These wheels have sold.

The Mather F&F is now sold.

£900 ono for the frame, fork and headset. I'm getting PMs asking the same. A Mather frame sold in June on eBay for about £850 but didn’t have the stainless crown. I'm out all day so difficult to reply here until later, but if anyone is interested in parts or the frame, please leave a message. Thank you.

Correction: the other Mather sold on eBay for £650, frame, fork, headset. I still think £900 is a fair price for this frame. The lugwork on mine has much more carving and the fork crown is polished stainless. Plus, I'm including a Phil Wood bottom bracket with mine. Still, it was £650, not £850 and didn't mean to mislead anyone.

Here are some pictures of the frame taken today, with just headset and bottom bracket installed. For many more pictures taken by Robin of the actual frame build, see here: http://josswinn.org/fixie/mather/build/images.html

There are a couple more recent images of the frame and fork in this Flickr set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/joss-winn/sets/72157630811227764/

£900 + delivery, includes Dura Ace headset and Phil Wood BB.

Can't find my tools for removing the Phil Wood bottom bracket, so am including BB in the F&F price above.

Have created a separate thread for the wheels, now the bike is being broken down.

Hope that's OK.

Mavic CPX-33 + Phil Wood large flange track hubs 32/36 + rear Phil Wood 'dome cone' rear nuts, front nuts, both lock rings and 18T EAI cog. Built by Brixton Cycles: £220+ £10 Postage

Excellent condition. Done about 4-5000 miles. Rear hub is 120mm axle. Front rim has some brake wear, as you'd expect but much life left in it still. No dings or major scratches. I looked after these wheels!

Came off the bike in this thread: http://www.lfgss.com/thread91015.html

Have updated the list of parts which are sold (see above). The cranks were popular!

Having taken the crank off the bike, I don't want to charge £100 for it. There are scuffs and a slight mis-threading on the left arm - still works/fits fine, but you'll see it. So price reduced to £50.

If i were richer and taller.....i'd break the bank for the RM......you must have waited ages for it...gutting for you that it feels wrong for you and brave of you to admit to yourself!

Now on a more realistic level the Nitto Technomic.....is that regular or tall?....because if its tall.....i am very interested.....how much extra for posting?

Yes, it's the tall technomic. It's got some marks on it where I've had it at different heights. £20 inclusive of postage. Want a photo?

That is special....very special.....pity you have to sell it.

Yes, it's taken me a couple of years to actually go ahead and put it up for sale. Feels a bit weird, but it's just not the right bike for me these days. I was doing 100 miles/week on it in London (2005-7) but haven't done 100 miles a year since we moved.

How much for wheels if split? Dibs depending price

How's £220 sound? Includes the Phil dome cone nuts. I think the wheels would be about £450 to have built up.

Having slept on it, the wheels and crank are also for sale. I've decided to build up a new geared Surly Cross Check:

Mavic CPX-33 + Phil Wood large flange track hubs 32/36 + rear Phil Wood 'dome cone' rear nuts. Built by Brixton Cycles: £220+Postage

Sugino 75 165mm NJS crank arms + Campy dust covers: £95+postage.

Brake caliper and 100m Nitto stem are now sold.

I've just ended the eBay auction as there seems to be some interest here. The following parts are for sale. I'm going to keep the rest and built up another bike.

SOLD: Robin Mather frame and fork with Pacenti lugs and stainless crown + Shimano Dura Ace 7410 threaded headset + Phil Wood bottom bracket: £900 + postage.

SOLD: Brooks Swift saddle with titanium rails: £100

Specialized Armadillo All Condition 23x700 tyres - less than 20 miles on them. £25

It's been a while since I bought and sold bike parts so if you think these prices are outrageous, please tell me. I think they're half the price or less than would cost new. Happy to refund minus postage if not happy with any of it.

Interested in the frame if split

Gorgeous bike...just wish I had the cash! btw....didn't I buy a lovely Steamroller from you some years ago? Sold it on...regret it!

Yes, that’s me :-) If I had the steamroller, I wouldn't be selling it!

as it's a mather you might get let off by our glorious leader ... he like mathers rather a lot

That's understandable :-)

joss
just before the mob gets here
there is a rule that says you aren't supposed to put your sale in other places if you are listing it here.
be warned some people might take offence to the above ! and they won't hestitate to tell you so

i see you are only 4 posts into your lfgss career so you weren't to know

OK. Thanks. I had no idea. I'll remove it if people object. Sorry.

I'm selling my 59cm Robin Mather fixie.

Parts for sale and prices are listed in a post below.

I'm selling it because I don't ride it anymore and I need the money. Simple as that. My next bike will be something more versatile like a Surly long-haul trucker.

2 or 3 cms?!
Who fit you?

Robin came up with the geometry/size based on the Steamroller I had before. As a track/road bike, it's a good fit. But for longer rides and a more versatile bike, I'm more inclined to agree with the Rivendell approach to sizing these days.

Can never understand why people would want to sell a custom bicycle.

As nice as the Rivendell are (and they're very nice), they may not have the same sense of appeal as a custom Robin Mather.

Well, it's a lot of money to be just sitting in the shed :-) Plus, after receiving the frame from Robin, I soon wished I'd gone for a slightly larger frame (+2 or 3cm). It's a nice ride, but not as versatile as I'd like these days.

My first post here. I used to live in London and ride around on my tricked out Robin Mather fixie, which I'm selling if anyone is interested: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/290757446063

If it doesn't sell, I'll break it up and re-list the parts separately.

I plan to build up something more suited to touring and dirt tracks. Something in the style of a Rivendell Sam Hillborne. http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/f-hillborne-blue.htm

I must be getting old ;-)
