Will you do them for £10 posted?

are the beans included? bit of a deal breaker

I knew some "joker" would comment hence in the OP :-

"PS - Yes I'll include the beans if it helps sweaten the deal."

:)

Updated the original post to correct the year of manufacture - 1984 not '92.

(I was trying to find out more info but Mercian want £10 for a frame search :( )

I assume that Cheescake_intl will still wants it !!!

Even though I seem to have under-priced this I'm going to play fair and give Cheesecake_intl a chance to come through with the payment and collection in a reasonable timeframe. (It's cluttering up the kitchen so the missus wants it gone!!)

If that doesn't work out I'll contact the other people that have pm'd so consider this (bargain) SOLD.

Richard

What a deal. I'd be on train to Reading to pick up now if it was a bit bigger.

If it was a bit bigger I wouldn't be selling it !!!

Looks like I'm too cheap :(

I have a nice (IMHO) Mercian road/touring bike for sale - just a little bit small for me.

I say tourer because it has a 531st frame which I believe has a little stronger down-tube. It has mud-guard eyelets and clearance however there's no where to mount a rack.

Some details

• Seat tube is 55cm c-t-c as is the top tube.
  
• Has mostly SR components - brake and chain rings are marked "Red S".
  
• Rear Dérailleur is Suntour Alpha 5000
  
• Sakae bars have "Sakae Custom" on one side and "Road Champion" on the other. Clamp area is 25.4mm and in good order. They will need a re-tape.
  
• Hoods on the levers have also split so probably need removing or replacing
  
• Stronglight 170mm cranks 86 BCD - SR rings 52 and 36 teeth
  
• Take 700c wheels - the ones it came with are Wolber Super Champions (Model 58 I think which take clincher tyres.)
  
• 27.2mm SR fluted seatpost which has polished up nicely.
  
  

From the serial number the frame was made in 84 - the frame has the usual scrapes but no dents. A little surface rust shows through in places so I think it could do with a respray.

Not really sure what it's worth - I was thinking somewhere in the region of £120 collected from Reading. I can meet the lucky buyer at Reading Station which os only 20/25 minutes from Paddington.

Any question I'll happily answer them.

Cheers

Richard

PS - Yes I'll include the beans if it helps sweaten the deal.

I have a complete Mercian Touring bike - 531st frame & 531 forks - 22 inches (c-t-c) seat tube and top tube. Has some light surface rust so would probably need a re-spray.

Comes with SR levers and dureaileur (?) and brakes with stronglight crankset. Also has some wheels with Wolber rims - think they are for tube so would need some tyres.

No idea what it's worth - let me know if your interested and I can send some photos. (will probably list it here later as it's too small for me).

Cheers

Richard

Thanks - I've searched ebay so many times and never found these !!

I don't think posting it again will help !!

Anyone have any nice 27" Forks 1" threaded for sale?

Need to be drilled for brakes with a steerer at least 20cm and be prepared to post them as I'm not in london.

For those of you that do not visit the classifieds and may be interested in some Sennheiser HD580 Precision headphones then see here:

Thanks

Richard

Changed original post to include a trade option.

Richard

these are pricey cos they are sought after out of production headphones regarded by some, as one of the best audiophile headphones going, even better than the newer HD595 (just bought some myself) which supposedly superseded them. anyway... price is good for what they are

Couldn't have said it better myself :)

Have some Sennheiser HD580 Precision Headphones I'm looking to move on - thought I'd try here before hitting the bay.

Excellent condition including brand new foam pads on the earpieces and headband and the original box. If you search around you'll find that they are very highly regarded and sound great.

Pair recently sold on ebay for £90 + p&p ((http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110443297814&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT) As mine have the box and new foam parts I think they're worth the same so looking for £95 including postage.

Would also consider trading these for a decent frame & forks - need to be about 60cm seat-tube. Could meet at Reading or Paddington station to exchange.

Cheers

Richard
