eBay and Craigslist finds

Annoyingly that is what's stopping me bidding. If it ain't what it says it is, who knows what it is?!

I also emailed asking for close up of the forks as they should be embossed with a Gazelle logo if real. The reply was 'make me an offer please'.

yeah, he doesn't reply to my e-mails either. thanks for posting this.

been watching this for a few days, you could sell the parts and get the frame for free. c record crank, delta brakes, campag crono rims, + top spec gazelle frame. id do it but bought way too much lately.

Colourful forks.

why is he a cunt ?
isn't just trawling around the country buying all the frames he can from jumbles from people who cant be bothered to ebay the things themselves ?
Surely he's just doing good business not being a cunt. Please correct me if i'm wrong.

Another bad experience here - I purchased what seemed like a very reasonably-priced custom bike with a good build kit, but it turned out it had been absolutely hammered, with the BB stuck in the shell and every part hanging on for by a thread. I got some money back in the end, but I just shouldn't have purchased it in the first place.

I checked his review and he only have 5 bad feedback, how did he managed to keep it at that when the number of people who complain in this topic exceeded 5?

well, it is worth the price he brought it for in the first place (between £5 to £50).

That's the bike shop on the Archway Road.

The 600 gruppo looks a wee bit later than 1980. My Aerospace had 600EX in 1980/81 and it was the old "Arabesque" pattern.

nice vintage chrome jobby from brisvegas, 56cm pity teenslain is back

this final price seems cheap even accounting for overseas shipping.

I also saw a Titanium peugeot bike outside Condor every now and then, pity the owner tend to leave it there for a couple or more days.

ive thought about stealing that. its sometimes locked up for weeks, ive never seen the owner though.

i hope it is abandoned though

NICE, Full campag, Reynolds special lightweight tubing- will go for some £'s me thinks.

i have one of those i think.

you think?

you think?

a while ago i was promised first refusal on one that i am sure looked like that. i had seen it once but my conversation with the person was about another bicycle so i didnt pay that much attention to it. i just remember thinking it didnt look ike the average peugot that you see there was something about the lugs maybe. i'll post a pic when i get it.

Colnago Super with Campy SR groupset. A couple of hours to go and only £210...

I was very tempted myself to have a punt seeing as its my size but i don't think getting another bike would go down well with her indoors ;-)

52cm bb to top, and 58cm top tube c/c. Is a 58cm top tube large for a 52cm frame?

been thinking about this. 52 and 58 does sound odd. Does anybody think that is right? Is is just built for somebody with long arms and/or short legs?
