Few bits: Royal Nuevo (NJS), Campag, ITM, System Ex...
Few bits for sale, pics to follow tomorrow as I'm on infant duty tonight and unlikely to get a chance (and/or lazy)...
Pedals
MKS Royal Nuevo + Clips (L) and BLB single straps
Posh beater condition as-is, but will easily clean up to 'posh-ish'. Priceless NJS stamps on both metal bits, cheap BLB stamp on the leather. I say priceless, in this instance we're looking at £75 for the lot.
Campagnolo Athena pedals with original cages and single straps
All original and lovely (if a little grubby) condition. Again, will clean up lovely, but I'm not using them, so I haven't bothered... Clips are adjustable and straps are original(!) too. Lovely things, which I think are worth 50 of somebody's pounds.
Cockpit
System Ex track drops
Good condition, one side wrapped in cloth tape, the other isn't. If that's useful to know... £15.
Titanium ITM stem
130mm - truly lovely thing. Mint condition and, accordingly, worth £20 IMO.
There's probably more I'm forgetting about as well, in which case I'll add it to the thread later!
Collection on Mill Road, or can potentially deliver, within reason.
Finally, thinking about parting with the lo pro. For sellz will be frame, forks and front + rear wheels. White Industries eccentric hub means you can fixie the shit out of the vertical dropouts and the front wheel will do plenty more miles before it needs replacing. I'll chuck in the tyres too - almost brand new Zaffiros with lots of tread.
WI hub alone is easily worth £100+ and the frame is a custom 653 fillet brazed masterpiece, so I'm thinking £400 for the lot (which I'd like to sell together) but we can discuss splitting, should you only want certain bits...
F&F measure up as 56c-c, 60 c-t, top tube 56 c-c (effective), but I'm 6 ft and they're a good fit for me. Probably equivalent to a 56-57cm, but you never can tell with a lo pro!
And now for the bad bits... I've ridden this bike HARD through two winters and the paint shows the usual chips and there are a couple of spots of rust to the chrome, but it polishes up VERY NICELY and the colour makes up for a lot when seen in the flesh. I can clean it up before sale, but it's currently my daily ride, so will need some notice in order to strip down for sale. The ST has been repaired at the seat clamp at some point, which isn't cosmetically great (rusty!) but it's structurally sound. See below for the obligatory picture.
