Didn't really want to let this go, but having had it stored in my bottom drawer for a couple of years it's probably time to accept I'm not going to do anything with it anytime soon.
Campagnolo Record Titanium 8s ergo levers. Work perfectly. Usual light pitting on shifters. Hoods worn and smooth/thin on tops but no rips or tears.
Record brake calipers. Great condition.
Racing T rear and front mechs, small scuff on rear. Otherwise great.
175 triple chainset. Usual wear to teeth and light scratches to arms.
£200.
I also have a set of 8s c-record era hubs (Unsure, but think they're Athena) built onto Open Pro CD rims. Unused, built by Pete Matthews which would go lovely with the group! Will be listing them separately soon.
Based in SE14.

Dura Ace 7600 36h h/f njs track hub laced to a Lievens grey cd rim.
Can't remember the name of the lacing pattern, but as you can see it looks fucking rad, especially when in motion.
Laced with db spokes to a grey lievens rim which is super similar to a mavic open pro cd in shape, colour and feel/performance. Super stiff and fast wheel.
Single sided fixed. Threads in perfect condition.
The hub is in awesome condition. The bearings are silky smooth and the 'pitting' you can see on the hub actually goes with a little scratch from a fingernail so I think it would come up even better with a clean!
Wheel is straight and true and I have not ever had to true it.
£75. Item is in SE14. Viewing/collection welcome.
Many more things coming in the next few days.

I need to free up some space in my house and let go of some dreams which are basically never going to happen. A few threads will pop up in the next few days. Namely a Diamant EL complete bike (May split), Raleigh Randonneur (I think) frameset, campag record/racing T 8s group/parts, and this little gem.
British Eagle Touristique touring bike.
56cm seat tube c-t. 55cm top tube c-c.
GB randonneur bars (42cm c-c on the drops) and GB stem (110mm) both in great condition and can fetch a pretty penny themselves.
Stronglight 100lx crankset 170mm 48/36
Dinnerplate rear freewheel.
Suntour indexed gear levers (Needs a bit of fine tuning, are currently just running as friction.) Suntour accushift front and rear mech.
Shimano brake levers with gum hoods in really good condition. Shimano V brakes.
h/f Maillard hubs on Rigida rims.
Specialized infinity 700 x 32 tyres in great condition.
Suspension seatpost(!) Specialized saddle, Lyotard pedals, rear rack, mudguards, and reflectors!
I've toured on a similar but lower touring specific bike and had no problems tackling anything that was thrown at me (Gravel paths, Alpe D'huez, torrential rain and muddy campsites.)
I was hoping to do the same on this but it's not likely to happen in the forseeable future.
With a tiny bit of love (Tuning indexed gears - super easy, I just can't be bothered. Replacing bar tape - optional. Upgrading saddle.) this would be a perfect touring bike, but is equally ready to go as is.
I also have some basic (But brand new) black pannier bags I can chuck in.
£245 all in. SOLDSOLDSOLD
Bike is based in SE14. I am working nightshifts all this week so viewing is welcomed between 12:00 - 17:00 Monday, or 15:00-20:00 Tues/Weds/Thurs.

I ordered a groupset form them. The levers did not match the group.
I emailed/called them (Needed to chase a lot) and they basically told me it wasn't possible despite me sending them photos.
They said if I paid to return the items they would look into it for me. I told them to go fuck themselves. Never dealt with them since. -
