Hey guys

I'm building a step-through bike for my friend and I need a pair of nut-fixed, centre-pull brake callipers as well as an english-threaded bottom bracket, to fit onto the raleigh frame I got her. It's 71mm wide at the bottom. Also, I'm looking for some old, swept back, north road-type, moustache-y handlebars....

all this on the cheap :-)

Anyone got any of these hiding away in a box on a shelf somewhere?

Thanks so much in advance!

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
