If only I was moving in somewhere with more space... Gorgeous bike, glws

Would pay money to see this happen again, always funny when karma comes calling

Didn't mean to start an argument haha, the guy was no where near me at the time, just some knob who got angry for no reason on a nice sunny morning

I'll give them a go, cheers!

Off uni at the mo so I cycled over to my Grandma's house in Twickenham this morning to help her build some IKEA furniture, someone on a Cannondale roadie had a go at me for the skid I did going down the hill into Northcote Road to stop for the traffic lights... Something about how fixie skidders are ruining the road and it's dangerous to ride without brakes. The amusing part is I run a very obvious front brake with a big fuck off orange leaver, some people clearly just want to find things to get angry at and won't use any logic around it.

Moving up to Bow/Victoria Park area in a few weeks, whats around up there in terms of LBS? Don't really think BLB quite fits the bill ;)

Dibs on the yellow Frame, can come tomorrow morning to collect!

Yeah undibs from me, go for it nick

2nd dibs for a friend if Matt isn't interested

Pictures not working!

Friend of mine is looking for a new bike/frame, she's 5'3" so between a 49-52cm frame would probably be needed, doesn't want to spend more than £150 ish on the full bike. Apart from that, no real preference

Cheers

Max

EDIT: Just spoke to her, she'd prefer just the frame rather than a complete bike, and apparently "Yellow or Purple would be nice, but not required"

Shoes still there?

@Joni_Doe @billygoat28
Pickup from SE23

I'd rather not ship, but if no one else wants it in the next day or so it's yours

170mm, no idea what your other question is asking sorry haha

Trek 1000 Frame 49cm

A little beaten up, includes everything you see in the photo

£50

"Gazelle" Vintage Frame
Stickers say Champion Mondial, however I get the feeling they're lying, more likely an old Peugeot frame based on some of the lugging.
Admittedly it's quite beaten up and I don't think the brakes work properly
Would make a good project, I think a lot of the components are original bar probably the wheels

I think it's 60cm, I can double check later

Asking £40, literally just need to clear it out of the shed, it takes up way too much space

Moved back home from uni over the weekend and was instantly put on Bike Shed clear out, so here we go

Prices could be way off but I feel like this is all pretty cheap anyway

Mavic Aksium Rear Wheel with Skewer: £40?

Fairly old but not ridden much, still run true, brake track still straight

Suginio Pista Square Taper Cranks: £15

Tapers and Thread still fairly good, great beater cranks

25.4mm Silver Seatpost: £10

Usual zigzags further down, fairly clean higher up

42cm c-c Bullhorn Bars: £5

Pretty scratched up, still perfectly functional. Drilled for brake cables on the outsides.

Singlespeed Freewheel: £3, or free with anything else

650c Mavic Open4CD with tyres: £15

Good for a Lo Pro, have some spokes cut to vaguely the right length which I can throw in as well

Halflink Chain: Free
Very covered in oil and in a bag, probably in a few pieces. Just take this away from me please

If you need any more pictures of anything let me know :)

Anyone got any ideas for mounting bikes upright on a wall without screwing anything in? Moving in to a new flat and not sure the landlord would be too happy with a few new holes in the wall...

Dibs on the MD-515s, PMed :)

Dibs restraps, pm-ing now :)

I can vouch for that dia compe clamp on brake, got it for an old undrilled track frame I have and works perfectly

As for gearing, it really depends on where you're riding. I ride mainly in London where it's nice and flat, and 48x17 works wonders for me, but maybe if you're new to fixed a slightly smaller ratio would be nicer

Gorgeous, anyone got an ID on the frame?

I was thinking more along the lines of some alleycats

Dibs, my dad's been looking for a pair of silly carbon wheels for a while now, these fit the bill perfectly. I'll PM now :)
