Bit of a Philbrook fan (got 4 inc a Tandem)

Hi there,

Pm'd you, would really like this machine...cash waiting..it's perfect size for me too....pm'd you once new phone was up and running...you 'should' be able to mail me again on the previously used mail to my phone..(where you sent pics to)

I'm free next week on certain day's

James

Hi there,

PM'd you...Blackberry died so couldnt come back to you on Monday as promised...

J

Ok..that's fair enough...pity i'm in far away norwich and don't tend to frequent London.

May I leave my offer to stand though?

James

Hi there,

James

Just kidding..sorry couldn't resist it...i'm in Norwich....

James

New Zealand....?

Dibs Mavic Bullhorn 44's if you can post/ (at my cost of course)

Are the others wider?..if so perfect..42cm would be..acceptable..just...43/44..spot on! (dib's)

J

Are the Mavic's still available?

Nuts,

I keep looking at the Aende...the photos are not very clear..but..it looks like the rear seat Stays are split from the back of the seat tube where they attach at the top?

Is it just my eyes?..it looks like 'more than just two runs of oil/lubricant.. maybe my eyes have gone Mr Mgoo style...but it would near render the frame as scrap..ok the repair my not be huge..but it's going to force a re-paint..from the repair/torch...

If i'm correct..how would he NOT notice this?

Wish I could find an Ishiwata 015 Decal :-(

Well it's worth a mention..3 years of looking in dear old Blighty have not yet turned anything up....

J

"Seriously, will not sell!",.....so it's up on auction on the Bay..but not for sale?? now i'm confused...

Have it in my watch list ..even though it will end up climbing as high as the National debt! lol

Stunning Bike BTW

J

Do you still have a Reynolds Decal available?

If so..I'll have one...

J

BJ or not, quite a decent price for a frame with Nervex lugs

I'm with Coventry eagle..BJ or not...it's still a decent frame...I can almost assure you it's a Sun Manxman...you will prbably see 25+ BJ's (and then some)for every Manxman to ever come up for sale...

My Manxman is not the lightest of frames...or it's lugwork the nicest of 'thinned' filing...but it's something differnt..and i guess that's what a lot of us like eh?

J

ChrisMGS,

I am certain that's not a BJ..but a Sun Manxman...I have an immaculate one in my loft..so recognise it reasonably well..hence the stiffning stays behind the BB..and pressed steel rear end's..and rather chunky/unfiled lugs.

James

Sadly...just 7 or so of 22 bikes and 10 frames... just useless with computers..to get more images up...although can mail from my Blackberry to email accounts.

Many thanks for letting me know you enjoyed em'

J

i hear you...

But can't see anything you might be meaning to refer to?

Hi Peter,

Was this to me or above post?

I'm guessing you found the bikes on flickr?

J

Thanks Peter,

Dont talk to me about glasses...especially cycling in the rain!

Sadly I only have about half of them up on flickr..but if you fancy a squint, glasses or not..i'm on there under; jamesaudiovideo

Been gathering them for a while now...on Friday my buddy (non cyling addict) asked me how many I have..you know it's bad and out of hand when you don't know the answer..so I came home and worked it out...ouch!(madness)

Going to thin out some that I don't want..to concentrate on the ones I do...

Have a Flying Gate touring frame..stunning Rossin..etc to shift when the weathers decent for just 5 mins (yeah right!) to grab some images with anything other than my 'crapberry..

J

Most of Lloyd's frame I have stumbled upon are 653/753...etc so you never know?

Good buy at the moment...even if it goes up a bit..as no doubt it will...

J

Peter..the Ishiwata is there :-)...and the uber rare one at that..

I think I have Tange...I picked up a Specialized Allez..and I believe it might be Tange/ it's o/s tubes...similar to 731 o/s and EL o/s dim's...

J

Ah you just found it..drat..went looking for the article and found it for you..but you beat me..and have already perused it...i think they liked the 731 frame 'overall' IF I remember correctly?

Genius is superb too eh?..I think i now have bikes in 'almost all tubes' except Genius...

Currently the tube types I have..in various frames and bikes are;
531 (of course
531c
531st
531 Pro
531 sl (same as above really)
731
753
753 o/s
Columbus sl
Columbus Cromor
Columbus KL (aero)
Columbus EL o/s
Columbus Record (same as Cannibal used for his Record..hour)
Ishiwata 015a

And no..I am not gonna collect em all..far too many variations!
