Hey folks, I'm trying to make a coasterbrake bike on the cheap. So i'm looking for:

-A coasterbrake wheelset or rear wheel (deep v would be nice but will consider anything)
-A front brake caliper (cheaper the better, not wanting to spend over a tenner really)
-1" threaded or threadless forks (steel, CF, alu, whatever? - looking to spend around £25 max on these)
-Any other bits, maybe some nice chrome risers or some nice old cranks?

Let me know what you've got!

Ideally I want chrome or silver parts, no black :)

Also, i would need it all posted to Nottingham

Cheers folks!

oh sorry. headtube's 110mm, so i guess anything over 130mm or so (if threaded). unthreaded, maybe 160mm+?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
