Yes, I am in South Wales so the price includes postage in the UK. Dibs then PM me if you want it.

Cheers.

Hi,
could you post it to Coventry?

Is the bb threaded then? If it spins freely usually means its buggered,

I meant the spindle spins freely, not the bb shell.

fuck is this sold? I would have bought it in a second if I'd seen it..

Yup, sold.

Too expensive? Price drop bump.

Built up a pomp (you can see it at http://www.lfgss.com/post2828052-556.html), rode it for 20 miles and have now split for parts. Dibs then PM for payment details, Paypal gift please.

XL On One Pompino frame and forks. Will throw in the sealed BB, and has honey leather chainstay protector. Some of the decals very carefully removed, has some scratches on the dropouts from mounting wheels but otherwise pretty much as new.

F&F with BB £140 £130 posted.
~~ F&F with BB and Chris King aheadset £180 £170 posted.~~ SOLD

Cheers.

Price dropped, now down to £125 posted.

I thought it would be liked on lfgss too. Price dropped again to £130.

Why has this not sold? An absolute steal, alas too big...

Too expensive? Price drop bump.

Afraid not, the ends hold the spokes that hold the leather discs together, see http://www.brooksengland.com/catalogue-and-shop/bags/other+brooks+products/Plump+Leather+Grips/

Dibs the grips if you can remove the ends to fit reverse levers?

Claud Butler World's Championship Sprint Reynolds 531 track frame from 1954 with stunning lugwork and very fine tubing. 58cm ctt seat tube, 58cm ctc top tube.

£150 £140 £130 £125 posted in the UK, paypal gift please. Dibs then pm me for payment details please. SOLD

Frame number 1555 542, which dates it as a Feb 1954 build. Using the excellent Claud Butler resource and particularly the CB 1954 catalogue (see http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nkilgariff/CBcats/Cat_54/CB1954_Cat.htm) I've identified it as a World's Championship Sprint - the top of the range frame - due to:

• Seat stays chamfered and wrapped over at seat cluster
  
• 1" top tube
  
• Round to oval to round pencil chainstays
  
• Reinforced end plates to curved seat stay bridge
  
• Matching fancy lugs on page 3 fig 8.
  
  

I am not a CB expert though so if anyone else know different please say. This would make it a close clearance frame for 27" wheels without guards, so will fit 700c nicely (8mm smaller bead diameter). Here's the catalogue entry from 54:

The bad points:

• a crappy rattle can paint job that is chipped and rusty in various places and particularly on the tob tube, though only surface rust, this frame needs refinishing.
  
• no original forks (though I'm throwing in the modern Alu fork currently fitted with the frame).
  
• rear brake bridge has been drilled.
  
  

Someone must have loved it fairly recently as it is a Campag Chorus BB (some surface rust on the tapers but it turns easy enough and appears serviceable), a Campag Chorus headset (suspect it is the wrong size though as the cups can be turned by hand) and a Campag seatpin, all of which come with it.

Photos:

Any more photos required can be supplied, just ask. Cheers.

Price drop - now down to £70, less than half price.

Another morning price drop bump!

... it's like watching someone get mugged.

Indeed, £86 new without postage, can't sell them as new for £35 including postage.

High quality bike bits used to keep some value...

How about a rough Claud Butler track/path frame with a crappy modern fork?

The best info I can find to date it (from the excellent http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nkilgariff/ClaudButler.htm) is that it is a 1954 Claud Butler World Championship Sprint. It has the wrapover seat stays, round to oval to round pencil chainstays, the CB World Championship sprint lugs, reinforced end plates to the seat stay bridge, (all shown in the 54 catalogue http://homepage.ntlworld.com/nkilgariff/CBcats/Cat_54/CB1954_Cat.htm), appears to be 531 (27.2 seat tube and is light). Unfortunately also needs a strip and paint due to various bit of surface rust, and has been fitted with a crappy alu fork. Someone must have loved it in fairly recent times and it has a Campag chorus BB & Headset and Campag seatpin.

I'm no Claud Butler expert though so if anyone knows better?

Morning price drop bump.

Morning price drop bump.

Would you split the levers? I'm only looking for the right one.

Sure. £100 the cantis, £40 the levers.

All SOLD

'If you have an item for sale anywhere other than here, like ebay, bikeradar, ctc, retrobike, etc. then you cannot post it here'

kind of clear no?

You cannot post it here - is it the item for sale, or the other listing, that cannot be posted here? I interpreted it as the other listing. Seeing as 2 far more experienced members have called me out for this, I have removed the other listings, so these are now exclusively for sale on lfgss.

I've been asked for a close up photo of the wood, here it is, and one of them mounted. They really are very lovely things.

rules >>>>

OK - I'd taken the rules to mean that I couldn't link to the other sales threads - am I wrong?

white underneath?

is that special white that doesn't show the dirt?

It's formica. Shows the dirt just as well as anything else white.

This is a multi-forum post so apologies if they sell elsewhere first single forum post. Dibs then pm for payment details please. Paypal gift taken, all prices include postage.

Woodguards (see http://squaretreecycle.tumblr.com/). Beautiful wooden 700c mudguards in Walnut with white underneath. Handmade by a furniture maker in Edinburgh.

I mounted these then removed them, as new (but note the rear has been drilled for a Pompino - you may have to plug the hole if you need to redrill for your bike, I'll include an extra stainless dome bolt you can use with a leather washer that will plug it and look great). All mounting hardware included, stainless steel and leather. Normally £153 new, I'll take £90 £80 £75 £70 posted . SOLD

Cheers. :)

  Skunkworks, mine had 32mm Kenda Small Block 8s, it could have taken bigger but you'd lose some movement in the drop outs, you wouldn't be able to mount the wheel right forward. The 2012 frame has more room though - they state it'll now take 35mm CX tyres.
