Got it for £30 at Ford boot fair, positive it's the same frame. Yet to work out where the yellow tagged bikes go.

But what of it's real owner?

Without sounding like a cock it's his own fault really. It was there for months, he could have done something about it when the front wheel got nicked or when the council put a tag on it.

Meant to add all the quotes last time.

As I say not sure what to do with it.

So did you buy it from the council? If so how did you manage that?

Maybe sell it on to another forum member for the price you paid (if you got it cheap)?

These guys?

Anyone want that charger, £25 posted?

Both BBs sold.

PM'd everyone back. Lowered the price of the charger.

All sold!

Sold!

I had one of the brown ones with chrome forks.

It had blue/white stickers, it was awesome and I ended up replacing it with a T1.

Something looks just a little bit dodgy....

I can't be the only one who was hoping for this?!

Anyone got a bike bag I could borrow for a few days?

Really looking for something pretty compact so I can carry it over my shoulder, I ordered one from Wiggle and it's fucking huge, I could fit my bike in it without taking the wheels off!

I need it from the 22nd to the 27th.

Thanks

Did anyone see that red Gazelle Champion Mondiale that was locked up for ages near Waitrose on Western Road? It gradually got raped of parts until just the frame was left, then the council came and put the removal notice on it and it went a couple of days later in the night. I was fucking gutted, it was beautiful, but I couldn't crack the lock... Ahem.

I even left a note on it for the guy before it was robbed of everything, saying that if he wanted to sell it ever then I'd have it. He wrote back saying no but thanks. When I wrote back, post-vultures, to enquire if I could have the frame, he never replied.

I hope its gone to a good home and not just been carted off by the council landfill team.

Yeah I had my eye on this for a while as well, as soon as the front wheel vanished I knew it was a goner. It looked pretty small.

Knocked £5 off the post and the chainring so they are both a steal!

Couple of things for sale. Dibs first then PM.

Based in Brighton, will be in Hackney/Central/Camden Wednesday or can post at cost (UK only).

1. Campagnolo Chorus Aero Post 27.0 SOLD

2. Miche 48T 1/8 135 BCD Track Chainring £5

This is new, never used. It has some unfinished machining to one of the cut outs but it is hardly noticeable on the outside of the ring (see photos). This fits some of the older Campag road cranks if you have converted to SS/fixed.

Dibs campag aero post.

So an update of sorts:

Frame is with Armourtex getting painted this week and I have slowly been amassing various parts. Have to say they were awesome when I took it in customer service wise.

Thanks to anyone from the forum who I have got bits and bobs from.

So here are some of the things I have gathered so far:

Now with the bike being an italian frame I have tried to keep with that theme as much as possible and this is where I need to make a decision.

I have this lovely Nitto stem and a set of Shimano Exage levers. Should I get rid of these and get a nice Cinelli stem and a set of Campag aero levers?

I'm still looking to get the following bits:

Bars - thinking campione del mondo but its hard to find the exact set that I want - 66-44 polished with single grooves and a 26mm clamp (this might change if I sell the stem).

Bottom Bracket - need to work out chainline before I get this.

Tyres - probably going to go for Conti's

Need to get the wheels built up (Cheesecake is going to sort this) and the seatpost polished up.

Another vote for myself. Excellent.

For building wheels? I can pay you in mouldy CDs that are sitting in my porch that someone never collected.....

But yeah Harvey, can you build some wheels if I supply hubs/rims?

Who would you suggest for getting wheels built in Brighton?

I'm looking for some cinelli mondo bars if anyone has any - single groove, 44, prefer the polished version...

Don't know if these are worth a punt -

Would you accept £50 plus a bunch of old inner tubes?

thought about it...but will they really care?
Any way to ebay bomb him and leave negative feedback without screwing over my own account?

How about you ask him a question from the link inside the auction asking if there has been any structural damage, dents etc or has the bike ever been in a crash.

If he is feeling honest about then he will respond to the question and add the answer into the listing, if not then he is a douche.

post that veloce bb for £10?

I have a Campag 27.0 aero chorus post that I don't really want to use a shim with.

It's got the usual insertion marks below the min line but its in great condition.

Anyone need a 27.0 and have a 27.2 post lying around?
