  • don't get excited, nothing flash here but all for nowt, provided you can come and pick up.

    bars:
    anatomic drops (no idea what make) with some bontrager tape, given to me but now I'm fully Nitto'd up don't need them anymore.
    some cannondale flat bars, cut down a bit perfectly good.
    some .243 Racing chromoly jump bars, for 22.2 stems (like bmx) but could be shimmed, heavy but bombproof

    front wheel: old steel Rigida 700c on malliard hub with QR, bearings need greasing but it's true enough..Ideal for polo bike, maybe with cardboard disc!

    take 'em away or it's the binnage

  • what size are the drops (clamp size)?

    if so i'll have them if they're free please :)

  • the wheel please!!
    can i?

  • drops clamp 26mm

  • edmundane the wheel please!!
    can i?

    indeed you can, provided you can pick up from Tooting

  • whisper me where in tooting i'll come and get it :)

  • dang...

    anyone got any other black drops they want to give me??

  • sadly the drops aren't going to fit :( thanks for the very kind offering though rpm.

  • there ya go, all bars still available

  • did cultralelite want them?? if he doesnt,il take em!:)

  • I've got another frame (still building up my first) and was going to use it for that, but just had a tonne of work dropped on me and some deadlines shifted so the second bike project is going on pause for now....

    I'll submit the drops to Aidan

    I'll wait till i'm ready to pick up the project again before I start nabbing stuff...

  • thanks!!
    rpm if the flat bars arnt taken,il take them off your hands....you can never have to many bars:)

  • gotta spare pair of flat bars going chopped to a reasonable length..free
    and 2 sets of brakes ...f+b

  • hi murtle, what brakes are those? and what do you want for them?
    maybe we should move this to the let's trade thread...

  • 31trum(murtle) gotta spare pair of flat bars going chopped to a reasonable length..free
    and 2 sets of brakes ...f+b

    Ccan i have the flat bar & the front brake if edmundane doesnae want em?
    Can pick up...
    Have some ourys ready n waiting...

  • i might be hasty with front brake only took it off yesterday........will write in the "lets trade" with a description when i get to work.

  • Ok, to recap:

    wheel= edmundane
    drops and flat bars= aidan

  • i know you have already promised the wheel to someone but my front wheel is really un true and itsw not stainless so i dont even want to attempt truing it incase some of the old spokes brake. i live in streatham so could come and pick the wheel up any time, my school is in tooting. please reconsider, i am a broke student!

  • haha, come on students are never that broke :P

    plus you've clearly only joined lfgss because you've seen this thread, as your post count is one, and rpm has already given it to edmundane.

  • can i have the straight bars?

  • yeah i have only just joined, but why does that make my request any less valid, if anything it shows i could really do with a new wheel. but oh well, i can always save up for one or somthing

  • Join freecycle, watch ebay, visit second hand stores.. it'll only cost you a week's worth of beers (maybe a day if you're me.. £34 for 3 glasses of wine.. WTF?!?!)

  • cheaper to buy the bottle pommy!

  • danger joel yeah i have only just joined, but why does that make my request any less valid, if anything it shows i could really do with a new wheel. but oh well, i can always save up for one or somthing

    I could really do with quite a few things but I'm still working my arse off to save up for them. To be fair, just give it a go at truing it up and if some spokes break just go an buy another one for 50p. It's not very hard to do at all if you have at least some common sense (visit sheldon brown's web site for help).

    hippy - bloody hell, over £11 a glass! where the hell was that?

  • yeah i know i can do all that but i thought i might as well ask, im gonna try and true the wheel and probably will look on other sites aswell. eeehhh, i dont know why you you feel the need to have a go at me "I could really do with quite a few things but I'm still working my arse off to save up for them." whats that about? why am i somehow lazy simply because i asked for a free front wheel.
