I did a post earlier in the week...
https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/363894/

Was quite chuffed and listed them on eBay. Someone contacted me saying the bow on the spider was not pronounced enough for Pista. On closer inspection, some c**t filed the lugs off a Campag Chorus road set.
And there was I thinking I was going to make bank. I could cry right now.

Can anyone provide me any information on these cranks?
I know they're Campagnolo and 172.5mm length, but after that, who knows?
I'm trying to remember how I got them. I think they came on a frame and got swapped off.
They look like track, and that would make sense with the frames I owned at the time.
I've got no idea what level of Campagnoloness they are and what they might be worth.
Probably gonna go on eBay. Anything that could help my description, would be good.

Count'em

They are NJS spec and stamped. So 32 spokes.

Never been used. Cog and lock ring were hand tight.

£100 a front hub. £120 rear hub. £15 cog.

Any serious offers before these go on eBay. I have two front and one rear. Rear has a 15T sprocket.
Brand new, been sitting in a box for about ten years. Never gonna build them into wheels now.

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but having held on to this bike for another six months, I have cycled all of zero miles on it. It really should go to a new home.
I'm planning on eBay-ing it and seeing what it makes.
I'm thinking of setting a reserve minimum at the £800 mark? I was hoping to get close to £1k for it. Is that just being really ridiculous?
The rear wheel is extremely rare and every component is Campagnolo Record.

Need to get rid of these.
Now on eBay. No Reserve.

Bump.
Still for sale.

Bump.
I'd take £35 for them. I can't go lower then that.

Bump.
Still for sale.

It's about 8.5kg, and would constitute a large parcel according to Royal Mail. That's gonna be about £20 and I'm going to have to pick up packaging etc.
I don't actually have it at my flat, its at my parents house, so it means a journey there, packing it up and then a trip to the post office, which makes it a huge faff.
You coming to London anytime soon, or have friends that are making the journey?

I guess they could be posted, but the cost might make it excessive. They are not light. Let me weigh them and see what it would come too.
If anyone could collect them, it would be preferable.

Thanks. Yeah, I was very pleased with them. They run as good now as the day I bought them. I wasn't so keen on plastic rollers, but you can't really make parabolic rollers from metal. The 'kerbs' on the side saved a few embarrassing accidents. Anyone who has a set of these, will know that feeling, the moment when you bounce off one.
Only shifting them, as I don't have space in my flat for them.

Thanks dude. That sounds right. I think that's what I ordered, when I got these.
I can't really sell them as Elite's as it doesn't say that anywhere on them.

Set of used, Travel Trac Velodrome parabolic rollers for sale, in good condition.
Some tire marks to the rollers and light surface rust to the frame. See pic below.
Cant find a manufacturers website or much info on these. I think this model is no longer made.
Located in Palmers Green N13 London, not far from the train station.
Looking for £40

Difficult to say.
I think it's eBay, with a reserve set to what I'd be happy with (still trying to figure out how much that is).
If it doesn't make that. I'll part it.
Thanks for your help guys. Sad it's gonna have to go.

Common sense would be to part it out, but having built it up and put some serious time and effort into it, it would hurt to do so.

This has to go. It looks like I'm going to be out of work for longer then I anticipated.
Anyone know what I should realistically be asking for it?
I'll make an add in classifieds when i get an idea of what I should be asking.

I'm honestly not sure what is a fair price for it.
The frame is gorgeous, the Shamal track rear is hugely rare, the headset, bottom bracket, crankset, seatpost and brake are all Record. Even the tubs have little usage and cost £140 the pair.

I'm 6ft3 and it fits me but is a very 'compact' cycling position and welcome to toe overlap town.

It comes down to what I'd get for it really. I need cash, but if it doesn't generate much, I'll hang onto it. Might eBay it with a reserve that I'd be happy with.

The frame is a Dave Yates and it was sold to me as apparently Renolds 653, but I've never been to sure. it has been resprayed at some point. I ran the frame number past Dave Yates, but as records were destroyed in flooding, he couldn't tell me too much about it. From the number format and location, he was pretty certain it was his. He actually remembered putting it together for a quite serious amateur racer, but it left him purple with pink lightning details.
Kinda glad it got resprayed.

If the answer to the first is yes and the second is no, then hang onto it.

The answer to first is no and the second is probably yes, unfortunately.

It is a bit of bike porn. Fillet brazed frames make me.... tingle.
I know I'll miss it, but I never use it and barely even see it.
