It’s mental. I have away my utterly mint Made in USA Systemsix frameset for £130. I’d spent 10 years trying to find one and never saw one as good and then when I need to sell to move I give the thing away for less than I paid. I mean discs are great sure and I’m certain 28mm tyres are too but all my bikes are rim and 25mm and all ride just like bikes. Guess I’m cheap to keep these days.

HELP NEEDED !
I have si crankset stuck in my frame. The non-drive side crank is off but the axle and d/s crank is stuck solid. Maybe I didn’t grease the axle first, can’t remember. But I’ve sold the frame and need the crank out. I’ve poured Plusgas in but no luck. Anyone got a great idea ? Not my first Cannondale rodeo as you all know but I’ve never had this happen. And yes, I have belted seven different colours of sh*t out of it with a rubber mallet !HELP !!!!

So, I’m moving to Aus at the end of the year and need to be travelling light. So my quiver is being broken up. Both these bikes have been dreams for years. The System Six is the Made In The USA carbon front end / aluminium back end in 54. It is like brand new. There is no worms in the varnish, it rides perfectly and would be a crit weapon. I have had two which had the worm in the past that I wish I’d never got rid of. Happy to sell frame only or with DA9000 rim brake setup. It’s got SI cranks which have been well used and are scuffed but still super light and work perfectly. The Moots stem won’t go with this it’ll come with the OG mofo systemsix stem. And it won’t come with wheels. I need those so I can ride. I reckon with the DA I’d be looking around £800 but I’ll talk.
THE BLACK LIGHTNING CAAD7 is a museum piece. No sh6t. It’s a 56. It has been ridden a total of about 250km on its life. 100km of them under me. The Campag Record 10 speed is literally brand new. Makes you realise just how special that stuff is. Wheels unmarked. I’ve got the original tyres even. It’s superb. Absolutely mint. I would be looking around £2k for it on here. It’s not advertised anywhere but I want it to go to someone who gets these beautiful things. I spent literally 20 years trying to find one. It’s amazing, rides beautifully but up here on Harris the roads are too coarse and I’m worried I’ll chip it. If I still lived down south I’d ride it every day. It’s immense.
I have tons of other photos if you want. I live on the Isle of Harris though so it’ll be post only, unless you want to come up on holidays (it looks like picture 2) !! 😂

Fwiw these bikes are porn. I’ve had three. Regretted selling every one of them (I got two direct from Look through an ex-pro friend of mine as I couldn’t decide on the colour - tart). Then I needed money and sold them both. Then I bought another one. And needed money. Blah blah blah. They are brilliant bikes. But a warning, they are motherf#%}ing stiff. Only buy it if you want to ride like a bad ass with your hair on fire. Oh and if it were a medium this would already be mine. GLWS you enormous legged freak of nature !!

Pricey but great. There is also a Bagster tank bag called a PUPSTER which looks immense.

Pull it apart including bearings. Strip it to bare frame, clean with alcohol or brake cleaner. Refit bearings using Loctite 741 or 609. Plenty grease. Never had creak since I used the Loctite.
