That dc frame is too expensive

haggle!

My friend Benny is selling his SE Pk Ripper x DC Shoes colabo frame, forks and headset. £350 asking price. Size 54.

Message me if you're interested and i'll pass you on to him.

I've rode it it's quite nice, you can buy a complete one for £450 now I'll offer him £200

Thought i'd offer her up here first to hopefully avoid having to post.

53cm Seattube
Proper 90's paint job. Cromoly. This would make for a perfect winter hack (wrong time of year I know) or just plain year round beater. Due to large clearences, mudguard eyelets and general robustness. Semi-horizontal dropouts mean a little bit of movement - I found a magic gear on it - with a half link you'll have quite a few options. Nearly new sealed BB - headset recently regreased. It's a lovely metallic pink. (hard to show in photos) Paint has a few chips here and there but i've re-sprayed the worst offending bit's to keep it protected. I've got a pair of SKS mudguards i'll chuck in if anyone wants.

£40 ONO

Freecycle : Viscount Titanium railed saddle, its a bit worn in places but was a pretty comfy saddle when I used it on my mtb.
Its not a particularly light saddle despite having ti rails.

Is the TT lever externally routed?

yes it is

Saving up for a new camera, so selling a few things. For starters, got a Bontrager SSR wheelset taken off my 2007 Trek 7.5 FX. The front is in reasonable condition, the rear needs a new spoke and truing up. The rear was replaced under warranty in 2009 so has done less miles than the front.

I think they're about 30mm deep, and 24/20 spoke if I remember correctly. Need a clean, no cassette - £40?

How much do you reckon the new spoke and fitting would cost?

Um, my local place charges about £10 to fit a spoke and true the wheel. A replacement spoke and nipple should be no more than £2 if you wanted to do it yourself.

Oh, they're not some kind of special spoke then? I'll have a word with the mrs and see if she wants them for her bike. Can I dibs till this evening?

Oh right, sorry... no they're standard spokes, nothing aero etc.
