For Sale: 2 Bikes, Lots of Parts, Lots of Fun

Evening all,

In a tragic twist of fate I'm being forced to move house. As part of this spatial downsizing, I am forced to relinquish two bicycles and various small parts to you, the braying mob, in exchange for coin. All these pieces of my former self are collectible/deliverable to/from Blackheath, Tottenham Court Road-ish or Kensington.

All items are numbered and I will try to supply an apt modicum of detail, but if you have any questions I'm sure that you will not hesitate in posing them.

11) SR Royal quill

Dunno much about it. 80mm in the length, 26 in the girth. Only £GONE

12) Zenith quill stem

I only ever slipped this guy in once for a few minutes, so beyond the oil at the bottom, it's never been used. The great thing is the A-Head style clamp. It's 26mm and I think 90 or 100 in length. £GONE

13) Standard Fuji A-Head stem

31mm clamp, 100mm in length. it's **£FREE with anything else **if you ask.

17) SOMA pursuit bar

Pursuity with a 410mm of pursuit one way and 26mm the other. Barely used so if you scrub away the grip tape marks for 5 minutes and you'll find the purest of pursuitiest pursuit bars you'll ever buy for only £GONE

*18) Mavic pursuit bars. *

Very much in demand, once. Beautiful dark grey, scratched in a sort of 'I bet there's a story there somewhere, after a few drinks and passing homoeroticism' kind-of-way. There's also drilling for internal cabling and 26mm of clamp and 42cm of stretch. £GONE I love you man.

*Fuji track bars. *

These guys were involved in a crash so there's a load of scraping and rips on the right had side. As long as you tape over them though, they're perfect. £5

*CInelli 1A / System ex stem/bar combo. *

I can't tell whether the clamp bolt is knackered or whether I just haven't got the right allen key. So the two of them come together for £GONE

*19) Tange Seiki LN-7922 BB *

Sony PS2 and loadsa games

£GONE

Pro Lite Rosas

Double fixed, front wheel bearings are grindy and I think the back is a bit buckled. Good for beaters or polo though.** £GONE**

MKS single straps

a little used, but still good £GONE

Generic white double straps

a little used, but still good £GONE

Wall hanging plates

These guys let you hang your bikes off the wall, I've been using two stacked, which mean I can get three bikes on one wall. (One on the ground, one above that, and one above that.) This is because they let the bike angle and thus overlap. Once you figure them out they're amazing. I have two to sell, screws included. £GONE

That's all folks.

Well done sir on a lovely listing!

Does the Dia-Compe BRS 101 have a hex nut or allen key fitting?

It is an allen key, I also have two different lengths of nut for whatever style of fork you're running.

Hey, interested in both brakes, mks pedals and zenith stem (7,8,9 and 12). What price is the zenith quill stem? Also I am guessing tommmmmmm is taking the long reach one, but worth a shout.

It is an allen key, I also have two different lengths of nut for whatever style of fork you're running.

Ideally I'm after a hex nut fitting, do you have a bolt that would be long enough to go behind a fork that isn't drilled for an allen key?

Any chance you would post the brooks tape? I can't be arsed with eloquent prose to match your ad as I've launched a load of cider down my screech......

Hey, if you have shims I'll take black/silver dirt harry..

2nd dips peddles and bar tape

Sent pm

Those mavic bars are ringing my bells sir would you do £20 for pick up tomorrow in kensington/tott court road?

That gold finger is some filthy sexy shit

Loving the Puch! How tall are you? Wondering if my 6''3 self will be able to fit.

No 2 has character and some good parts to boot - bargain!

Well-written listing. What size is the Puch?

pm you for mavic persuit bar.

I kid they're all yours ^^

Second dibs on bar tape if able to post.

The bolt is just a little on the generous side of 5cm with 2cm of thread at the top. And yes, there is also a hex bolt option.

Hi there. Apologies, the zenith well set you back 15 squids and tommm (etc.) has current first dibs on the 101 but you're next in line.

Absolutely, for a small supplement and as long as it's within reach of Royal Mail.

I absolutely do have the shims. How would you like to take them?

Hey, if you have shims I'll take black/silver dirt harry..

shut your mouth.

I just happen to be 6"2 myself! I imagine it would fit you like a glove, an exterior glove with wheels.
