As title suggests. For my surly steamroller, have been running velocity chukker polo wheels (48h) but they are knackered.
Don't care about weight/branding/looks, just as long as they are strong and can fit wide tyres.
Cheap as possible but can stretch
Postage to Bristol is preferable but can possibly collect

Cheers

Still looking

as title says looking for some spuddies.
Must be as cheap as possible, after that I'm not really fussed

Previous owner of the frame jammed a seatpost that was too big in, had to warm the frame up to loosen it, which is why some of the paint has chipped. Can work something out (possibly a respray). Only aesthetic damage.

As the title says I'm looking for a new front rack. For whatever reasons, I'm often finding that I don't have the room to carry my loads in my bag, so having to leave stuff behind or make two trips.
Bike has so mounts for panniers so they are out of the question, and I would be lying if I said that I dont think carriers look cool.
I like the width and price of the origin 8's but nowhere seems to stock them, even across the Atlantic.
If you know of anywhere that does sell them, or have one yourself that you wouldn't mind parting with then give me a shout.
Would definitely consider similar racks, not really looking to spend more than 40 or 50 quid though.

dibs on charcoal helmet if still available, pm sent

wouldn't fancy splitting the bike? would love the frame/fork

any picture of this built up/with wheels?
potential dibs

title says it all really, looking for something for the slower rides
must be posted to/collected in Bristol

a steal at only £650 on eBay

fork geo must be similar to surly steamroller fork
around:
a-c: 368mm
offset/rake: 38mm
must also have room for 35c tyres

hub should have a low flange preferably, but not necessarily
surly front disc hub ideally, 100mm spacing

I know I'm being quite specific, so budget shouldn't limit it, preferably as cheap as possible though.

thought I was sorted, but wheels didn't turn out to be right for me, so looking again

Yes me too. I had very little knowledge before, but the stolen goods industry is not one I wish to be supporting

That's a very good point actually. I might encounter some really clued up thieves though..

ah that's what I thought! I rarely visit London, so excuse my ignorance. I just remember passing and seeing a load of bike parts being sold cheaply, I didn't look very closely. In my innocence I just assumed it was an organised sale where people go to flog their unwanted bike goods, we get them occasionally in Bristol. Thank you for informing me otherwise though.

NOW THAT I AM AWARE OF THE REASON IT WAS SO CHEAP, I WOULD LIKE TO MAKE CLEAR THAT BUYING STOLEN GOODS IS THE LAST THING ON MY MIND!
A year or two ago I was in London and chanced upon a bike market near Brick Lane, which sold a lot of low quality second hand bike parts, but were very cheap!
My next build needs exactly that!
I'll be in London some time next week, so does anyone know if this market still runs? And if so what day/time?
Alternatively if anyone has a cheap set of fixed/free wheels which can fit 35c tyres for sale, let me know.
Weight not an issue, I just need them to be strong, and able to run freewheel as well as fixed so I can ride cyclocross (not properly, don't worry)

looking for some cheap wheels for an every day bike
need to have a flip flop hub so I can ride the occasional bit of cyclocross
must fit 700 x 32c tyres
must be strong-ish, but weight not an issue
would like them to be cheap (under £50) as going on a budget build, but obviously that is very low, so my budget can stretch.
rear wheel the most important and I can probably find a front one somewhere in my house

sorted, got a surly steamroller off eBay for cheap. Thanks for all the Pm's!

anything about?

so now I've figured out how to post on the new site, I need a new track frame.
Budget around £120 f+f, but can be stretched if bike is nice enough.
size preferably 54cm, but can stretch a cm or two either way, as it won't be a fast bike.
Not fussy on condition, and long as it's not bent or cracked
will be looking at buying frame/fork/bb/headset/seatpost but frame only works just as well.
regards
R

PM'd

nice bike, sadly not my size. GLWS
