Dibs cranks if split? Probably unlikely...

Amazing! You don't happen to have any other Dura Ace 7500 cranks lying about do you? ;)

dibs on the brooks saddle!
PM to follow

Interested in the brooks... still available?
I'm in london, can collect or meet up.

Hi,

I am after a 130bcd ring - to fit Sugino messenger crankset.

Ideally after something to replace the thick style ring that comes with the cranks, so something a little more slender would be preferable if anyone has anything!!

Ideally between 42t to 48t
Cash waiting.

Anyone got something suitable?

Ben

Dibs brooks professional. PM coming

I have a Fitbikeco complete bike going spare. I say complete, but it needs a set of cranks, although I should have a spare chainring to suit.... It's at a friends house at the minute, but I can grab it soon if need be.

It's one of the early completes they did, but has hardly been used. My ex had it from new, she didn't ride more than a handful of times.

Ben.

32H.** Velocity Deep** V Rim. Black. Un-machined.
Ambrosio Track hub. Silver. Fixed / Fixed.
DT Swiss spokes. Double-butted. Silver.

I'm selling this rear wheel as it is now surplus to requirements. Only used in good (dry) weather. Never seen a brake. Very good condition, a couple of marks on the rim, but barely noticeable. Threads on the hub are all in good nick. Runs straight and true.

£ SOLD

Pick up in Homerton/Hackney Central (evenings/weekend).
Or in Camden/Mornington Crescent (daytime).

Could possible meet somewhere central-ish need be. Just ask.

Sorry, no postage.

Cheers,
Ben

Dibs on the MAVIC OPEN 4CD 36H 700C rims

This might be a long shot, but having searched around the net / on here etc I'm still stuck.

I bought this frame from Jos around 18months back. He wasn't sure what it was at the time, it was powdercoated when I got it, so no serial no could be seen. I have had it powdercoated again since. Could possibly be Belgian / Dutch track frame (no drilling in the rear, horizontal track ends) - although the origin thing is just a guess, seeing as though I bought from Jos...

Here are pictures of the lugs, specifically the front ones i haven't seen similar before. Maybe somebody has an idea.

I'm looking to get some decals for the bike, but don't wanna just slap something on which isn't right, haa. I'd feel like a fraud! So any help whould be appreciated!

Ben

Just PM'd you, re the saddle mate...

new bikes looking good dayno!

nah, just the seat... can't quite stretch to the Merckx :(

PM'd

Oh, it seeems there are only 4 tricks in BMX now. How dull

raffle sounds like a good idea to me. im in...

Bah! Shunning the ones i said you could have. Or did you just forget?

The only issue with this is that you'd probably have to use a set of Profile (or similar) BMX cranks. Which in my experience is a shite idea for riding fixed.

I had an old set of Profiles that i slung on my first conversion, and due to their only being one bolt holding the chainring to the arm (through a soft aluminium sprocket) it worked loose every other day. They simply are not designed to be used cranking in both directions (from breaking forces etc.)

Although if riding round at 5 mph doing drops off 3 sets is your bag, then i guess a stronger Mid-BB / bmx crankset is probably more suited. Just remember your 5.5mm allen key.

I got the girlfriends done in mint green (RAL 6019 I think) with metallic laquer, which is as close to metalflake as you will get at Armortex, Dayno... Certainly aint NJS style triple flaked glitter bomb effect, if that's what you were angling after!

The metallic glitter / flakes are pretty small, and defo show up / work better on her green, than they do on a lighter colour. i.e. my white frame.

Yeah, thats the correct spelling. ;)

Matt, ill take that BBB post off you.
