Sweet! PM me where you want me to collect from and when (I can do this afternoon)

Hey, I don't need the chainset or the BB, will you take £150?

Can collect from FP or shoredtich easily enough

If Twiggy does that then I'll give you the extra £25 for the chainset/BB (and chain if Twiggy doesn't need it)

Thanks Soul, I may get back to you on that one as I may struggle to end up with a matching pair if I get them individually.

Thanks harv4130, that's very kind of you, I appreciate it. If no headset comes up in the next couple of days I'll be in touch.

Thanks NJC, I look forward to your message!

Forgot to say, would prefer external BB type, and I need the BB too! :-)

Hi all, I have now got the Chris King headset that I needed in my previous post and am now after the following:

FSA double (10spd) chainset and external type BB, something like a Gossamer, ideally 36/46 but anything considered as I do already have chainrings if I need them. Now sorted this out, thanks...but still need the rest!

10spd chain for the above.

Set of cantilevers, preferably centre pull, something like TRP Euros, Avid Shorties etc

1 1/8" FSA headset with built in cable guide ( the CX I think is the one I've seen - non integrated)

Or if I can't find the above then a 1 1/8" steering tube cable hanger

SPD flat pedals (so I can use with or without the shoes)

Many thanks for looking!

Dibs the fsa headset please, and the computer if you do still have it...

I also work at Tower Bridge so can collect from you tomorrow.

Hi, looking for a Chris King 11/8 headset in mango or black, new or used, ideally for a bargainous price! ;-)

Many thanks,
Darren

Hi there, my brother is in the market for a cyclocross bike in either a 50,51,52cm, either a full bike or F&F as he does have some parts already. He's looking to spend up to £500 for the right bike. A CAADX would be lovely, but he also likes the Tricross, some of the Ridley bikes, the Croix de Fer etc so anything considered really!

Please let me know if you have anything suitable.

Many thanks,
Darren

In answer to some of he Pm'd questions, the electric wheel is a 700c and would suit a hybrid or something with a bit of clearance as the tyres are 35mm wide. It is standard rim braking but comes with a brake lever which you use instead of your existing front lever. The lever is wired so when pulled it brakes/ cuts the motor so its not fighting the brakes. The wheel is designed to be fitted to the front of a bike but i managed to fit it to the rear of an old steel framed racer with flexible rear stays, but then you have no way of peddling of course, but fun!

I bought it for a bit of fun and haven't rode much with it but the battery holds a charge well and it is surprisingly powerful. Obviously best on the flat or slight incline but will assist on steeper climbs combined with light peddling. The guy i got it from has had it since new and assured me he'd get 25 miles out of a charge. I have no reason to doubt his as the battery is still showing as fully charged after approx 5 miles and sitting for 2 months in the garage! It's pretty well used but has loads of life in it.

Any more questions please ask!

Hi having a clear out of my garage. Pics below:

Xero Giant road wheels £75 (VVGC)
Grimeca Bassanos £45 (some chips and marks, 26")
The Electric Transport Company wheel £150 (well used but good working order. Clamp broken so will need to fit battery on a rack. Surprisingly nippy! Over £650 new)
Peugeot, nice frame 70's? £95 (Seattube 55cm c2c and toptube 57cm c2c, needs new fixed hub as just has a dished wheel with cog araldited on so chain alignment way out! frame the best bit, have both brakes and levers)
Unknown beater £45 (seattube 53cm c2c and toptube 58cm c2c, all works, Brooks saddle, the rest nothing special!)
Shimano hub and 7spd casette (£5)
Evans £200 voucher for £180

All pictures here. Sorry can't seem to embed them in the thread on the ipad.

I can bring the bikes and parts to London Bridge on weekdays if it helps.

Hi all, I have a £200.01 Evans cycles voucher which I received as change for a larger purchase at the London Bridge store yesterday. There's nothing I need from there at the moment so I thought I'd sell it on to someone who is planning an Evans purchase. Looking for £180 which is 10% off.

Can be used online and in store.

Can be collected from me today in London Bridge area and I am happy to come to the shop with you to prove it's all legit!

Many thanks,
Darren

Components

Forks - Don't know but mint, chromed and straight.

What type of mint are the forks made out of - are they polo mints or extra stong mints? They don't look straight, they seem to bend forwards at the bottom - maybe the mint was damaged when they were chromed?...

I'm looking for a cheap (ie less than £25) 700c or 27" rear wheel built onto a track hub, or alternatively just a rear 36H track hub and I'll rebuild what I have got. Cosmetic condition not important!!

Thanks...

Lovely bike. Had a silver one of these myself, please someone keep it as a racing bike!

I agree - it's so original that it would be a shame to 'fixie' it - I certainly couldn't bring myself to do it!

I think this is sold now to Nic (Jazzythumper) but I haven't heard anything for 2 days so it may be back on the market by this evening!!

I am selling my Peugeot Premiere (Carbolite) as it is too big for me. Overall tidy original condition, but could do with a polish up to bring back the sparkle, particularly the rims which have rust speckles, and the dull spokes. Weinmann levers, Sachs drive and matching dimple faced Rigida rims. Could do with a new set of tyres as they are perished, particularly the front. A good honest and original bike for £100.

Viewing recommended - Located in Gillingham, Kent.

Does anyone have either a cheap 700c wheeset (rear must have a fixed hub) or even just the rear for my daily hack? Preferably in Kent or London or willing to post...

Thanks, Darren

beautiful bike...and a bargain methinks...if only i had the space...
