Not coming tomorow? Sunday is fine.

Yeah I'm still coming tomorrow just the cash flow is fubar until Friday.

Insurance renewal.. Paid it in one lump to avoid installment charges.

Yeah prices have gone up loads too! I'll bring it down tomorrow, give me the cash on sunday, its all good. Is it for the polo bike? I'll bring an allen key so you can fit it on the spot if you like...

Tell me about it..rob dogs.

Yeah for the polo horse, that would be sound. Nice one. :-)

Also, will be putting up a few items on the main board next week, will pre-empt that here. if anyone likes the sound of anything let me know and I can sort photos out.*

Campag 32 hole low flange front hub with Maillard skewer £10

2nd dibs on Belgiangoth's ITM brake levers.

As Tom has pulled out I think that puts you top of the list, same time/place as the Kingpin?

For Sale: Step-through BSO thing, I'll post a picture. Has 3-speed S-A with all the shifters and stuff (must be worth about £20), Purple Mudguards (maybe £5?), Dynamo lighting from a bottle dynamo (£15?). So with the frame, BB and wheels I reckon it's worth about £50 in parts if nothing else.

Frankly, on recent viewing its biggest issue is a puncture on the front. I don't like it's 3-speed nature, but a light tweak of components and a SS rear and it would be acceptable.

Not sure where to post this, but didn't want to start a new thread to point to an existing one... If you've ordered anything from Chain Reaction Cycles in the last month, check your bank statements for dodgy transactions. I've been stung for £70 worth of mobile top ups (now refunded by my bank).

2Squeak, DFP, still on for Saturday?

Looks like he isn't

^Shocker!

Not trying to get the Kingpin from under him, I think he'd pout for a fucking year if I did that

"Dibs" doesn't mean anything. First with money is the buyer.

prob discussing 4 cross gearing.

sorry.

Looks like he isn't

My fault, I failed to distinguish between this weekend and next weekend.

For sale
700C single-speed wheel, old fashioned steel rim and I think its a mallard hub (guess I should check). I bought it as a fixed gear wheel (120 spacing) but it doesn't have a reverse thread. £30?

Pair of Vittoria Rubino tyres, blue, 622-25, used a couple times but spend too much time in my shed. Non folding type, £15 the pair?

622-25 Marathon plus, ridden for less than 2k miles, so good as new really. A heavy tank of a tyre, good for a backup bike than needs reliability above all else. £15?
Also, still available: interruptor levers, Revolution Courier Race (not suitable for those under 5'10" apparently) and 3-speed step-through.
