I now squat about straps, so any help is welcome.

Oops, oops, oops. I've just bought, and paid, for this;

Not sure when I can pick it up.
I'm waiting for the seller to call about collection. Anyone in Nottingham (with space) here who could grab it for me?

tobyprice is part of the Nottingham massive.

I will be up there in a couple of weeks, but saddle have no where to store, and no way to transport.

that looks like a lot of fun

I haven't ridden a tandem for about 20 years. It will be a whole load of fun when I get it sorted out.
Might try a PM to tobyprice.

perfect start for a lovely fixed road bike

What does "pignon fixe 15 dents" mean in french?

15 tooth fixed cog at a guess

Wheel rather than cog, but yeah.

Danb is spot on actually

Good, better than what we would call 15 dents!

Am I the only one who thinks the flying gate is ugly?

Nope... I recognise that there is some historical significance, but I think they look a bit shit.

cheap unusual fork, he will ship to uk for 9 euros

^^ good forks if they are what I think they are.

Have them on my bike, you can find the same on some tomassini's etc.

Columbus with aero crown. Pretty heavy though.

£105 and 20min to go

This went for £113!

Flying gate looks like shit! I would imagine it is also pretty heavy.

Neither's true... do some reading.

Being yellow they look more like weinmann dp18, which are hugely cheaper.
Rigida ones are pretty rare.

One of my friends have a yellow Rigida DP18 on his road Battaglin... was actually looking for a matching rim for his rear wheel... :( guess i'll end up using a deepv.
