Very interested here - but of course depends a little on price - any estimates you can give?

Also would be more interested if you can get a rough match with Brooks brown and Brooks honey, but clearly am being a little picky here...

Like the idea of that - but what happens if the saddle gets wet (or is fed after midnight)?

Anyone got anything? Preferably a bit up from a B17 - anything considered.

Thanks for looking

All - thanks for the tips. Wasn't sent in a box and from the above and sheldon etc. think it's the tapers. I've tightened it with a bog-standard allen key as much as I can - will see if I can put any more on it this evening. It's not on the cups BTW.

Thanks all

Have some 1" chrome forks with a short steerer, but not sure of exact measurements, and don't think they're reynolds. Can check measurements this evening if you'd like.

I'd like £10 plus P&P for them so at least they're in budget...

Thanks - so it's off to the classifieds...

Hi,

Not sure if anyone will be able to help but bought a bike off here and have been finding that on longer rides the right hand crank works itself loose from the BB - only gradually, say over 3-5 miles or so, but eventually it's completely loose. To date I've been tightening it up after each ride but obviously this isn't the best way to go about things. I guess that the crank arm is slightly bent, meaning that in pedalling I'm forcing it off the BB, but would appreciate any thoughts...

Thanks for looking.

For 1 1/8" steerer, 26mm clamp. Realise there are a few already listed but am being fussy about the colour. Anyone have anything?

Thanks for looking

I've got a 110 mm Italian threaded BB but I think it's a Shimano one - can check this evening...

I've got 2:

1. From an surly - grey, 175mm steerer. £15 + p&p
   
2. From a langster - carbon, 220mm steerer, £30 + p&p
   
   

Or collect in London...

Hi all,

Two bits needed to finish the build - any help massively appreciated:

1. about 50cm of celeste cable housing - or enough for the front brake.
   
2. The silver bracket to clamp brake levers onto drops. Only one needed.
   
   

Thanks for looking

EDIT sorry can't change prefix

I've got a 70mm Italian threaded BB which doesn't fit in, and a 68mm English one that does, but the threading is wrong. So from Sheldon's table I guessed it must be a French one?

Thanks - will have a look tonight.

As per title - bought an old Bianchi off hilary, and the italian BB he supplied is too wide to fit in the shell, and a British BB I have has the wrong threading... so I'm guessing that I need a French one. Does anyone have one? Or a suggestion of an alternative?

Thanks

Have a couple of chrome ones, threaded 1" steerer. Any idea what length you were after?

Ta rik - tika might be good to meet - I can bring the wheel and you can bring the forks...

Great - how long is the steerer and how much would you like for them?

... for use with 27" wheels so will need to have a bit of clearance on them.

Thanks for looking

It's quite old - was told it's 1940s or so - and is built like a tank. The above fork is way too thin, and the diameter across the headtube is 300mm. Seems like I might be needing a specialist...

Ah. Just tried Ben's above and turns out I need 1 1/8". So try again - 175mm steerer, 1 1/8" forks for 27" wheels. Anyone?

Thanks

Hi,

Looking for some replacement forks for an old tandem - has 27" wheels, need 175 mm on the steerer. Does anyone have anything lying around?

Thanks for looking

Have a brown B17 also brand new which I bought on here. Looking for £40 - apols that it's more than the above...

Or these are apparently similar but much cheaper
