I'll take the seat post... PM coming.

I am, but appreciate that they're one of the least valuable bits and I'm not in a rush, so happy to hang on until you're ready/willing to take it apart! Just PM me know when you want to part with them.

I am, but they are very pretty... Any idea where they sit in the hierarchy? Will have a think.

Final call for offers of brakes/levers before I dump a load of cash on Hilary Stone??

Another kind forumite has sorted me out with a front wheel, so this wheelset is available again.

Free bump for a free wheelset...

Thanks again for the wheel, lovely to meet you and shout when you're back in the country for a ride!! Great chap.

Stem now sorted, I think, so just on the look out for the brakes/levers. Thanks!

Still keen on those boots from the last thread, if still going? Thanks.

I'll take the wheel, thanks! PM incoming.

Hi all

Trying to finish off an early 90s Batavus Professional and can't quite seem to pull together these last few parts. Looking for a few things:

1) 26.4mm clamp stem - an XA would be nice, but if you have any others going cheaper then happy to consider - (condition: not too battered, but doesn't need to be NOS) - longer is better than shorter.

2) Brakes - Not too fussy about the calipers, as this one is going to be more for pleasure than heavy weather commuting/braking, but something vaguely period and preferably European to match. Again, not too battered if possible.

3) Brake levers - the ideal here would be brown/tan/gum hooded Aero levers to match with the remaining Italian components... But there don't seem to be very many in existence!! Open to offers really. If they're cheap, I suppose it doesn't matter whether they have brown/gum as I can get after market ones to fit (maybe). If there's nothing going, then I'll be reverting to non-Aero or, more likely, just grabbing some Tektro RL340s/or Dia Compes new... Would be a shame though.

Thanks all.

Saw this in the flesh once and sad to see you parting with her!

Too small for me and would hate to see it taken apart, but... If it happens, I'd be interested in the pedals.

Assuming it's a silver rim, I can pick up tomorrow... Rear may end up freecycled back to the forum at some stage (with donation!).

I've got an 18-23 tubed raleigh that has the virtue of being extremely cheap... Paintwork is reasonable.

Missing the wheels but have a 650b set that could be serviced and paired with the right drops. Otherwise just needs bar tape and brakepads, or FS as a frame set. Will measure up if you'd consider?

Had a couple of offers, so should now be sorted. Thanks!

Hi All

Another seatpost required... This time something for my commuter, 26.8mm for a late 80's Concorde (Aelle tubing).

Not too fussy, but ideally not too flash given that it'll be battered about a fair amount.

London-based or able to post relatively swiftly is preferable, given that it's for my daily ride and I'm losing patience with the current set up...!

Cheers all!

Steven

Thanks all, going to give the free ones from generous forum types a go first, but might come back to you on the shiny ones if not!

Hi all,

Looking for a 27.0mm seatpost... Preferably European, but not too fussy, but basically something that wouldn't look out of place on a 90's Batavus. Don't need too much height, so short ish is probably fine, but long is obviously ok too.

Have seen a battered Shimano on the for sale pages, but it's not what I'm looking for.

Thanks! Steven

I'll take the boots!

Much obliged for the bars, cheers!! Bumpety bump.

Turbo received (several days ago), thanks J! Have a bump.

She's a beauty and a great chap... Thank you! Expect some pics once I find a nice Campagnolo rear mech to put with her... Poss SS in the meantime, we'll see!

What the hell, I'll take it! PM incoming...

I'd take the tyres if whoever buys the wheels isn't interested in them...

It is indeed a bargain, but my project collapsed and can't justify yet more spare parts to wife, so undibs!

It's all yours @ffm... Was probably a little too big for me anywho!

At £20 I'll take it ...

Thanks muchly for the wheel, a pleasure once again!
