1st dibs go to Charlesreza, 2nd to PQR.
Cheers.

Excuse the BTT but I am in a rush to sell this and its a decent price..........

Dibs OK with me. Wheels have seen plenty use and have had replacement spokes here and there but they are totally solid and true. I'll give them the once over before it goes!!
Cheers!

Un-dibs by Bainbidge - too small for his pal.

Its an honest-to-goodness frame. No problems and rides really tight and comfy.

Cheers!

1st dibs go to Bainbridge via PM.

I'm in Central Scotland now so its good value considering courier will be about £20.

Oh look.....price change!

Finally selling my beloved Butler fixie due to injury.

Its a 57cm frame in Columbus Gara. Solid tubing but used by pros also! Very light, comfy and lively and has seen thousands of happy miles.

Anyway, heres the lowdown:

Blue metallic, decent paint with no rust evident. Concealed rear brake holes in top-tube taped up years ago.
Record cranks with 42t single ring
Rear wheel: CXP30 on Record l/f with 16t fixed
Front wheel: Wolber Profil on Mavic 501 28h
Record headset
Cinelli 64/42 Giro D'Italia bars. No marks at stem
Mutant stem on Ahead converter.
Record cranks with 42t single ring
Royal Grand Compe front brake. Shimano 600 levers/rear lever removed (as pic shows)
Turbo saddle. Low-rent Campag pin from 90's.
Esge or 'SKS' guards.

Thats about it. Everything is tight and works well.

I was looking for £200 including delivery to anywhere UK except highlands and islands.

New bar tape for new owner.

WILL NOT SPLIT. Don't have time sorry.

Cheers.

@ B'jammin, Highlandpro tells us he's going to donate a £1 and let the central scrutineer send the change to you. OK? The Mercian is for invitation only.

Sold

Dibs on the Cyclone/GP4s please if they are still available. I can't seem to PM you - can you let me know please.
Ta.

Do you still have a Yellow turbo at all?

This is painted black with white in the engraved crown - a cloverleaf and 'COLNAGO' either side.

Used for a week or 2 before selling frame. In original Colnago bubble bag.

188mm steerer with 40mm threaded part. Uncut from new.
It has the crown race on it but I will remove it before sending. Or you can have the headset included, I think it is a Stronglight.
£80 incl postage.

Bump, still looking for a front hub suitable for bladed spokes, building up an old zonda rim. Cheers.

I have one or 2 here.

What kind of quality are you after?

pm me

Hello - fancy meeting you here ;)

Can't help with the rim though. Good luck with that...

Cheers!
1st class post coming your way tomorrow!

:>

New or little used please. Its to partner a 28h I have built for my 1980's project.
Have PayPal at the ready!
Thanks,
Derek.

Just the frame and fork for sale. I could throw in a Colnago 27.2 seatpin if anyone is interested. Its matt black.

I also have the original 1" Ahead Force Carbon fork in good condition complete with Record aheadset. I was thinking £120 extra or £580 with just them.

The bars were Deda 215 Shallow drop. Very nice if you have a bad back but not very 'classy' like Campione Del Mondos or 60's.

Heres the frame with the Force forks:

Pic doesn't seem to load. probably need to be a forum member to see it maybe....

Never thought of that - thanks for sorting that out.

Frame and Fork only.
Seat Tube: 58cm centre to centre.
Seat Tube: 60cm bb centre to top.
Top tube: 57cm centre to centre
AD4 Colour scheme. This is about 5 years old and comes with a Precisa black enameled theaded fork and headset.
The chrome is in perfect condition. Tiny bit of flaked paint on rear drive side dropout and the adjuster knurled head has been snapped off.
Also, a little paint has flaked where the chain dropped onto the bb at some point. I have the relevant 3 colours of touchup if you want perfection.
No bb or anything else except whats noted above.
Pictured completely built up but it is now ready for sending properly packed in a cardboard box.
£500 including DHL courier.

Brand new 36h Record silver hubs. Beautiful.

Offers over £130 or they go on eBay.

I have a 28h front in box too. £50 +postage?

I use tubs all the time. Used Pitstop afew times and it works well. Get rid of the paranoia about punctures and you'll enjoy the ride. Cheap tubs run like cheap tyres - not great. Veloflex are very nice but their clinchers used with latex tubes ride about the same. If you can afford Dugast or FMB they are very indulgent and ride so beautifully. They sound great too. Avoid Conti tubs if you want a nice ride, they are harsh. Vittoria Paves in 27mm are very comfy, Evo CX and other patterns are OK, some people find them punctury but there is a 320tpi one out now. I find Gommitalia about the best all round price/ride/wear/puncture resistant.

Get and even overall tension and do the final adjustments by ear. You will find that after doing enough wheels, your hands, ears and eyes all come into play at the same time. Tasting a cool beer helps to complete the sensory enjoyment.

Pics sent my man.

It has done 50miles and hit a pothole. The rim has about 2mm of flat between 2 spokes and the ceramic coating has flaked a little about the size of a pinky-nail.

Suppose it would be good for a fixed setup. Nice and 'black' too.

£20 posted.

Yes, just fire the spoke in, lube it up and thread away. The Cyclus and Hozan ones roll the threads. This is great for straight guage spokes but you need to watch the length of the butt on d/b spokes.

Splatter your site with 'spoke length calculator' in white text on a white background. It works. Do every page as a footnote and hidden text. Meta-tags don't always work that well for some sites.
