!! Doesn’t include any extras - only F&F !!

56.5 square.

I decided to build up my other frame, so this frame is looking for a new home. Blasted and powder coated a year ago by Amourtex in cream (used a bit since). I had one fork leg straightened by Mercian as there was a slight kink in it when I bought the frame, now straight and true. It rides well, no structural problems. The lug work is decorative, would look good lug-lined, there are nice touches including the curved brake bridge and pump pegs on the top tube. It is a 60's model built for 27 x 1 1/4 sized wheels but will take 700c fine with long drop brakes, as pictured. Spacing is 100 / 120mm, seatpost is 26.4. Fork-column base has 27mm sizing which suits the older headsets / JIS (correct me if I'm talking rubbish here) or can be milled by a LBS to take a standard fit. There are a few small marks on the frame (mainly dropouts) from use which I have touched up in a similar beige, so the frame isn't pristine but it'd make a nice beater / project, hence the price.

£25 and delivery would have to be arranged and paid for by the buyer as I'm in the Midlands.
Dibs / PM / Paypal. Cheers.

1960’s Claud Butler steel road frame and forks, 54cm sq, Reynolds 531
Blasted and powder coated six months ago by Amourtex in gunmetal grey (unused since). Clean and tidy and ready to build up. Reason for sale is I have another Claud that fits me a bit better. Frame was originally bought off the forum two years ago, it rides well, there are no cracks etc. Doesn’t include any extras - only F&F. The lug work is decorative, would look really good lug-lined, there are nice touches including the curved brake bridge and pump pegs. (Marked ‘10615’ underneath if anyone can identify exactly what CB model it is/was I’d be interested.) Rear dropout width: 120mm.

**£100 ** for collection in Central London / can post but cost of postage will be included.
Dibs then PM.

Price drop on these, still available...

Can do. PM if you want.

Nitto B263 bar for sale, 25.4 clamp, great condition = Price drop £16 collected, £18 posted.
Can meet Central London weekdays.
One of these things:

They are identical as the ones in the pic. Damn light and skinny. A couple of very tiny marks due to fitting but otherwise as new. Selling as I'm going back to drops... Dibs & PM and they are yours guv.

HubJub says this:

This bullhorn bar stays within a single plane and can be thought of as a straight handlebar with a couple of bar ends attached, except lighter and neater. So the horns point in slightly and you mount it pointing about 30 degrees upwards. The internal diameter at the ends is narrow at 16mm due to the thick wall diameter so problematic for bar end levers, but with diameter a typical flat bar 22.2mm you might want your brake lever(s) on the middle section.

SOLD!

Price drop to £15 posted

Should also add inside the casing looks very tough, I didn't have a puncture in 200 miles on them and a comparison to the folding Gator Skins I swapped them for, they weigh about twice - so around 400/500gsm each...

Hi folks.

Ok, so these are surplus to requirements. Came on set of 60's wheels but I can't specifically date them as they were probably put on after (anyone?). In good nick, beading is a touch frayed in places, nothing major. Tread still good - plenty of life left. French made. Quite an orangey gumwall colour. £20.00...£15.00 posted... SOLD!

Dibs please then PM if you are interested, payment will be by Paypal please.

Late to the thread but I will take the mug if you will post Mr Sorethroat.

Wiggle, sponsored by Haribo. Worth ordering from them just for that sugary goodness. They are consistently good if a touch pricier than the rest.

Lovely build.

Thats the fella.

Just need to replace the toothpicks they supply as pegs on the Laser comp though. Its very hackable too - I have to find the link that shows this.

Has promise. Mercian full resto? Make it so.

Scarp 1 may also be a perfectly reasonable answer to the thread title too but I have not tried one... yet!

Agree. Needs a simple, clean and readable logo to compliment his lovely builds.
Like the show-through on this, nice touch:

Just wanted to give Arup http://www.yogarup.com/wheels/ a big plug to say thanks for building me an awesome set of wheels recently, Campy Record on TB14's. I understand why he gets so many mentions on this site now, easy to deal with, chilled and does a fantastic job. If you are thinking of getting a set of wheels hand built he should be your first call.

Laser Comp is basically the answer to this thread.
Great, light, strong tent.
