In need of pretty much everything for a ratty singlespeed pomp – so that's:

wheelset
chainset
headset
BB
pedals
v brake calipers and levers
short threadless stem
spacers

The friend I'm building this for is in a very low paying job and doesn't have much cash to splash so beater quality sales/cobweb-covered donations preferred and appreciated. Based in SE London, can collect or pay postage. Ta!

This is still available, might be too narrow for the build but perfectly functional. Also have a non-matching free front which is rattier.
Also SE so welcome to come and have a look. Might have free/cheap flat pedals too.

Heya, thanks, that pair of wheels (mismatched is fine) and some flat pedals sound great! Where in SE are you?

Ps when you say too narrow, dyou mean in terms of the tyre it could take?

hoefla in reply to @margot_skidder

Yeah exactly. Think it's a 25 on there now, sure it's fine with 28. I'm in SE6. Will have a look later for pedals.

I have plenty of silver spacers I can send, what clamp size and length stem are you after?

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:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
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

> Quote text by starting lines with >

Mention another user by @username

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

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
