I'm not seeing what's so great about the Roberts. Looks meh to me.

I was watching those, thought a christmas miracle would come and EVERYONE would be too busy putting up the tree to remember to bid.

NOS is overrated as I would be scared to use properly. Bikes is for riding.

I didn't know about that ^ I must say it's an issue for me too, but apparently they're phasing it out in N.Z so will try to support their industry instead of Australia.

Is that really the original (ie 60 years plus) paint, or restored to what it would have looked like originally? Surely respray?

I actually only need 3 bolts, so that makes it easier right?

Hello all,

Looking for a set of these, they are just bolts, no nuts. Was following some of these on ebay but went for silly money, anyone got any that they have spare?

Merry everyone!

When pricing my stuff I always sell for what it cost me in the first place.
If you want to make a profit add 10% - any more and this forum isn't the place for the sale.

Six billionth dibs.

Do you have any dustcaps with them?
If so i'll take them.

Sorry didn't mean to rubbish your thread - just my natural cheapskateiness.
They are great quality cranks, and they have been looked after well.

I would like them, but track supermarket does them for £160ish new, so a bit rich for my blood.
Really nice though!

I've seen these and never knew that was what they did...Thought it was a bit that had fallen off somewhere!

You be needing one of these:

Park tool FR-2 Might need a bit of filing, two strong blokes and a bench vice.

Well you only have to turn left.

Are the front and rear cones the same? TPI and axle width is the same on most vintage hubs, it's only the width of the nut itself that might be a problem - could you give me a couple of dimensions and i'll check them against my old hubs (no spares myself i'm afraid)

It might be worth buying another set of hubs just for the cones - I could ask on CTC, Retrobike, or place an advert in the VCC magazine if you want...

Those mudguards look useless though.

creamy muck muck

We all need less creamy muck muck - it is everywhere!

Don't leave things unattended.
Bikes go missing, as well as merchandise straight from the stalls at these do's - don't assume it's safe just because they're all cyclists.

These sales are a bit of a stitch up. I turn up bang on time and see a lot of stuff already bought.
It's a bit old boys club.

I have one of those with 'BSA' in the chainring, lovely chrome. Can post just let me know.

May we see a photo of the damage please...

Must be single ring 144BCD type - all lengths considered!
Also looking for endcaps and single chainring bolts.

Also looking for Royce stuff ... aren't I greedy?

Horrid pannier concept - why?

Mmmm. High centre of gravity-tastic!
