1950s Claud Butler
63 ST CtC
61 TT CtC
Drilled front, mudguard eyelets, lovely lovely lugs.
Used to run it with 32s as a cruiser town bike. Had some BB issue with it and can't fully remember the state of the shell/thread so ended up just slapping a threadless in there. It's sat for years and would be beautiful given the right time and care but I've got too many bikes, frames and other projects to ever get round to sorting this one.
£150 - offers

A piece of forum history also up for grabs for the right price. Currently waiting to hear back from a potential American buyer though.
Also guessing the desired price for this is gonna be too high for people here to stomach

£500 would be nice given lugs, brazing, 853 and that paint!

DMs are open

ps it needs a clean, I know.

Just checking - are you referring to the D1000 lock?

If anyone's had a Liv Langma with tanwall schwalbe ones stolen, it's knocking around N1

Had a few people ask about the condor and I've been too busy and disorganised to get it down to photograph properly. Will attempt to get it down and possibly list or reply to DMs on Sunday

Got a 50s Claud Butler path racer, though I think the BB threads are kaput. It'll gladly take 32s and is drilled for a front brake, lovely lugs also.

Ahhhh that butler is very tempting!
Always had a bit of a soft spot for it

Two really bad photos of both but they're the quickest ones I could find.
The condor sparkles like mad but it's so hard to capture in photos

Thinking I should shift my 853 condor track that's believed to be an ex commonwealth frame.
Iirc it's a 59 though I'll need to check
Lemme know if anyone's interested and I'll dig out some photos

Also thinking of letting go of my Basso Venta (105 mechanical w/hydraulic discs) I can't really justify having two carbon road bikes.
Think it's the XXL, a year old and probably sub 1000kms done on it

Somehow have never taken any decent photos of this even though I've had it over a year.
Stiffer wheels and being able to fit mudguards at the same time as those 32s and it'd be perfect imo.

Will be back to derail with photos next time it's cleaned.

Dibs for a friend. Pm incoming

What's the standover?

It's more about it being the right bike rather than how good it is.
Would said courier be able to securely box/package the bike? That is one of the issues I'm having with the seller not wanting to ship or take to a LBS to have it boxed etc

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.
I've got a friend that can help but also wouldn't be able to bring it down until the end of the month as well and ideally it'd be good to get it sooner than that if possible.

Eyeing up a bike in Hull but getting there and back from London is going to be a nightmare and the seller isn't open to boxing or shipping or getting a local shop to box and ship.
Hoping there's some kind soul on here that could help in exchange for some money

Brklss Roberts lo pro on Essex road just now. Rider looked confused at the DAS

Shit photo fail

Think I possibly went past @DoktorPepe this morning just off Church Street

Gangsta with goldtecs heading up Essex road just now. Nice chatting to ya

Knew I should have dibsed this yesterday!
If the sale falls through or the new owner changes their m mind then I'm keen!

Bumped into an old friend this evening...
Bought him a wallet I guess nearly 10 years ago and mine about the same time. Always nice to see how his has aged Vs mine.
Mines on the right and sadly turned up creased/folded slightly off centre but I deeply love it regardless.
Also find it interesting to see how the ass side Vs the outward side ages
