hmmm - you did this since 16:23?

as i'm still waiting -

perhaps somebody has pushed in the plug at Evans!

I sent my price match in earlier this afternoon, it took about two hours for a response...

Evans still seem to be price matching via their website, despite the saddle bring unavailable via Halfords. I've just ordered mine for home delivery!

damn, too slow. "Product cannot be purchased at this time" http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_719323langId-1_categoryId_165588

ah, silly me. What was I thinking with a bell... Clearly we need to combine a recording of you screaming with a bike horn. Perfect for the cyclist who is not perma angry :)

nope, not even cat bells

Think this has already been posted in a thread on lights, but def worth a repost as it sounds like it might actually be heard by drivers

ORP Bike Horn - http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2008278958/orp-smart-horn-smorn

Finally, someone has designed a bell which doesn't look completely rubbish

Not that I don't love shouting at people of course, but may consider one of these...

I realise clothing has been mentioned already, but specifically shoes are a relatively cheap item to upgrade and its possible to easily save 100-200grams (depending what shoes you already have of course).

My friend is looking to sell this if of interest?

Thanks Charlotte. Great looking bike but not quite the style we are looking for.

Cheers

I have this up for grabs. Its a 54cm frame size, just been stripped and rebuilt including the STI shifters. Everythings in nice clean condition

Thanks for your message. Lovely bike, but too big sadly.

Looking for a complete bike for the Girlfriend.

Men's or lady's frame
Any colour
Don't mind the odd bit of wear and tear
Ideally with flat handle bars (to reduce the reach) and gears on the top tube
Pictured below is one of the gf's last bikes, which was slightly too big for her, but worked because of the riser handle bars (it was subject to a hit and run, thankfully not whilst she was riding it, hence the search for a another bike).

Wanted for commuting/nipping around town (nothing fancy).

Based in London and happy to collect.

Cheers

Seriously hideous. I don't understand why anyone would create this awful look over and over again!

Size 27 x 1 1/4

Great condition, only done about 10 miles

Purchased new for £23 each, the pair can be yours for £30

Collection from N15 (Stamford Hill).

Classic Raleigh Ladies road bike c1980 for sale: [strike]£130 ONO[/strike] SOLD

Frame size: Small (50cm seat tube, centre to centre)

In excellent condition, all original parts and practically unused.

Fully working 5 speed drive chain
Front and rear brakes
Chrome mudguards (Front mudguard not pictured but available)
Chrome rims

Selling on behalf of my partner, as this frame is slightly too big for her.

Thought we would see if there is any interest before putting it on eBay.

Collection from N15 (Stamford Hill).

Any questions welcome.

Thanks

I'm currently using my iPhone for Strava, which is fine locally but less good for long rides due to rubbish battery life (also not ideal for cycling abroad).

The devices under consideration so far are the Garmin Edge 200 £95 and Bryton Rider 20 £99.

Would be great to hear some other recommendations.

Cheers

That chainset with rivetted guard was used in the lower end Raleigh racers from around 1978 to 1981? when cotterless mostly took over.

Good knowledge, thanks!

Good spot!

I'll have a Google of old Raleigh bikes and try to work out what it is.

Thanks!

The only markings on the gears/derailer is "Huret", sticker on the frame has a logo (possibly Huret also, see below) and says "Made in England".

No frame number under the bottom bracket, just an "S", presumably for small.

Any help much appreciated.

NB The pannier rack is not original (obvs).

Thanks

I like this but the stem would look much better in chrome..

^ Some one holds bike up straight, lets go whilst stood very close but out of camera view, photograph snaps, person grabs bike...
Obvs, why didn't I think of that. Thanks

How is this bike staying upright? Impressive Photoshop skills...
