We will be building on Carla Cargo's plans but beefing it up to raise payload capacity to 350 kg and extending the flatbed 55 cm. They have tested it with a 200 kg overrun brake so seems sensible to use them as a starting point but open to suggestions. This is for a local food waste collection project I'm doing through a nonprofit, for more context on payload capacity. We have an Urban Arrow L and Urban Arrow Shorty as starting bikes for this project but also open to suggestions. What kind of payload was yours and how did it the trailer behave? Any suggestions very welcome.

Has anyone here built or know anyone that has either built a Carla Cargo trailer from the Open Source plans or that would be interested in helping out with the cutting and welding?

free bike was collected by @valerie 2 weeks ago. hope a donation has gone to support the forum.

Great, are you local, when would you like to collect?

Free to you and you make a donation of your choice to the forum.

Ultra comfortable riding position, built like a tank, 3 gears, great hubs, solid frame.

Rear wheel is done for, needs a new wheel and new chain and some TLC and it's a great pub bike.

Rides faster than most delicate dutchies, etc.

Free to collect from Crouch End, N8 ideally tomorrow afternoon/evening or even tonight if you're local.

You could confirm when laptops will be delivered and make the case that you have worked without installing anything for 6 months so you'd rather wait for the work gear to arrive (for privacy reasons).

Brother Kepler frameset in great condition

Shimano 105 group
Rear and front derailleur – great condition
Shifters - bad condition (scraped)

Miche Action wheelset and Gatorskins – great condition

Can anyone help me price it?

Hard to say with frames that don’t come by that often and I almost bought a second one a couple of years ago from America but it ended up going for over £500.

Perhaps this frame is for someone looking to put together something connected with Benotto’s 50s-80s racing history, Antonio Belivacqua, Ole Ritter, Roger DeVlaeminck, Freddy Maertens, Braun Gregor, Cino Cinelli and Francesco Moser all raced with a Benotto.

Check out Moser winning the 1978 Paris-Roubaix: https://youtu.be/_2Z61UVMWio

Open to hear your thoughts if I didn’t price this fairly as it’d be great if it stayed in the forum. Cheers

Selling a beloved Benotto frame bought from @psychlist 11 years ago, the frame had been previously kept in storage for 10 years and was on display (as a piece of art) for the past 11 years that I have owned it but am now forced to sell.

Hello everyone,

I got this with the intention to bring it back to former glory but it's just seating here and I haven't done anything, I keep holding on to it as the geometry is so sweet and rides just fine the way it is, although there's lot's wrong with it, to start with the seat post is stuck and the gears aren't shifting - it's already a single speed :0....apart from that, seems fine, gatorskins (needs changing), tektro brakes, selle royal, shimano stuff.

Collection from Highbury & Islington area, you can ride it away without a problem.

Yours for £70

Quick update, I took it out for a ride this morning and got the front mech working, not smoothly, but it's shifting, rear mech goes down but is not going up, needs more adjusting. Will try to add some more photos later on. Bike is straight with no damages to the frame or wheels. Rides as it should. cheers

As you can see from the pic, it's gone, bike shop near me doesn't have it, would you know where to find it preferably around Hackney or central.

It's for a ladies dutch bike with 3 gears Sturmey Archer. Cheers

sorry to hear. hopefully there won't have a next time, but just in case, what I had to do was ask the businesses near the accident to check their cctv myself, with the exact time it's a really easy task and they did, and the pub in the corner had it on their camera.

I emailed the wonderful MET police all the details, name of the pub, name of the manager, their address, telephone number, number plate of the vehicle, everything I could gather, the wonderful MET still couldn't be bothered to drop by and collect the DVD the landlord was kind enough to save the footage on.

So I kept emailing and calling the wonderful MET, then the PUB manager saw the pain I was going through and allowed me to see the cctv, I was able to identify the vehicle, added that to the police report, the MET added the owner of the vehicle to the email chain...

cutting this short, the MET never did anything, but I got the vehicle owner to pay to fix my motorcycle. So although this was about a motorbike and not a push bike, if you have the patience to do all the work yourself and get lucky with a cool pub manager that feels your pain, you can have a positive outcome.

great news, mind sharing how you got it back and carboot details?

Berlin has been nicking so many of my mates in the past 5 or so years that I somewhat find this headline not surprising:

"Berliners frustrated over restaurants where no German is spoken"

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/aug/14/berlin-restaurants-german-english

Not my video and I don't know the rider, posting for visibility and hoping the guy has called the police by now.

From the rider's YouTube video
"Black car driver was reversing to park the her car and driver behind was giving her space. The two cars on my side couldn't be bothered to wait for me or the black car finishing to park. His wing mirrors hits my handlebar. Just getting abused by him as apparently I hit him with my hand on the mirror. Should have called the Police. BL12 ERJ 16-06-2017"

Compton Street is handy, cheers
