to be fair, i saw this on reddit too, where the person said it is thrown together with spare parts to see what it might look like - even so, aside from the stem i reckon its pretty sick!

.

@AE86 @ao1989 thanks for the offer guys, I've sorted it now, but always appreciative of the generosity of strangers on this sub (:

Yeah man thats what I mean about the coin trick, you can use a square taper puller if you block the hollow axle hole with a 5p coin (:

I need a crank puller fairly sharpish, I know they are cheap online but I don't really want to wait for postage, wondering if anyone here (preferably in south london) has one for sale/one I can borrow, or more usefully, the name of a local bikeshop that sells them to save me a 'cycle tour of south london bike shops' trying to find one haha

Cheers!

@Dogtemple @ffm yeah the problem is I lack any crank puller! haha. Seemed to have lost it which is perplexing me slightly, I guess I'll have to commit to the online purchase, only halfords seems to sell them in store but theirs are crap in my experience

I need a bog standard crank puller, one that has the wider end to remove hollow isis/octalink cranks.

I'm 25% posting this to see if anyone in SE could lend me one, and 75% seeing if anyone in SE could tell me a bike shop where I can go buy one to save time on postage etc - some bike shops only sell product product and some only do servicing/repairs etc, and sometimes specific tools like this fall between that gap, but its hard to tell via the internet and I can't be bothered to go on a 'bikeshops of south london tour' trying to find one haha

Any help would be appreciated

I've got a 52cm 531c 80s english road bike frameset, its an Orbit Gold medal, 27 inch not 700c, rear rack/mudguard braze ons, but i ran it as 700c and as such as looaaads of clearance for tires, really lovely lugs, brazing work seat stays etc.

I did strip the paint and clear coat it though, I think it looks nice but some purists might not! But if you plan on painting it anyway, it'll save you some effort haha.

Pic attached of what it was when it was built up, still got the bars (sans tape), stem, seat post and saddle too if that would be of any interest to you

dibs the ortlieb bag!

Sweet man yes please, i'll send you a PM

Cheers man but reckon i'll go with the offer of the big guns below just in case, thanks for the offer though!

Hello, I've got a cheap alloy seatpost I need to cut down so it will fit in my frame properly. Would anyone in SE be so kind as to lend me a hacksaw, I'll bring you beers upon return!

I would be so on for buying a keith haring and mattise vinyls to poser up the beater

hahah I rescind my offer then. Knew it was too good to be true to find an elusive cheap 130bcd big track ring. Cheers though mate

Would you sell the 49t 130bcd ring separately mate?

bump :)

@ltc sold me some cranks, gave me some free extra bits i needed and arranged super convenient collection. top bloke!

ah thanks man! I shall definitely keep you in mind if no one else offers any up in the next day or two.

changed what I'm looking for: has anyone got a cheap silver 26.8mm seatpost, somewhere over 190mm in length, can be pretty ratty, im in SE london but can come pretty much where in the city to pick it up. Or can pay for postage if you're elsewhere in the UK. Cheers

ah mate that would be great! pm incoming!
