I think he's given up on selling here, and decided to put his stuff on eBay.
I've had no reply anyway.
shame really as he'll incur all the eBay costs when he sells on eBay.
a bit of time with a tape measure and a digital camera and I reckon he'd have easily sold loads of frames.

I'd be interested in a 60cm track frame. Or a 60cm road frame with tight clearances.
send me some pics if that's how you wanna do it.
thanks.

Hi, I'm building a new town bike for my girlfriend, and having decided that the frame I was going to use isn't good enough and with her birthday looming, I'm after an alternative frame.
So I'm looking for a reasonably lightweight, step through ladies road frame for a girl who's about 5' 8"

I'm in Manchester, so a localish frame would be awesome.
Tar.

So, what happened there then.

Yeah, how tall are you?
I'm around the 6ft mark, so would really be after a 24" frame.
Your 57cm may be a wee bit small for me.

Thanks adroit. But I think I'm going to splash out on some tektro R556 Dual Pivot Calipers.
They're about £39 posted.
Here's a link to some...

Scratch that.
They're Allen fitting.

Here's the nutted variant...

Just been looking.
Can't see any longer than 57mm

I'm in Manchester, so I'm unable to collect easily.
If you'd be ok to post I might be interested.
I've got some old weinmanns laying around, but I was after something a bit nicer.
What are the ones you've got like?
Have you got a pic?
Or if you can give me a brand/ model I'll Google that.

I understand if you're not up for posting. Most of the lfgss southerners aren't normally up for it.

70mm+ drop brake calipers. Front and rear.
Dual pivot ideally.

Front or rear? Nutted or Allen key?
(I have some front, nutted)

Sorry, should have thought to add more detail.
Nutted, front and rear.
It's for a ss conversion based on an old ernie clements tourer.

I've seen the alhonga brake calipers, but just wondered if there is anything out there that will do around a 72mmm brake drop.
Anyone got anything?
Preferably dual pivot.

Tar.

Nobody?

Anyone got a spare Campag front caliper, preferably a long drop if poss then?

shudder

My mistake!
Must be on the London fixed grammar and single speed forum.
Please can someone put this on the correct forum.

What are they lolo?
Pedals, obviously.
But is that a Solution, cleats?

Might help if I wore shoes with grips near the toes.
Mine are almost bald at the front.
I will persevere.

So I put my toe clips on my fixed bike this weekend.
I think I must have ridden the full 3.5 miles to work this morning with only one foot in the toe clips.
Can anyone give me any advice on a good way to get ones fecking foot into the fecking toe clips!?
Am I just gonna have to practice?

Anyone got one?
I've Googled them, and I can get one from the states, but it'll cost a bit.
The springs are only $8, but the postage is about $20

aye, good point.
might just do that actually...

I hope he tries the same thing again, but whilst distracted by his prey he veers off and hits a lampost, and is propelled through his windscreen.
What a total fucknut!

For sale.
21" 1960s holdsworth frame.
Having been in touch with Hillary stone, he's informed me that this is a monsoon.
I've had a bloody good look and can't find any serial number anywhere on it.

Got it in June, and still haven't done anything with it so its up for grabs.
Comes with headset and bb, although it'd probably be best to replace them.
And also the rusty milremo cranks.
No pedals, or wheels.
They were just on for the photos.

It's nice and light, and would make a great little restoration project.

£60 or nearest offer, if you think that's too pricey.

I'll take the seat off you if you're up for it.
£15 posted to Manchester please.

I tend to use car body filler on any imperfections on a worn frame, then sand back using varying grades of wet n dry. Don't know if its the right way to do it, but it works for me.
