This morning’s bounty…

Feel free to hijack mine, I sorted it in the end

Cheers Phil

Cheers man, I’m gutted but I need to make way for an incoming project so this has to go

I have a pre 2015 one that I could sell

I’ve been going back and forth on this for ages but it’s time to move on my 565.

It’s a fast and responsive bike to ride, lugged carbon, lairy decals, peak HHSRB. I have a Look 595 and a steel Serotta and only really ride those two, but whenever I ride this I’m amazed by how lively and snappy it is.

In Look money it is an XL which equates to a top tube of 58c-c and a head tube of 18cm.

It’s currently built up with a mechanical chorus 11 speed groupset but I will be stripping that shortly. I can always leave it on should any potential buyer want to test ride the frame prior to purchase.

Overall the frame and forks are in very good condition bar a few marks commensurate with age. One thing to mention is that there is a very very slight bit of compression on the steerer - this is how it came to me - I sought a few opinions from a number of mechanics who all said they thought it was nothing to worry about, and since then I’ve ridden it for thousands of kms with it without worry - I have a loooong expanding plug installed to ensure the steerer is supported wherever it is clamped.

I have the original Look conical headset spacer but currently the frame has a gb tester slamthatstem topcap fitted. Still quite a lot of room on the steerer to play with should you want to adjust the height.

It’s a nightmare uploading photos from my phone, but I’m happy to send hundreds of photos via WhatsApp or email.

£375 for the frame and forks collected in London: happy to post at cost.

Any questions, please just ask

Cheers for the tip. Unfortunately I don’t have access to a 3D printer

I’ve read that the standard wahoo cleats are backwards compatible with the pre-wahoo pedals…. are the cleats any good or are they rubbish? Been trying to find stock online of the old yellow walkable cleats but not much luck so far

Another snapped c spring, this time 40km into a 210km ride. Did I do the sensible thing and turn back? Of course not. I am never going out without a spare c spring in my tool roll again

You're of course totally right about the tyre choice, however if you've got beef with all white everything there's plenty of hip hop dons who disagree

Hehehe. Taking issue with Look decals is like crabs in a barrel...

Very fair price, GLWS

Agree on the corsas but I had these knocking around. SMPs are strictly for the heads

I hear you on the faux gum wall - but they’re cheap(er) and more reliable than corsas. I normally run gp5000 on these but had the schwalbes knocking around and the old ones needed swapping out

The fork is HSC6 btw!

Nah it’s a Shimano 11-28

Can I offer this up for consideration? I’m well aware that the saddle, tyres and 10mm of uncut steerer might work against my favour but consider them mom’s spaghetti

Thanks for the tips all, much appreciated

I’m trying to piece together a Campagnolo Super Record 11 speed EPS groupset, does anyone have a spare V3 interface unit, charger and possibly even shifters they’re looking to move on? Or even just a pointer for where to pick up a V3 interface unit as they seem to have sold out everywhere online.

My partner and I had an offer rejected on a place this week. If we want to put an offer in on another place can we use the same AIP? The offer on the new place would be approx 50k lower than the offer we made on the first place so in theory the original AIP should be fine to show as evidence of our funds? Apologies if this is a stupid question

Any thoughts on how to repair this properly? I bought a second hand EPS derailleur but the seller didn’t make it clear that the cage has been previously repaired… looks alright but would prefer a more substantial fix

My mate had his Cannondale stolen last night from outside his flat (in a secure hallway). He chased them for fifteen minutes to Stepney Green when they pulled a knife on him and started chasing him back. It has an XT groupset on it and an Old Man Mountain rack on the front. Please DM me if you see it anywhere
