Dolan Track Champion frame, 52cm - DAMAGED, £50?
This frame hasn't been crashed but has developed a large crack around the BB shell on the drive side, and a smaller one on the non drive side through normal usage. Sadly its outside of warranty. In its current state it is not safe for use on track or road, but should be fine for rollers/turbo use. There is also a small crack by the seat clamp which has been there since I purchased it, and hasn't caused any issue. Otherwise the frame is fine, with only cosmetic marks. Sale is for frame and FSA headset in good condition.
3T Funda fork, 172mm steerer, £70
Great quality straight blade full carbon fork as pictured above. Lovely fork - light, stiff and comfy. Steerer is cut to 172mm so is for short headtubes only! To give you a rough idea, I had this on the Dolan above, which has a 107mm headtube, integrated headset and allowed for 20mm of spacer with a thomson stem. Its in great condition with only a couple of small marks to the paint as photographed below. Weight is 327g with the steerer at this length, will do a shot on the scales if you really care. I'll pop the crown race off at work tomorrow. Takes a normal carbon fork expander.
700x32c Schwalbe Marathon tyre, £15
Super hard wearing tyre with some of the best puncture protection available. I had this on the back of a trick build I had very briefly, so it really didn't get much use at all. Less than 100 miles on it I'd guess, you could pretty much pass it off as new - I've heard you can get up to 5000 miles out of these. No picture atm, sorry.
Shimano Tiagra brake calliper, short drop, £10
Good quality Shimano brake calliper in silver, clean and in good working condition and next to no cosmetic wear. Suits most road forks, but not ones with larger tyre/mudguard clearances. I have a short recessed bolt attached the moment but might be able to swap it out for a longer one from work should you need it.
Tektro RL721 crosstop levers, 31.8, £10
These levers will fit onto oversize drops right up to the stem clamp. You can use them inline as crosstops with brake hoods/STIs (good for cyclocross) or as a standalone brake lever. I have been using the left hand one for exactly this, the right hand lever is unused. 1 bolt fixing with hinged clamp so super easy to remove - perfect for riding to the track.
Single aero brake lever, £5
unbranded, single aero brake lever for bullhorns/pursuit bars. Doesn't look fancy but does the job well.
Carbon fork expander, £5
Basic M-Part fork expander, works with a single bolt that tensions the headset and expanders the device as the same time. 1 1/8 carbon (effect?) topcap included.
16T track sprocket, Coffee
Came free with a set of wheels from Varno. New and unused.
Canon EF 17-40L f4 lens,** £350**
A fantastic, professional quality lens for Canon users. Makes for a good normal zoom on a crop sensor, or an outstanding wide zoom on a full frame body. This has been in my bag longer than any other piece of Canon kit as it really is an excellent lens. Check some reviews if you've any doubt.
This lens has some scratches and wear to the body as can be expected. When I first bought it, it had a few small marks on the front element - I bought it on the premise that this would not impact the image quality, and it has not. All the digital work on my website was shot with this lens. I'm happy to send some full res crops to give you an idea, or alternatively come and try it out for yourself and you can take a look at the results.
Comes with rear cap and hood, but no lens cap. Normally these sell for around £450, but because of the cosmetic marks to the body and lens, I'll sell for £350.
