Trying to claw back some of the silly spending that has gone on whilst I am trying to build an "affordable" road bike. The prices are for me to deliver, as long as it is in London zone 1 or 2. I suppose I will be less keen to go a long way from Islington for a few quid than for the bigger items - but basically I am looking for an excuse to "run some errands" on Saturday afternoon. If you would like to pick up that is fine too - I work central (Fetter Lane) so collect from there.
If you would like posting I will add that at cost, but I would prefer to avoid posting which is why I am posting here rather than eBay.
I will add stuff as I get the chance to take pictures.
Dibs followed by PM, we arrange delivery or pickup, then PayPal the listed price - I am happy to cover the fees.
Please tell me if the prices are silly and/or make offers.
First up:
Avid BB5 cable-pull disk brakes. There is everything you need here, the levers, the cables, the calipers, mounts and rotors: SOLD
Seatpost:
A heavy short seat post 27.2mm taken from a Ammaco Monte Carlo: Gone to Ebay
Suntour Hero rear mech. From the same 7 speed Ammaco. Spots of rust, but fully working and all that: Gone to the 'bay
Suntour double front mech, band on, 28.6mm. From the Ammaco again. Spots of rust but all working: Gone to the 'bay
Groupshot:
Time pedals: Gone to Ebay
Sugino chainset. This is a wonder of pressed steel manufacturing. Notice the how the chainguard is literally pressed out of the same disk as the large chainring: £5
Tiagra 4500 2 x 9 shifters. Fully working and lovely, some cosmetic marks where the bike has been (A) stood upside down and (B) leant against walls: SOLD
