It's with great sadness that I'm going to sell my lovely lugged steel Flanders bike. I bought this frame as NOS a couple of years ago and I've used it with great success in various guises in that time. It's a very versatile frameset which has allowed me to use it as a TT bike, singlespeed (semi horizontal dropouts) and a road bike. It's currently in a TT bike format. More details from my recent "current projects" thread below:

In essence I'd prefer to sell it as a whole bike for ease (I'm near Maidstone, but could personally deliver in most of the SE if required), but would consider splitting if there were enough interest in the various bits.
In summary:
Flanders lugged steel frame (51cm horizontal top tube).
Chris King 1" ahead headset (pink)
Zeus carbon fork
HED disc with 7 speed 13/21 screw on freehub
HED deep section front wheel with bladed spoke
(both wheels with crudely modified "NED" logos - easily returned to HED logos by removing the electrical tape)
Both wheels are tubular with Ritchey "Race Slick" tubs fitted (tubs in good condition)
Syntace bullhorn bars and C2 aero bars (with new Fizik "Trigel" pads fitted) - nice colour :-)
Thomson layback 410mm black 27.2mm seatpost (or layforward if you prefer!)
SRAM Rival brakes
Bontrager aero brake levers
Truvativ Rouleur GXP crankset with SRAM GXP BB (Italian)
Dura Ace 54T TT chainring (I have the 53 ring that came with the Truvativ chainset too if prefer - the inner is a 39 btw)
Shimano 600 rear mech. I think it's referred to as a "tricolour" model
SRAM X8 99 8 speed chain
Shimano 7 speed down tube shifters (I have a pair, but only the rear is fitted).
I'd like to keep the saddle and pedals.
At the moment the shifting is a little "interesting". It's restricted to 6 of the 7 sprockets as the mech touches the disc if it goes into the 7th gear. As you will see from the "current projects" thread, people do seem to this that this issue can be sorted.
How does £575 delivered (depending on location) sound? Or PM me with offers for the bits of interest so I can consider splitting. Thanks, Damian. Pics below (including some of the bike in other "clothing" in case you're only interested in the frameset):
