Different direction, so I guess Swiss? I had to pick up a threadless BB as I couldn't find a Swiss BB with a short enough spindle for chainline.

Have also had 3 seatposts trying to find the right size... doh.

Actually just realised that the plus at the beginning of the serial number is probably as Swiss cross. So it might be Swiss...

Just started a winter ss bike build and picked up a NOS french frame that looks like 70s/80s. The paint wasn't finished as it doesn't appear to have a top coat, so no decals.

Anyway, no idea who made it so wondering if anyone can help. Here's what I know:

1. BB thread is 35x1 so I guess that makes the frame French
   
2. 126mm spacing
   
3. Serial number is on a plate on the back of the seat tube with the no. +26512
   
4. Some pics of the lugs and dropouts that might help
   
   

Cheers!

totally understand, but the offer is there if the price is right!

If you end up splitting, I'd be interested in the rear mech?

1. SRAM TT900 carbon brake levers. Pretty much brand new - took them off a new bike when I was swapping groupset, so not even ridden. £50
   
2. Garmin Forerunner 10 GPS watch & cable - great condition £50
   
3. Ortlieb Zip City bag (23L) - decent condition. A few marks on the outside, and the internal pocket's stitching has come away a bit, but doesn't affect waterproofing etc. £30
   
4. 4ZA Stratos Saddle. Used for a couple of years but decent condition £10
   
5. Ritchey Comp road bars - 42cm c-c - a few clamp and tape marks but just cosmetic stuff - £10
   
6. 100mm Stem - £5
   
   

Collect from SE22, or can bring to work in W1. Or possibly maybe deliver within reason.

Fair point - I'll give it a go. Thanks!

Got the same problem with my Veloce Powershift - skips right to the bottom. £58 on Chicken Cycles for a replacement body, ~£80 for a new set of Veloce shifters. Is it worth the hassle for the sake of saving £20? Looks like a bit of a pain...

Sorry - now sold. Thanks for interest.

(Should have mentioned - unfortunately the fork steerer was cut quite short so there's about 37mm left showing. Enough to fit a stem of course, but no room for spacers)

Hi,

Paul Milne alu road frame for sale with carbon forks and FSA headset. Quite a few scratches and chips on the frame but looks decent and is otherwise in good condition.

Bought a few months back but wanted something with mudguard eyes for a winter trainer.

Measures 54cm seat tube c-t, 53cm top tube c-c, and the head tube is 16cm.

Collection only from Peckham area. Looking for £50.

I researched a whole bunch of weight saving upgrades for my road bike recently, and tyres and tubes came out as the cheapest. If you divide the weight saving by the cost you get a £/gram saved which makes it easy to compare the best value.

Second to that I picked up some Campag Zonda wheels which come in at 1500g on my kitchen scales and were £260 from bike-discount.de, which again makes for a pretty good value upgrade.

Generally seatposts, saddles, stems, bars etc. worked out really expensive. Some groupset stuff e.g. carbon crankset or planet-x's brake calipers can be ok, but nowhere near as good value as the above.

Ah no worries :)

It's these:

Not even put them on the bike - still in packaging.

is £20 fair?

got a pair of campy skewers when I ordered a set of Zondas. happy to let you have them - i'm just off Peckham Rye, or can bring them to work in Victoria.

Terrible news. I cross that junction almost every day and have often been worried about the lorries from the building site. Awful to see this recurring, predictable combination of cyclists killed by lorries turning left at junctions happening yet again :(
