Can collect anywhere around there tomorrow evening, if that's suitable for you.
PM'd you.

Which one has gone? I'll take the orange mini D if its available?

£8 seems about fair - they are 15 new

you might want to drop the price a bit. I just got a mint one off ebay for £25.

Is the Nitto Pearl 25.4mm clamp or 26mm?

I'm after a 25.4mm, if so dibs please.

Also - How used are Cinelli Criterium / 1A set?

saw somewhere that the chainring bolts thread directly into the crank spider, so these arn't for me i'm afraid. good luck!

interested in the Miche cranks - any idea what kind of BB they take? I guess they are different from the new style miche track cranks?

If above is right - then second dibs

Is the coaster wheel separate? or is it the one in the picture? simply - does it come with both a coaster rear and a fixed rear?

Looking for a hip pack! Rupert said the wait would be about a week, but that was a few weeks back, so i guess that may have changed now

Yeh, i'm asking because i sent one last friday with no reply yet. Not complaining, just sayin'.

anyone know if these guys are on the forum? trying to see if i can order something before holiday next week.

i know of those, but it seems alot of places dont bother with them. Anyone know of a shop in london with a fitting post?

Hey, need a few bits for the girlfriend's build.
Nothing too expensive, as im not sure how she'll get on with the bike yet.

-Silver Brake calipers - 60mm drop on the front , 50-55mm drop on the back. side pull or dual pivot preferably. And recessed nut fitting would be nice. What have you got?

-Seat post - Even with calipers i'm having trouble finding out the exact size. Seems to be 25.8mm, but could be 25.6mm, so am probably gonna have to buy both and try. Silver only please.

-Ladies saddle. I don't even know what saddles are good for a female ass? White would be nice, nothing too sporty.

-Silver 130bcd chainring 42teeth (or near). 3/32nd width preferably.

-White brake cable outer - has anyone got any going cheap?

Really want one of the hip pouches.

2nd dibs on cinelli 1A and Giro D'Italia.

Going for a ride today (to the doctors, ironically? stupidly?) made it feel alot worse; though when i've been for shorter rides, and gone very slowly, it feels the like the spinning motion might be doing some benefit.
yes- I know I should be taking a break from cycling, though that is much much easier said than done.

Gearing down may not help, (well actually that depends what gearing you are using now)

What foot retention do you use?
Do you have one leg longer than the other?
If so is it the calf or thigh that is longer?
How long are your legs?
What size cranks are you using?
Do you have High/low arches?
Does one leg bow in/out during pedaling?

If you do stop cycling (you should for a bit, seriously) does your knee feel better?

Sorry, the doctor said it is probably a cartilage issue. I guess I'll know a bit more once i go for the xray in a few days.

My gear for about a 18 months has been 69inches (46*18). About a month ago i tried out 46*17 - so about 73 inches. I've had some problems with the knee before, in the last 6 months, but changing up a gear recently probably led to the most recent bout of pain.
Took a break from cycling for about 5 days, and swapped back to the old ratio, felt a little better, but riding again certainly made the knee more painful once i was off the bike.

At the moment, I'm using double straps and cages, set fairly loosly - I find that tightening the straps can cause a bit of discomfort in the knee. I've never tried any clipless systems before and have been riding fixed since beginning of 2007, so over 3 years now.

I don't really have answers to leg measurements, I'm 82cm, sit-bone-to-floor and use 165 cranks, but thats it really. To my knowledge my legs are the same length, but i've never had them measured (logic suggests that they can't be the same length anyways).

What would be the best way of finding out specific leg/arch measurements? I could measure myself, but i doubt that would be very scientific.

thanks for the quick replies guys. gonna go with the 1/8th i think (sumo you has pm).
Cheers ummar01 anyways!

So, Just got back from the doctors today - they say I should really lay-off the riding till I get my knee sorted (somethings up with the cartilage - going for an xray tomorrow). I can't actually stop riding; so hopefully a spinny gear will make riding less painful in the mean time.

I'm looking for something 20 tooth or higher (how high do they go??) preferably 1/8th.

I've got a 17t condor midrange sprocket (cost about £15). Bought it a few weeks ago, only really ridden it about 50 miles (a week or 2 of normal riding) before switching back to my 18t. If you that's of any use to anyone, an exchange would be nice. Otherwise I'll just buy.

cheers
Lester

Your back tire's facing the wrong way at the moment (;

...or the right way if he's running the other gear.

Really nice frame - good luck with the sale. Recently been getting recurring knee pain too; early days yet but really hope it doens't come to this ^.

I'm half tempted to send a message and tell him. i mean you can even see the marks from the old chain bolts that held on the other ring...

...thats not the worst part - did you get a look at the "NJS stamp"?
I wonder how many keirin racers are out there winning trophy after trophy on these bad boys?

what teeth are on the Campag chain ring? 1/8th or smaller?

is this worth £400?

No, Not really.
closer to £200 id say? Hard to call without parts list, but everything looks pretty cheap from the picture.

EDIT - looking at it again id offer £150
