tell you what I just gave it a rough measure (paper and ruler, oldschool) and It came out at about 26. £30 is a bit high for me at the moment though.

I'll go measure now, but I am quite sure it is probably smaller than 26mm

Hi there, I'm most of my way through building a fairly cheap fixie, but I have reached a point where all I need is these two parts, as 26.2mm seatpost and a 1" quill stem. I already have a zenith 1" but it has a slightly too large clamp size, but I am not too sure what size it needs to be, so suggestions are welcomed. Removeable faceplate preferred as the bars already have tape and levers etc. Also I'm in cambridge so will probably need stuff posted. Thanks!

Indeed it is... Useful ones though, however I gave up on that hub in the end and bought another wheel. It does need new bearings though and I'm not too sure of size I need, it's an unmarked flip flop hub if anybody has any suggestions they're welcome :)

Ah, too late that frame would've been perfect for me. I'll still have these off you though "Dia Compte levers w/hoods - £12 ". Pm on the way

I'm guessing you don't want to post, but if so I do need a beater right now, so I would be interested

dibs screwon Freewheel – 17t, pm on the way. Cheers.

Hi, bought these a while back, but ended up making an 8 speed instead so I haven't used them. A bit scruffy, but fully functional. The left lever is for 2 chainrings at the front. The downshift part of the lever doesn't quite return properly, so you have to give it a small nudge, but it doesn't effect performance and could probably be fixed with some oil or if you were desperate you could file some of the metal brake lever away. Just looking to get my money back, so £70 including postage, bit less if you can pick up in Cambridge. Cheers. http://i42.tinypic.com/nx1dgm.jpg[/URL]

dibs bullhorns pm on the way

yeah, been seeing a few invisibles lately, due to the site update?

if sompob is not buying I would be interested

Hey, interested in both brakes, mks pedals and zenith stem (7,8,9 and 12). What price is the zenith quill stem? Also I am guessing tommmmmmm is taking the long reach one, but worth a shout.

also just checked sizes and dibs seatpost. Pm'd (sorry for double post)

I'd take both brakes depending on the reach, do you have measurements? I have 700c wheels on an old frame so looking for something like 70mm

Ok well I am quite eager to learn, but I think I'll have to leave it until the summer as this isn't looking practical for me right now. I have done a quick google search of 'one track' and got some catering companies etc, do you have a link to the sale? Thanks for the advice everyone!

I 'inherited' this hub from my brother when he left for uni, so I thought I would put it to good use. If you guys really think this hub will be unusable can you suggest a suitable replacement? A little disappointing really, I might just go with a ready built wheel.

Budget is closer to the mavic, hoping to have the rim and spokes come to less than £40, does that narrow it down a bit? I didn't realise I needed the rim first, so I have already learned something cheers!

Hi, I have not done much wheel building (as in, I've rebuilt just 1 wheel). I have a decent 32h fixed hub (pics below), and am hoping to build up a wheel from it. I know I want a black 32h 700c rim (suggestions welcome), but I really don't have a clue what size of spokes I will need, can anybody point me in the right direction? Cheers!

Spuds pm'd also!
Plastic Pedals, I agree but I am only looking to try one out on a beater to decide if I like that style, never used one before.

mate I only need 1 for a fixie too so we could split a pair of these if you like: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=36189

I have to agree, that stem is disgusting. I wouldn't go for flat bars myself, I can't see any advantages of them over say drops or bullhorns. I do have a thing for blue bikes though if that's the colour you're headed for.

Yeah, probably would be! It's only a side project at the moment, so I was just curious when I saw the thread title. With any luck I'll free up some time for it before the summer and get one, where would you suggest is best for mtb rims?

Dibs airwings Pm on the way

Sorry don't think that rim will do, I was hoping for a 40 spoke for my tandem. Cheers anyway!

dibs on the "funky colour" seat, Pm on the way. Also the title of the thread says 650c rim, still got that?
