Thank you - i'll drop you a text/call tomorrow

Hello - long shot, but has anyone been so unfortunate as to smash a carbon frame rendering it useless and worthy of giving away/selling?

I'm after dropouts/bb shell for a project and guess it would be cheaper/better for the world to hack them off a broken frame than buy new.

Many thanks

Bullhorns and brake levers gone.

The stem has a reach of 110mm, and clamp for the bars must be +- 26mm as thats the size of the bars that came off it and the stem clamp part measures a diameter about +-28mm, so i'm guessing it fits a 1 1/8" - its probably got an angle of roughly 20º, maybe less. Overkill?

Sorry - fairly important information. I'll double check later on tonight and get back to you.

Plus, collection from E1.

I have the following for sale:

Mavic Bullhorns - £17.50

In good condition with the logos on both sides - been choppped ever so slightly. Got these off here a little while back from a lovely gentleman but I ended up buying two sets so ought to not hoard.

A set of BBB TT bars pretty nice condition - £5

A set of Shimano RX100 brake Levers also in good condition - £5

A 3T stem - £3

can post if required.

Anybody got a set kicking around that they wouldn't mind parting with for few quid?

And, whilst i'm here, a mavic 520 rear hub wouldn't go amiss either.

Many thanks

Price reduced to £65

Yes, sorry for the late reply.. it's still kicking about

For sale is a Raleigh Criterium 12 for those of a smaller persuasion.

Parts are all generally stock bit and bobs - sakae cranks, weinmann brakes, suntour derailleurs etc., nothing terribly exciting. It comes with a deceivingly uncomfortable seat and the post has a coke can shim to hold it in place. I have the original stem and drop bars, which i'll throw in for the buyer.

Paint is a lovely sparkly blue, and aside from the remnants of some packing tape, is in pretty good condition - just some 'patina' here and there.

It functions as it should, although the rear wheel is a little rattly - hub cones need a tighten, and the headset could do with being tightened up, nevertheless I've been riding it occasionally and it does the job just fine.

Measurements:
TT-cc- 57ish, ST-cc- 51ish

It is nothing very special, but is a fully functioning bicycle and can be ridden away for £70 from Aldgate area. I can post if someone would really like it, but it would be £10-15 on top.

Many thanks

Does anyone have a mavic 520 pista rear hub sat around, ideally 32h? Would be hugely appreciated.

originally I'd written I'd found another sprocket which seemed to torque on what was left of the threads. Nevertheless, after a short-ride it too stripped what was left of the hub threads.

So all in all, no success.

thanks for all the responses...I have noticed that two or three of the first (outside) threads are still in tact(ish) and, if I flip the sprocket around, it tightens to a pretty good torque but obviously messes up the chainline.

So maybe a different sprocket might be perfect for the job...along with a load of loctite...

I suspect I already know the answer, but I'm hoping nonetheless...

Today I found that when I pedalled my rear wheel didn't turn. After a quick inspection it was clear that the sprocket had stripped the threads on my hub. Ordinarily, I would mourn, then excitedly move on to thinking about the new purchase I have been forced into making, however the hub in question is a rather nice mavic pista hub, which are quite hard to come by and I'm quite unnaturally attached to it.

So the question is, has anyone had any luck, ever, attempting to 'rethread' aluminium threads, there is still a decent 'crest'. I know you can silver solder steel, so is there an equivalent. Any help would be much appreciated...

Ahh thank you both. I'll message the two of you now.

Good evening,

Does anyone have old/used/cheap/airtight tubulars laying around that they may part with for some financial reward?

It would be much appreciated if they did.

Thanks!

messaged for the black one, if its still available.

seconds please for the hubs.
