  • OK ... I'm thinking of buying a bike with gears, the first one I'll have owned since the Pug early mountain bike I had in the 80's. It's all Campag (Super I believe), showbike from 1980, 531, British builder, hardly ever been ridden. Looks as good as new. I've offered £240. Think I'm getting a good deal? Just thought I'd ask to see what you lovely people have to say on the matter. I imagine I'd keep it indoors except for the long rides that have proper hills.

  • campy super record? mmm.... really nice if it's a complete groupset (inc. pedals + hubs)
    sounds like a fair price & it's an investment too!
    [EDIT - But I suspect I pay too much for stuff.. meh.]

  • Making me feel better already, I guess I just looking for approval, sad loser that I am. Thing is we have no room at home, unless I start keeping bikes outside (which may be an option if I can find a little shed to put out the back)

  • Wait a few days and I'll tell you roughly what it would fetch on US ebay:

  • show us picturs, i need to drool on my keybord more

  • sounds like a decent price dude

  • feck! for 1200 dorra I could buy the bike and an AWESOME shed.

    vegans/gears I would but I don't anyone to know what it is in case I they try and find the seller. Thankfully its not on ebay.
    Promise I'll post some pics when I got it safely in my mitts.

  • good deal

  • That sounds like a great deal. I'm jealous.

  • That sounds like a very good deal. Depending on the condition, old Campag parts go for a shit load of cash on ebay. Japanese collectors are very keen on them. They pay a lot more than fiddy dorra.

  • fncken hell.

  • i wonder what i did with that supper old campag derailur...

  • BRM fncken hell.
    Exactly. I went through my old bike bits with a fine tooth comb after seeing that!

  • Jeez, if I'd just scored GBP770 for that I think I'd stand the cost of posting it....

  • i charge them dubble

  • chris crash i wonder what i did with that supper old campag derailur...
