Frames now been SOLD.

Not from my knowledge or witnessing it, but I can't say how the young man got hold of the bike in question. Iv removed the thread post as iv realised thieves check this thread as much as victims, it could tip him off, but I'm certain this will be resolved.

.

When I bought it the previous owner hadn't made me aware of any repairs done to the frame, when I went back and asked if they had anything done to it, he then informed me of the repairs that had taken place on the chain stays. This was only after I read the supposed 'original' sales thread for the Lo pro highlighting the crack on the chain stay.

Price drop. Bump

PM incoming

Great detective work hugo!! This made my day.

Haha Likewise, yeah couldn't have timed it better myself.

Owen this morning in Kensington gardens, colossi is looking great.

Mash on South lambeth road around 10:30pm, breakless.
DAS'd... Why no skid?

Haha yeah I was wondering when this would come up, @ninelives I saw you but wasn't sure if it was socially correct for me to shout your name seeing as I was queuing for the breakfast club with my Mrs.
I see you are back on your Lo pro, what happened to the anchor?

Yup realised all of that, the crack in the chain stay has been sorted from what I was told by the previous owner,

Haha perfect, I was worrying my spot had gone unnoticed.
Yeah new wheel, well the wheel I had on my back was the rear road 650c Trispoke im now selling.
Had the front on my build.
But yeah nice spot, sure I'll run into you again at some point.

That's a good point, I missed that detail, there are no shims being used on this frame, but again I don't want to dig a grave for myself.
As I said my mrs has ridden the frame for 6 months with no problems so essentially If it was to fall apart it would have in the first couple of months.

Iv just read this thread and I'm personally shocked, when I bought the frame I clearly was mis informed about the defects, my apologies if it seems as though im trying to be a rip off merchant, genuinly not my aim whatsoever.
My Mrs has been riding this frame without any problems for half a year, none of the issues in the thread link above have jeopardised the ride quality of the frame.
Just to make it clear I did not buy this frame from the original owner or off the forum, just from a mate who wanted to shift it, clearly Iv been had, so In that case I shall lower the price as it still stands I have no use for the frame as its to big my other half.
Would be nice to keep it within the forum and a frame builder renovate it and bring it back to its full potential.
Cheers

I don't think its the same, but I could be wrong, when I bought it I wasn't informed of any repairs made to the frame, but as I said I could be wrong. None the less it's solid and hasnt given me any reason to be concerned .

Sold a while back im afraid pal.
Sorry.

True, im doing that myself, one of the benefits of running a 650c wheel haha

Definitely 650c

Up for sale is my Campag Tommasini crankset.
•170mm length arms
•144 bcd and comes with a gippieme 50t chain ring.
• The none drive side square tapering crown has a crack as pictured.
Still rideable as I rode it for a while before taking them off and getting something stronger.
If they can be restored they would make a beautiful crankset.
Because of that crack asking price will be......

£30

650c clincher TRISPOKE rear road wheel

Trispoke branded Trispoke
130mm spacing (I assume)
Axle not included.
A few cosmetic scratches but nothing major.
wheel runs true.

This would be ideal if you're looking for a 650c slave wheel, only the hub needs changing And shazam, a front 650c TRISPOKE
The wheel is identical to my front 650c TRISPOKE I have on my current build.
Bearing in mind the likelihood of a rear 650c road TRISPOKE not being desired, my asking price is just a measly.

£40
Collection in west London or central.
Paypal and cash accepted

So my Mrs has grown a little less fond of her Lo Pro due to it being a tad to big, hence why it is up for sale. The specs are as follows.

FRAME:
•55cm Bill Nickson Lo Pro
•120mm spacing on the rear and 110mm on the 650c forks.
•Large chip on the toptube due to a crash by which the bars swung around and chipped away at the frame. Iv checked with numerous bike shops, this does not jeopardise the safety of the frame. Perfect to ride.
• A couple minor chips on the Downtube and chain stays, expected as this bike was used regularly by my mrs.
All the major chips are pictured below none the less. As they say honesty is the best policy.
• Comes with a brand new bb, put in days ago and not yet ridden.
•Headset also included.
•And as a show of good favour I'll throw in the 650c wheel when the frame is bought. I'm not sure of the hub or rim brand but the bearings are good and the wheels true.

Pick up in central or Stockwell as that's where it's located.
Other destinations debatable.
