Birmingham Trades & Sales

for the fixed cog see this thread. I've bought from that guy before.

What ratio are you planning to run?

I have a new 16t, and 22t if I recall.

Also a couple miche/sugino ones that use 2 part carrier system. Cannot remember how many teeth though.

Ok I am interested. How much would you want to sale the 16t ?

Stu the ratio will be 44/16. Which i think is good enough ?

That seems like a sensible gear ratio.

How about £6 ?

Endura Zyme II 3/4 shorts, grey, XL, worn once (bought wrong size like a numpty. I love these things - mega tough and comfortable. RRP £53, £25 (http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=71490)

2 x 26 x 1.4" slicks, Kenda so nothing special, bit cut up from glass, but plenty of life left. £5 each, or £8 for the pair.

Just snapped my crank like a beast! I was like...

Has anyone got a spare chainset (square taper) kicking around, preferably with a 47ish tooth chainring?

yes, i haz one for sells, 15 squids. black, truvativ, available tomorrow evening.

what teefz bro?

i think 44ish.....but can't be arsed to go outside and check now, i have cats sitting on me.

OK great, 44 would be the same as what I have now but slightly bigger would only be an advantage. What time is good tomorrow eve?

For Sale: Barry Hoban

More photos here

Full spec. on request, but this is a Barry Hoban 'Champion du Monde' from about 1960, has 59/60cm seat tube, 12 gears. The rack, box and front mudguard are not included, but have been pictured to show what you can do with it. This bike has carried everything from a 24 crate of beer to my weekly shopping, comfortably and quickly. A perfect touring bike or beater for the larger gentleman. Some rust, as expected for a bike of this age, caused by the previous owner (been kept in the shed all the time I've had it). £100

The price reflects the time and general ball-ache I had to put in to unseize the bottom bracket, get out a stuck seatpost, adapt a chainring to replace the outer as it is an odd size BCD and have some equally unique sized chainring bolts made by an engineering company. As well as a general overhaul of the brakes, gears and hubs

Could i have a closer look Stu one evening in the week, would be perfect for going to work on. Mountain bikes are not really commuting friendly...

Too tall for you lad.

just done the maths..dammit..oh well...

What? No storage/portage system? The bike is nothing without that.

Yeah, I think you'd need to be 6 foot plus for it to be comfortable
