yeah only a few months ago, downsizing - last in first out

Selling my v2 long if anyone's interested - will post full listing tomorrow

hmmm... pm incoming . . .

bump

nope, he just stopped replying after i raised it in this thread. and the paypal dispute ended because i didn't want to send it back and be £60 down on shipping.

oh well, not the end of the world, but i would recommend avoiding Marijonas Slektavicius (@aepo) in the future

Black or silver, 170mm or 165, will consider 175

Let me know if you've got a set pls!

lol no him being from lituania has nothing to do with it. he's just a bad seller

firstly thanks for all the replies everyone! so helpful

and @svendhöek you hero this is the exact kind of thing i was hoping to find - nice one - ordered

@xkittyx yeah i was considering mack but looks like their websites down? and i saw on a thread on another forum that apparently they've been inactive on Facebook and emails recently... sad if permanent, I've got a pair of macks - such beautiful hubs

@andy_k @drøn its for a frame i built, its got sliding dropouts 120mm spaced so that i can run it fixed easily, and i figured a hub like the novatec existed. its got braze ons for front and rear disc and a hub gear as there are a couple of sturmey archers in a 120 with a disc brake which I'm planning on building at some point. i'll post some pics when its back from the painters!

does anyone know of a 120mm spaced single speed disc hub? (does one even exist?)

Nope, have pm'ed them, no reply

Yeah I think this is the best option.

@aepo what do you think?

Bought it to replace my pompino! Pompinos are great value, but not that fun...

anyway - if everyone thinks that this is normal then fine tbh lesson learnt - i will not be buying second hand frames without seeing them again in the future.

It's pretty easy to say how cool and chill you are from the position of it not happening to you, but tbh it was pretty expensive for a used gangsta, so I expected it at least to turn up as it looked in the photos. To me- the damage is beyond the reasonable amount you might expect to happen during transport. Add to that the fact that it was packaged very badly, and that the seller was a mug when challenged on it...
And ultimately - as I said to seller, I wouldnt have paid what I did if I knew it would turn up like that

yeah agreed. i wouldn't have even mentioned it in this thread had @aepo not responded so badly

^ 'one small chip' apparently

'This will not affect the buyer', actually even though PayPal has sided with me and I can send it back for a refund- I have to pay return shipping because they legally can't make you pay it cause that would be debting you or something. I raised this with them and they acknowledge that it's a problem so offer up to £15 of return postage. So I'm down shipping to Lithuania, seeing as I'm not going to send it uninsured loose in a box cause I'm not a prick

But the point is - this is simply your fault for packaging the frame with 3 bits of foam and some zip ties... And for not getting insurance and not even mentioning that to me.

Attached are photos of the damage

if you're gonna package a frame badly then pay for insured shipping. if you don't want to pay for insurance then package the frame well - its pretty simple. it arrived with 3 massive chips which weren't advertised - this is obviously your fault, why be such an arsehole?

'pedant' - someone who expects the item they bought to turn up as described

@aepo

bought a frame off them - arrived very badly packaged, some paint damage - says it was the shipping companies fault and that they didn't get insurance so nothing they can do - avoid.
(have opened paypal dispute)

Dibs fork can collect

really really need this gone now so price drop down to - - - -> £540 for a quick sale

pm'd

yeeees that looks sick.

Thnx :)

What pedals?
