• I'm looking for something to hang from the wall of my mancave.

    I'm skint and not at all bothered about something of 'interest' or 'value'. So ideally I'm looking for something free, or as close to as possible (I'm up north, so would likely have to pay for postage, but I can manage that).

    So the perfect bike would be one with a structurally damaged frame that appears okay cosmetically, that looks nice with components in good nick but not worth enough to warrant splitting/selling. Looks nice, worth nothing. Vintage, steel road bike, 700c or 27", lugged, downtube shifters, drop bars. That's about it. Paint isn't a concern, but the cleaner/shinier the components the better. I don't doing some polishing and a quick paint job, but would rather not have to start buying seperate bits here and there and turning this into a project, so really would prefer something complete.

    Might be asking for the moon on a stick, but anything out there?

  • I can offer you some dreams for free, anything else will cost you money one way or another.

    Your local tip or skip may produce something to your liking, many bargains to be found there

    Just occasionally you'll see a bargain on flea bay or bumtree too

  • and freecycle.....excuse the pun
