For sale, a pair of levers, used for a short while with a few marks (look at pics). mechanically perfect. i just find them too big for my child-like hands.
no cables. but i do have the little sweep reducing spacers.
10sp. double.
£150 posted to your door.
im about this week coming to sort it out, but off to arizona next week. if they dont sell here ill put them on ebay...paypal, uk only.

anyone here interested in an old post office bike (pashley steel one)??
i got as far as taking it apart and servicing the headset so far.
stumped on how to get the chainset off (if you want to repaint it) the thread is a different size to anything ive seen before. im sure you could get a bolt down the hardware store that would fit to extract them...but i cant be bothered as im out of cash for this project.
bottom bracket, headset perfect condition. few spots of rust, chips and scratches everywhere.
wheels - stermyarcher 3 speed with drum brakes. one of the rims is dented so could do with a rebuild - i always intended to build some more modern rims for decent tyres.
frame, fork, wheels, gears, brakes etc...all freecycle. (no original stem or bar). (no front tray unfortunately).
i did buy a nice stem and bar for it and would want to get my 14quid back on them if you want.
if there is any interest ill post some pics - would be a shame to see it go to waste (sitting in my garage for eternity).

the thing about the Gangsta is that it looks great set up as a cross bike too with those forks (IMO anyways)
Also possibly a massive pea roast but anyways.
is that really a cross bike though?? poor cable routing and trick style pedal feet belt things?
i wouldn't want to race on that for sure, give me my uncle john over that any day.
plus everyone in the league i race in on single speed gets their arse kicked - there isnt enough of them for a race of their own. -

That CX bike is semi fail. No brake bosses apart from discs. Yeah discs are better but illegal to race with.

not sure if this has changed again - indeed i haven't raced this season in the same field as a bike with disks - maybe they are just not in wide distribution...yet??
