I have some black 44 cinelli eubios bars- I think they might be 26 and not 6.4, but a search might confirm that.
They are in E10.

^ Monsieur Bump, thank you so much for the information!
If you can get any pictures up of the Rolls I'll be super tempted.
And yes, I'm thinking that 8 speed might indeed be the way to go, as there seem to be so many affordable parts.

^ Thanks for the kind offer but I need 25c or 28c tyres, as I'm really hurting on these roads at the moment. But I'm sure someone will appreciate your tyres.
As for folding a wire-bead tyre, the much revered Sheldon Brown (may he rest in peace) has the answer: http://sheldonbrown.com/video/tire-folding.html

This would make a good current project thread!
I'll need the following items posted to my friend in the UK, then she'll post them to me in Kenya.
**13cm quill stem: **£10 - £15 budgetI've found a nice Cinelli Oyster stem in 120mm.
~~
**44cm bars: **~~£10 - 15 budget
Found some lovely bars.
**STIs& cassette & chain:** £50 - 70ish budgetUPDATE: I've found some 600 Tricolour STIs, so I'm running 8 speed! Still need the cassette and chain, can pay about £20 max.
Front road hub: £10 - £20 budget
With 16/20/24 holes, please!
Rolls saddle: £20ish budget
I'm not too picky here, as long as it's a Rolls!
25c - 28c tyres (pair): £20ish budget
Something in this width range for the poor road conditions here. Ideally quite lightweight too.
Bar tape: £5ish budget
Black is the only sensible option.
Kool Stop salmon brake pads: - - - OR - - - Shimano brake pad holders:£5-10 budgetI found two pairs of Clarks Shimano brake pad holders for a nice £7.50.
Pinarello Decals: £10 budget

My project
The parts are for a Pinarello Stelvio purchased here in Nairobi for Ksh13,000 (£95.33). Whilst it was a bloody lucky find, it needs some work, as:
