Frame now sold wheelset still up for grabs

Just to let people know the frame will take 27" or 700c wheels.

If fitting 700c wheels then brake drop outs need to be about 65mm or you can fit a longer brake pad (mountain bike pad) to compensate for the upward pull of the calliper. I did the latter to fit my 700cs and never had a problem.

**Mavic GP4 rims on shimano 600 hubs **
Haven't seen a huge amount of use. Silky smooth bearings and run true but some of the spokes need tightening. Shimano 600 6spd freewheel hub and one Continental Sprinter tire (stuck with TUFO tape) are included in the price. Can also chuck in some sealant I have lying around.

£30 - will post at cost

1962 Falcon Black Diamond frame
ctc: 56cm
top tube: 54cm

Solid frame in need of some TLC. Was recovered from a bad home and used for 6 months as a single speed commuter but never got round to respraying it because I didn't want to attract thieves.
Stem, forks, bars, shifters, front dérailleur, brake levers and front callipers are all included in price (bottom bracket needs attention). If I can find them will also include rear callipers and tuner.

£SOLD

PM'd you

Looking for a 700Cx23 rear wheel which will take a five speed freewheel block and fit 126mm dropouts (although i don't mind stretching them a bit).

Get in touch if you have anything

Phwoooar!

I'm after a 700c x 23, 5 speed (free wheel block isn't essential) rear wheel to replace one on my old Falcon. If you have anything get in touch.

Cheers

Alex

Now £40

Forgot to mention can be picked up in SW or central London (Covent Garden area)

Up for sale are a pair of tubular wheels:

Mavic GP4 rims
Shimano 600 hubs

Hubs are in good condition, especially the front which has only seen light use. Front wheel comes with Continental Sprinter Tub stuck using tape.

Both wheels need a little truing as some spokes have loosened, otherwise in good shape.

£50 ono

Knackered my rear wheel the other day, it was a Campagnolo record hub with a Mavic GIOS rim. Will be looking for something similar - specs as follows:

700c x 23 clincher rim
126mm, freewheel hub with screw on 5 speed block

Looking to pay around £30 and will pickup from anywhere in London but South West or central London is preferred.

Get in touch if you've got anything

Chamonix has brilliant valley access but the lifts are expensive - E150 for a 10 day non-consecutive pass. If you're not using the lifts I would highly recommend it.

I agree, the plot wasn't particularly clever but it handled the topic well and made for an entertaining watch which was a little thought provoking. A well rounded film which is worth a watch don't think it deserved best film though.

I think this is a staple of every London high street, sad really.
