There is some interest in the split but a sale of the full bike will be much better value.
If someone wants/takes frameset and wheels, split will happen. Prices would be:
Frameset (inc. headset): £sold
Wheelset (inc.tyres/tubes and rim tape): £sold
Cranks/BB/Chainring/Chain combo: £sold
Cockpit: £sold
Saddle: £25
S/Post: £sold -

Hi All
I am helping a friend sell this who has left it with me to sell:
58cm Atom track bike (lightweight Reynolds 531 tubing)
Some really lovely detail, lightweight 531 Reynolds tubing, lovely spearpoint lug detail at tube junctions and at BB area. Fast back seat stays, scalloped fork and Columbus track ends.
Sick fadez... I think Matlow's refresher fizzy chews were an inspiration save for the red(!). Cobalt blue->->Green->->Yellow colour way.
Here is the full spec.
Frame: 58cm (58 square geo) Atom, Reynolds 531 lightweight tubing , in Cobalt blue to green to yellow. Thin tubes and beautiful lug detail. Fast back seat stays with Columbus track dropouts. Comes with Shimano STX headset
Fork: Reynolds 531 lightweight tubing (as above). This is NOT drilled. Many workarounds to affix a brake as there is a pilot/guide hole for drilling, you can go clamp on or change out forks.
Chainset: Miche Primato track (165mm) comes with Miche BB, chainring and rear cog (and chain)
Handlebars: 40cm Silver 3ttt Forma SL Ergo Handlebars
Stem: 130cm ITM eclypse stem
Wheelset: Miche Primato hi-flange track hubs laced to Campagnolo Delta(?) 36h rims shod with Schwalbe Ultremo tyres
Seatpost: Silver System ex Alloy seatpost (27.2)
Saddle: Sella Italia Flite (Yellow/Blue matchy matchy)
Pedals: None supplied (potentially could include flats with straps so you can ride away)
Brake: Not drilled (see 'fork' above).
As you can see this is lovely track bike with some nice detailing. Was ordered at Surosa Cycles of Oldham in the 1990's (now defunct). I highly suspect that the bike was custom built by a master builder as the high quality tubes, lugs, geometry and finish are exquisite. There appears to be some information on t'internet to suggest Atom were built by Andy Thompson (name put to A TOM framesets) of Orbit and Falcon marques fame around the same era.
It was mainly used at Manchester velodrome.
The paintwork is in very good condition, there are the usual tiny scrapes and chips but importantly, no dings, dents or crashes on this.
I would like to get £sold for the full bike.
Lots of potential with this whether its as is 90's track bike look , HHSB with thin tubes etc.
I am based in Morden for viewings.
No dibs, just pm please
