As a possible suggestion, you could buy this (my tandem) and canabilise it for parts:
http://www.lfgss.com/thread63921.htmlMine's an old sun frame too I think thanks gav...but whilst all your parts would fit I don't need everything and want more modern (or long life) parts for the rest. So the hunt continues...
3 or 5 speed 27" sturmey wheelset would be a good start...anyone?

thanks for all the useful info El_Diablo. I'll hold on the wheel for now (as think I'll be spending so long building/sorting other bits I'm not up for building a wheelset (yet))...
The headset shell on it at the moment does look like it would just clamp onto a stem and a 1 inch headset nut on the top would hold everything in place. But I'd need an oversized stem...I think they exist...I'll get onto the CTC guys and see what comes up.
I'm thinking of north road style bars for this - laid back sunday riding seems more likely for this than getting my fiancé into racer mode!

This ^ ...needs to get out in the sunshine! It has a shopping list though as I'd prefer not to carry it around. If you're looking for a trade on bits let me know and I might have something to keep you happy so let me know what you're looking for.
1/. eccentric BB for the front
2/. Rear threadless bb - 73mm wide and 35mm diameter (ish)...I can't find the actual size anywhere but a 73mm threadless would solve my problems!
3/. 2x seatposts both 26.2mm diameter
4/. Stoker stem (missed one on eBay recently - grrrr)
Cheers y'all
