teaser I'm adding some photos of road bikes for sale on Broadway Market in the coming weeks. And a cracking time to be selling I'm sure you'll agree.

These are the last of the current crop and have been held up until now, for one reason or another. A couple of these are really museum pieces - nevertheless they all work.

Apologies for the photo of the Moser btw. More details to follow tomorrow, but PM me if you want anything specific in the meantime.

Are these for sale?

Absolutely these are for sale!

dibs - Freddy Maertens, Gios Cyclo-cross. Need more info pls. will pm you:)

Some more details might help.

Sorry guys, the complete specs will follow tomorrow. I'm knackered and still thinking about the prices. Thank you for your interest,

I bought a frame from Richard Castle, he put up with me being quite a bit late and the frame was exactly how he described it.

Also, i won't really take dibs on these until I've put the full specs up. Only seems fair, sorry guys

Duly noted.

Campagnolo dropouts.

Assorted other bits:

Flandria-made rims and handlebars.
Shimano 600 front and rear mech; levers
SR Apex cranks

Price is going to be £300. PMs please. Collection is from Broadway Market, Hackney on Saturdays where this and the other bikes above will be for sale.

Also, here's the spec on the Gios cyclo-cross bike.

Actually, I'm not sure this is a Gios, but rather a very good replica. It is made with 531 and very lightweight as was sold through Plum in Ghent, so it's not going to be a real stinker. Frame size is tt 56cm, down tube 53cm.

Also there are some nice design features ,like the rear brake cable going through the seat-post (see picture). You just wouldn't do this with junk.

Also the bike has excellent wheels, although they take tubs: Mavic rims and Record hubs.

Although everything works this is a strange one to sell. To me, it feels like it should go in the window of a shop or something. I certainly couldn't recommend doing cross on it..

Anyway, it is an amazing bike. Price will be £300.

Measurements are 56cm top-tube c-2-c; 55cm downtube c-2-c; spacing at the rear is 125mm.

The frame has a Columbus decal, but doesn't specify which variety of this tubing is used. Whatever, it is very light. Also features a hollowed bracket and scooped stays at the seat mounting. It is a very delicate build.

I should mention that I had this frame repaired professionally as there was a crack at the rear dropout. As such the frame is cheap at £100.

I should say that a Shimano 600 BB and 600 headset are included with the above.

On the Moser bike (picture above)..

F. Moser Aluminium frame, 58cm tt c-2-c.

The groupset is all Shimano inc.
105/Ultegra 8-speed groupset inc. Ergoshiters

Mavic CXP/DPS rims on Ultegra hubs.

Bike has a new chain, cables and bar tape.

And the price will be £325.

All nice.

All nice.

This.

how bad was the crack and what's the current situation with it on the schils?

do you have any less dark pictures - I know there's squat daylight around these days...

Could the Gios be for sale as frame and forks only? What is the seat tube dimension please and will it accept 36mm width tyres? Thanks.

Hi Starjump. I'm not going to split the Gios at this point, but the price has dropped to £250. From memory the seat-tube is 27. Again without looking at it, I imagine 36mm tyres would work. Get in touch if you want to come and view in Dalston at any point in the week.

Also the Maertens is now £250. With prices dropping like the temperature..

Hi Zatchmo, The Schils is still for sale. I'll get a detailed pic of the repair up (in a decent light) this week

@RC, how much does the flandria weigh roughly?

even if you could tell me heavy/med/light

re. MacNall's question above. The Flandria is built with Ishiwata 022, and the components are decent quality. So I think medium/lightweight is fair. For 1975.
