Hey, i'll take the deda bars and stem, i'm in Sydenham so can collect tomorrow if that works?
-
In case you find a rear only i have a nice front wheel for sale here
-
If i can keep my recent escapade into MTB'ing going I'm pretty sure i will be going from HT to FS when funds allow. Not because riding HT has helped me learned all the basics and now i'm ready to take it to new "extremes" but because i'm shit and the amount i ride will remain that way for a while and all i care about is having fun. That's not easy on a red at BPW when you don't know what you doing and you have no rear suspension.

Here you go, 39t Shimano, plenty of life left, 130 bcd (measures 76.4mm between holes)two. Choice of two QR rear skewers, i would say the silver option would be the better/more secure option. How does £8 posted for ring and either skewer sound?
-
I had this built up as part of an ideal road fixed wheelset, only the front is available but may be of interest?
-
Think i have both, beater stuff, i'll check tonight and get back to you

Chiang Mai is a blast from the past, i lived there almost 20 years ago. Quick googling comes up with loads of interesting bike stuff, back then i had a hot rodded Honda dream but no one rode push bikes! I used to have to run up Doi suthep most weeks, can already imagine how much more fun that would be on the bike. Me and the CAAD 8 just got back from Japan, time to start planning my next trip east.
-
Thread dredge, price drop and pics added.
-
@Dick let me know if you're keen and if you'd like some pics, would like to move these on, cheers.
-
No worries, cheers!
-
Tyres not available i'm afraid, might have some rotors spare if you need a cheap pair.
-
Still looking? I have some uncut Easton EA50 bars, think they're 660mm. Would like £15, only pic i have is on bike below, could take more later if intersted?
-
Hey,
got these Aksiums spare, Shimano freehub, would like £60. Could take more pics if interested.
-
Hey,
i've got a 90mm 3T Arx in vgc, as seen below, £25 plus post, any good?
-
Amazing frame, will make a great project.
Have you tried putting some wide handlebars in there and a beater front wheel to get some leverage (clamp wheel between legs, gently rotate bars)? Also IME some headsets exert a little clamping pressure when tightened, if you haven't already it might be worth slackening it off.

Having an afternoon kip on the weekend and woke up to this.
Contrary to the catflap i don't own a cat anymore so was somewhat surprised to find this jerk trying to enter my house whilst i'm lying there in full view. It literally kept putting it's paw on the step to enter but receded each time i yelled no at it. My girlfriend on the other hand went into full "so cute" mode, so i banished both of them to play in the garden. She then got the lecture on how you should never feed someone else's cat and it's not cool to pet someone else's animal without there permission. It's been back several times now to chill in the garden but we're doing our best to ignore it. Question is, is petting someone else's cat in your garden OK?
I now find myself looking at the window waiting for twatface as i've called it to return and brighten my day but i have a horrible feeling he/she comes from the questionable home that backs on to my garden and is most likely looking for a better gig.
Gonna ask around the neighbourhood and see if anyone knows who it belongs to. Condition wise it looks healthy but there's no collar and is clearly very young, there is also the possibility that it's an abandoned stray.
-
Cheers guys, considering how little time and money it's cost me i'm pretty pleased. Looking forward to a longer and lower cockpit when i get back.
-
Hey dude if you're not put off them i've got some new Zee's and matching B/B, fitted but never used, probably a few small storage/chain marks but otherwise mint. If your interested have a look online and let me know the cheapest you can find them for then we could work out a deal.
-
Thanks for the shout dude, i'd be all over this but i'm off touring in Japan next week!
Will definitely be up for something when i'm back, have a good one.
-
Hey, i've got a short cage rear mech and possibly brakes spare, both black 5800. Can send pics over later if you like?
-
Bike is ready for Japan!
And here it is in all it's contrasty glory, hopefully will take some better pics on tour
-
Looking really nice, +1 for trying yellow tape, Fizik matches Selle yellow nicely
-
I've got a Kinlin xr22t with MSW, Sapim laser spokes on Zenith hub, less than 10 miles use, lovely wheel but no longer needed, pm me if interested

Argos finally gets some TLC. Forum sourced CK headset and EAI cog fitted along with O.G forks and Sram caliper to resolve Shimano clearance issues. Road Runner bag is my current favourite bit of kit.
And the bike that just took me across Japan faultlessly deserves a pic.
