here's the mother of all saddles! eBay#16038787474

.....dibs on Gran Sport derailleur and Chater Lea pedals,

....been languishing in the loft for a while I've decided to clear these wheels as I no longer have use for them, pair of MAVIC SSC Q/R alloy hubs with 28 drilling and original skewers, S/S spokes laced to Super Champion Competition sprint rims (these probably need attention as the front has a small flat spot) included are the Vittoria Rubino red tubs and 7 speed screw on block
looking for £50 can be collected from SE9 or will meet up & deliver within reason SE London

........have a 54t for a tenner if interested

Stallionlegs......that would be good of you but only when convenient to yourself,

the tyres on the bike that have perished are 27 x 25's (27 x 1") but the brand is not made or available anymore

need to purchase a two 27" tyres for a vintage steed but am hoping I can buy slimmer than 27x1.1/4".......I have heard Conti do a 27x 1.1/8" are there any still available that are narrower?
thanks

dibs hub

have a 70's 25.5" Carlton Professional in vgc.....is that the sort of thing?

he wrote his autobiography It Wasn't That Easy: The Tommy Godwin Story published in 2007.
'tis a good read......he got two bronzes at the '48 Olympics

Velonoir......any chance of some pics?
thanks

want to buy a pair of steel front forks preferably 531 with Cinelli style sloping crown and Campag. dropouts for a 1960's Pat Hanlon....would consider all 531 offerings though no matter how scruffy, happy to pay sensible price or trade,
anyone able to help?
cheers

Batavus looks good for the money but forks are not original and are cheapo replacements but if you can source a decent pair of 531's it could be a decent project

- Alex Marco "The Bike" (Scopitone)[/ame] ooops! broken link!

next time we meet for a run we should learn these retro moves first!

Alex Marco "The Bike" (Scopitone) ....posted on YouTube UK

some vintage bikes had an oversized bottom bracket (similar to a BMX 5/16th) that modern types wont screw into possibly that is what Geoff Wiles meant, if this is the case then you need to get an adaptor sleeve that screws in and allows a modern B/B to fit.....difficult to find but cycle jumbles are a good place to start!

good selection of repro. vintage jerseys at cycles macarini (France) if you can't find/afford the real deal

I think you'll find Emilia Fahlin second on the right, 20 years of age & currently rides for Team Columbia

.........will take skewers!

have a set of 10 year old Chorus hubs sans skewers....does anyone on the list have a pair of Campagnolo skewers (curved lever) they want to sell or trade?

Evening all

Took a bit of a risk on a new project bike:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...#ht_500wt_1182

Frame is rock solid but so we'll see how it goes...

I think you'll find that's a Vitus 987 frame....does it have wishbone rear stays?

pm me with phone/address details if you want the Michelins
cheers
