Chopping about on my nice bike getting to work and it's getting a bit silly. Pretty skint but after a solid commuter bike, don't mind if it's ss/fixed/geared.
Ideally just safe, low maintenance (once I've given it a service if necessary), can be as hilarious or respectable as you like.
I'm a 54cm but 56cm at a stretch.
Probably looking at £60-70 max but would go much lower
Keeping an eye on posts here so will take down once I'm sorted

Cheers

Hey,
Looking to replace a stolen bike and would really like to pick up a Bianchi or something similar, 56cm (or 57cm) and ideally Columbus/Campagnolo.
Probably looking at £300 max so something slightly scuffed and scratched isn't out of the question.
Cheers,
Dan

Hey,
Made a post with this exact title the last time my bike was stolen in October and I'm unfortunately having to do it again as my Tommasini was stolen in Toronto whilst I was travelling in Canada/USA this summer.
Ideally looking for something with Columbus tubing and mostly Campagnolo parts, 56-57cm frame size, not strictly Italian but something classic and pretty (Peugeot/Merckx etc. are obviously fine too). Not fussed about whether it's fixed or single, would probably put gears on it eventually anyway if it's something classic.
Been away for months and obviously don't have much to spend so thinking about £300-£350 if that isn't too ridiculous for Campy/Columbus but would really appreciate some help sorting a ride out before I go to uni in a few weeks even if it doesn't exactly fit that description.
Thanks a lot,
Dan

Basically dibs either way, I'll send you a PM as well just in case.

If you can do them for £120 posted to just south of London then I'd be more than happy to take these off your hands.

Hi,
Looking for some Campagnolo cranks for an old Italian road bike; preferably 170mm but besides that anything acceptable so long as they're serviceable.
Ideally just looking for the two arms since I already have the rest but can purchase the full set if necessary.

Hi,
Looking to get an approximate value on this Tommasini and (ideally) a model and year if there's any experts here. It's supposedly a Prestige with Columbus SLX tubing although I can only find pictures of Super Prestiges which are quite different so I'm unsure. It has the T indent on the bottom bracket which attests to it being genuine but it's been re-painted and original decals appear to have been replaced.
Bit of a long-shot but hopefully somebody here can help or at least advise on some kind of gut-feeling price range.

Hi,
Just had my pride and joy stolen and given the statistics for bike recovery in London I'm already looking for something new and preferably similar to my old build.
Basically looking for something classic, preferably vintage Italian or Belgian, 57-58cm, understated colour and decent condition paintwork ready for a single-speed build. Thinking 80's Columbus, Campagnolo, Merckx, Pinarello, Bianchi etc. but probably not the high-end models given my budget.
Insurance payout is going to be around £400 and I'm willing to spend that all on the frame, and a bit of research seems to suggest you can pick up an old Merckx for something like that these days so hopefully somebody here can point me in the right direction.
Cheers,
Dan.

57mm is fine, how much would you ask for them?
It'd be great if you could just do the rear since it should run fine with the Campag (they look very similar mechanically) but if you need to shift both we can work something out.

Bought a pair of Campagnolo Veloce calipers but unfortunately the rear brake needs more reach and I'm seeking to buy a similar-looking rear brake with something like a 55mm drop.
Can trade the rear Veloce (40-50mm) or purchase as necessary.

Possibly a very silly question but I'm planning to attach a TA chainring to a Campagnolo Centaur crank and I need to get some bolts for it. I've heard 5mm is the standard size but I wasn't sure whether this applied to single chainrings too?

Looking for a chainring to fit an old silver Campagnolo Centaur crank, appropriate for a single speed conversion.
Not exactly after beater parts but with £12 in the bank I expect a little bit of wear, just looking for something that's going to work for now.

Just joined to get some help with building a single speed for the first time, hopefully this should be enough to prove that I'm not here to spam anybody.

That was directed to adroit with the 135BCD chainring. Thanks a lot!

Almost positive I'm not supposed to do this but I've been looking for a 46T chainring to fit a Campag crank and wondered if you're still looking to shift yours? I've just joined having started building a single speed and still have restrictions on my account so apologies for sending this in lieu of a PM.
