Moving house so clearing out some bike stuff I've accumulated over the years.
1 Hi-Gear Brakeset. Bought this ages ago for a restoration project that never happened. Unused. Comes with hoods and cables and stuff.
1 awful(ly comfortable) looking saddle. Think this was my dad's. Suits the more gentle rider.
1 new front wheel built by @Vince. Decided against using it on my fixie as I remove the front wheel when locking up my bike. Comes with Michelin tyre.
1 very old Mavic Aksium Race front wheel. Used on the turbo bike. Then used it to practise trueing wheels. No real brake surface left.
1 old handbuilt wheel. Shimano 600 hub (still fairly smooth) with Mavic MA40 rim. Still some brake surface left. Has a Giant SLR 2 tyre on it.
Need all this gone job lot only as moving house. All for free/beer please :) If not gone it's just going to go to bike part heaven.
Collection SW15.

Cool, I've found the stolen bikes section! I've posted this up in suspicious ads section but will flag it up here too.

This just rings all sorts of alarm bells. Hopefully bringing this up might help someone. This seller also has many other suspicious ads.
I started messaging him (most definitely not to buy) to find out more. Yeah. Suspicious.

A bit of background: I'm that one bike friend everyone has.
Sourced the bike off gumtree a while ago for a friend getting into cycling. He locked it up outside a Sainos and someone tried to nick it in what is quite honestly the dumbest way possible.
They tried to saw the top tube. W. T. F.
Having not in anyway successfully stolen the bike, they left it (probably with a shed load of carbon particles in their lungs, teehee).
I rebuilt a new bike using the parts that were on it, and now just left with this painful momento of locking bikes up in London (Peckham, to be more precise.).
The frame is a 56 I think, if that even matters at all. The forks are actually in good nick, and worth a little I guess?! 1 1/8 - 1 1/2 I think these are. There's also a BB and some barrel adjusters still as part of the frame. But you can have the whole package for free. I taped over the problematic area, only removing it to take pics. Will tape over again if anyone actually wants this. The weave is pretty cool though not gonna lie.
If anyone wants to save this all from going to bike heaven/hell, please do so before I can be bothered to visit the tip.
