For Sale: Mixte frame, forks, general bike parts clear out...

I can't cycle any more so I'm selling all the stuff that's been sitting in a corner (for at least a year) taunting me. (Boo hoo!)

Prefer collection from Manchester for bigger stuff. Postage is 2nd class (with proof of postage) unless stated otherwise. Happy to combine to save on postage - just ask. You're welcome to dibs here but (s)he who PMs and sends funds first wins.

27 x 1 1/4 Rigida Super Chronic Rims on Maillard Hubs (5 speed)
Bought these from Varno a couple of years ago I think. Quite charming and in reasonably good nick considering the age. Front wheel chrome is good, back wheel less so. Both spin freely and...um...truly.

£30 (+ £10 courier (less if poss))

(rear)

I can provide better pics if required.

27 x 1 1/4 on maillard hubs with new tyres and inners (5 speed)
Taken off a Raleigh Silhouette. Spin true but feel a little gritty so could probably do with a tiny bit of grease on the bearings. Bit of surface rust adds to the character. New tyres and inner tubes. With a bit of love could be good solid beater wheels.

£10 (+ £10 courier (or less if poss))

**

Raleigh Silhouette Mixte small frame**
Never been used. Has a few marks from storage and one of the stickers has started to peel a bit but otherwise in perfect condition. Top tube equivalent length approx 50cm and seat tube measures approx 56cm. Seatpost and bolt included.

£25 (+ £15 courier)

**
Raleigh 1" Forks**
I bought these thinking they would fit the frame but they are too short. Steerer tube = 15cm, threaded = 3cm. A few scratches to paintwork but in surprisingly good condition considering age.

£10 (+£3 postage)

**New VeloPlush Saddle **(definitely built for comfort)
A couple of light marks on black plastic from storage otherwise factory fresh.

£15 (+ £3 postage)

Chrome 1" forks
In good condition, only one obvious small scratch. Steerer tube = 17cm, threaded = 9cm.

If I've got any prices very wrong please feel free to kvetch about it below.

I've got some wheels to flog too but I need a lie down after all that so will post later.

That's a sad set of circumstances for a for sale thread. Good luck with your sales and I hope one day you ride again!

Cheers! :)

Lovely paws!

Think the seat post is more likely to be 26.8 ...

Oops! You's right. :)

Dibs the cat!

Whatcha got?

Dibs-ing on the mudguards if HarryB doesn't take them...sending a pm now.

Is the frame still available?

Scilly, I've got two sets of 27" wheels one a bit more fancy than the other. I'll try to get some details up tomorrow.

Adam, second dibs noted.

Bidnod, I haven't heard from PeterMaxwell. You can have second dibs and I'll chase him up to see if the tentative dibs becomes any firmer.

No sorry guys i'm out.

I'd be interested in a set of 27" wheels. Will keep an eye out for more details.

Thanks for letting me know, Peter. All yours then, bidnod, if you're still interested.

Flannimal (great name!) - weekend has run away with me - will get some photos ready for the morrow.

If bidnod doesn't take it then I will 100% have it from you.
