  • What drop are the brakes roughly?

  • Brake Drop 55-80mm.

    Seatpost (item 5) spoken for

  • any news on the brake fittings? are the calipers still available? dibs if so..

  • Sorry - brakes went to euanryan
    Saddles (1, 3, 4), pedals (7), paperboy light (8) and chainset (9) are all that remains


  • Saddles 3 & 4 gone to Rockatansky - All that remains now is Monster Saddle 1, Pedals 7, and paperboy light (chainset went out with recycling on Tuesday).

    I've also got an Ultegra Octalink Bottom bracket (BS thread, 68mm, 109.5 Axle) - Missing the loose "cup", a rear BMX hub (think it's a 48H, will confirm tomorrow) and a silver-solder your own headset kit - missing the headset clamp bit, so you'll have to buy your own (Ceeway are shifting them for £17 + VAT & Delivery) alternatively you could solder or braze it direct to stainless bars (e.g. http://www.greenwich-market-trader.co.uk/shpItem.php?ITM=13&CUR=GBP&ARG=1&LOC=DE&LAG=en )to make a kind of vintage-look Klein mission control (http://velobikeshop.com/images/sized/images/uploads/DSC_0063-200x133.JPG)
    Anyway - I'll whack a bunch of photos onto this post tomorrow

    Yours for the cost of postage - it's getting too dark to ride into town from windsor after work!

  • As stated in my previous post - here's the build your own stainless aheadstem kit - minus the bar clamp - new clamps available from Ceeway for £17, or silver solder to your own stainless bar, or a Sakae stainless mtb bar!
    And here's the Ultegra octalink - minus the loose cup - BS threads, 68mm housing
    Both items - yours for the cost of postage
