Yoooo, are the DEA/Normany wheels 130 OLD spacing on the rear? looks like a screw on block, that right?

cheers.

cheap wheelset, (below 60 quid line) clincher, screw on singlespeed freewheel compatible... silver low profile affair... big ask...

Super Budget SS build for my little brothers imminent move to london, cheers to James and Wayne from on here, just need super cheap chrome/alloy calipers and pedals (hint) and its there... hopefully within the £150 bracket!

shit phone shot... for some reason wont post..

Took it for a spin (brakeless, but on a long straight road in rural sussex) and its whippy as cornetto... well jealous.

The black quills from the cranks?

certainly interested...

Dibs brooks, PM coming.

Did the pedals from the chainset go?

Dibs Frame, PM coming.. gazelle frame just to clarify, £40 or £50? title vs post...

Hi, does this frame have french sizings? or would it take typically sized parts? Is the headset not included?

cheers mate.

Sorry, undibs..

Provisional dibs on the brown raleigh for a friend, will confirm in a couple of hours. Can meet east tomorrow if yes.

that work?

dan you got me, I've been coming to terms with the fact that the stem is a tad too long - Im a lanky chap, but admittedly not quite of the primate shape necessary to ride for too long, though Im getting used to it...

its quite gutting as its a more-than-stunning cinelli milano/14 setup... looks like Il be in the market for a frame with a shorter top tube.

Just finished my first build, a completely 50's restoration of a Hobbs of Barbican Blue Riband, 1952(ish!) Excluding the Saddle (to be replaced), Bartape and Toestraps...

Got a photographer at the studio Im assisting at to take a picture, but the purple on midnight blue colours came out pretty dark in this...

...And offer the owner some money, in case that sounded ominous.

I thought as such, I kind of want to go wait near it now..

Today, at a lockup on Goldsmiths campus, a white unmarked frame WITH DIADRANT FORKS, built up with some seriously ugly modern bits...

Does anyone know of a frame that copies Bates' unmistakable fork shape? It had nervex lugs so I think its the real thing.. If so theres likely some guy with some serious cash under the paint of his beater...

Sorry if you're on here and know exactly what it is etc..

If anyone is thinking of driving up from London then let me know, can split some petrol money. Doug built me a completely 50s wheelset, and sorted out a complete gran sport derailleur set up for an amazing price, his lair will be well worth a look!

Suddenly the money/time/love/blood/sweat/tears/girlfriend's patience/etc spent getting my '52 Hobbs of Barbican built up has a real purpose! (certainly more worthy than the hallowed 'readers bikes' pages of bloody classic lightweights...)

Looking forward to meeting a few of yous...

Do you know the date of the hubs/rims King?
I think hubs have the date on the lock nuts?
Im needing some from the 50s so let me know if its close, seriously hating on self imposed period specificity at the moment...

they do look very nice...

last night at around 7ish (a bit late I know, Im new so only just found this thread) A guy on one of those corking pink Merciers entering parliament square... jealousy nearly killed me as I nearly hit some of the ridiculous traffic....

Then, on the way out of the square towards the embankment a guy shouted 'WHOOOOSH' as I passed him, made my day both of you. cheers!

Is the 'Selle San Marco Laser – Brown suede' still dibs-d?

any chance of a pic of the 14cm cinelli 1a stem vcg £17?

does anyone know how the fit is for the raleigh one? Im sure my girlfriend could do with a nudge on the xmas present idea front...

thursday it is. I may wear a tux.

Will you have them all in spitalfields on thursday?
