Hi these are sold I'm afraid. I do have a set of 5800 direct mounts tho.

Hi could I have the ultegra R8000 front and rear derailleur please? Will pm thanks

Ok no worries. I think looking at the photo that's a 5800 105? Sure there's little difference but holding out for the slightly newer stuff for the time being. Thanks for the reply.

Thanks

Thank you for the advice. I have removed the rust and the new cartridge bearing seems to fit ok.

One other thing I was concerned about is further corrosion - but as long as the cartridge and bearing surface are well greased as suggested and kept fairly dry, am I right in thinking this should prevent it getting worse?

(I'm assuming the initial damage was galvanic corrosion as there was a fair bit of rusty liquid in there.)

If you're looking for the right shifter let me know as could go halves on a set. Thanks.

Hi is the ultegra fd still available? Not sure if @Mr_Nuts took it or not..

I recently purchased a Boardman Pro alu/carbon frame c. 2008 from eBay. Unfortunately, the bottom integrated headset bearings were rusted into the frame. I got them out fairly easily with a cup removal tool and degreased but there's still a fair bit of rust in there. On closer inspection, I also noticed some corrosion around the lip of the headtube too - see photo.

I wondered if anyone had encoutered and/or fixed a similar issue? I was thinking I could remove the rust with some very fine wire wool but wasn't sure what, if anything, I could do about the pitted and worn area?

Thanks

Hi there can I have the stem and bars if you still have them please? Can collect from E17. Thanks

Hi could I have the shifter please? PM'd you.

No, not like that. Frame only.

Sorry to hijack but that sigma frame looks awesome. Looking for something similar 58cm if you have anything or know where to source...? Doesn't have to have carbon stays

Collection from N London or post. Thanks.

Everything you see in the photo plus I have the headset bearings and top race if needed. Collection from N4 only.

Yep it is - maybe just a rusty coloured mark then..

Pick up from N4

Bought this in error (despite the frame size being clearly marked) and it's slightly too big for me. A little tatty and a bit of rust in places but would benefit from a clean. Headset needs regreasing or new bearings. Crank included as I don't have the tool to remove it.

why would you throw them away? at least take them to a charity shop

Would the apex shifters work as brake levers please?

Oh and please do tell me what you've learned about my character. Love to hear.

Yeah you said all this already, dick move lowball blah blah. Basically it's rude because you say it is.

'How we treat each other in a community matters.' How ironic.

I don't see the word 'near' in your original post. I saw you ask for 'offers' on a year old ad so I made one. You don't want the deal or to negotiate - fine. We'll both look elsewhere.

The reaction from that guy yesterday was ridiculous. I should've ignored it and will know better next time.

People can always say no. The OP is clearly not interested as they didn't reply. Fine. Does it not demean the spirit of the forum to start throwing insults when someone posts something that offends their personal ideas of what it should be?

Not questioning honesty or decency. Feel the price is unrealistic. A new frame is £1400 (or they have a sale frameset for £995). For me, second hand starts at c. half price, unless in pristine and/or unused condition. This is now 4th hand with a pretty naff paint job and an old groupset.
