This is no longer for sale.

Selling this Lauer frame which was on many forum rides between 2007-2011. It has been sitting in the basement for too long and I don't have the space to put it on display in the apartment, nor do I ride it. It is all about cargo, road, and gravel these days.

It is a custom frame from Claus Lauer build in the 1980s, using Columbus SLX tubing on Cinelli lugs. It comes with a Campag seatpost (not stuck) and a campag BB (needs a good service). A drilled fork is mounted on a Campag headset but I add the original fork. I also add a Lauer Jersey, which I got from Jos when he still had the vintage bike shop in London Fields.

The paint is chipped in a few places but not corrosion visible. I will provide more pictures later tonight on detailed views and geometry.

Shipping or transfer from Berlin, Germany has to be added.

Note: I had the bike on ebay before as a complete mixed built but decided to split and sell the frame here on the forum exclusively. The ebay offer no longer exists.

Thx, for pointing that out. It's been removed.

Sorry for posting my own ebay sale here. It's been ages since actively posting on here, not familiar with the etiquette anymore.

Very impressive Clive. You really must be looking forward getting the new you to the high mountains.

that is very impressive, congratulations.

All sorted now. The parts arrived at my local wheel builder. Hope's support line was very helpful, great customer service.

Thanks, I call them now and they provided me with the part number and pointed me to the right shop to place the order. Looks like it will all be sorted soon.

Looking for some spares to get my Hope going again. http://www.lfgss.com/thread94503.html#post3167996 Is that still what TRNC rides these days or did you all upgrade to more lumen.

Lost lid and battery pack and looking for these spares. It is rather difficult sourcing them. Maybe someone has an old Vision 1 laying around. Any help is very much appreciated.

thanks jonny for coming along all the way.
as I mentioned i forgot to point out the view we could have had overlooking Cuckmere Haven.

this will certainly make for a great deluxe destination especially since clintsomker is always keen on trying out these places mentioned in the Wild Swimming guide. This is one of them but I can only say be prepared for a surprise.
Will follow this thread from a distance next year.

Missed too many Tuesdays this year. I know there is no way to make up for it but I am organizing a ride this coming Sunday to wave my good bye to the Islands black top and white cliffs. Would be delighted to see some of you join. Details on the otheR forum.

Here the route

my pump fits on it ok and shorter valve cuts weight down. ;)

good ride all. v.nice ride with some cleansing rain at the end.

i think jaygee has something to say about that too, he was raising eyebrows on that 60mm beauty. i would have killed for even a 48mm fixing that second puncture.

67.5psi

it's all in the detail

that is short for:
enough but not really enough
or
i can squoosh the tire just a little bit with mit left thumb, my right thumb would tell me i should just keep on pumping with this joke pump.
#perceivedtirepressurefail

The Roydon ride was always one of my favourites and the reverse one didn’t disappoint either. It is so calm and almost uneventful but still entertaining. The few short uphill section made for a nice surprise.
Last night reminded me how important it is to always keep the tyre properly inflated, the 67.5 psi I put on after the puncture resulted in a nice pinch puncture on the ride back with shoots. Luckily it was only 1k before the service station on High Road/ Epping Forest round about.
Will, thanks for the drink and inner tube it came in handy but I must say the valve is very short to fit the deep Vs.

that has been resolved now. the bike was sourced and hopefully make for a nice surprise this sunday.

very happy to have made it last night. kent nerver fails to deliver.
i have one more puncture to add to the ride. must have picked up a massive shard of glass on the way to the station, if only I had noticed it on the train there would have been enough time to service not only a puncture. the only thing that made the repair in victoria station difficult was the the temptation of whopperes at armlength.
