I was in my local bike recycling centre today and spotted this



I was more interested in the tyres that it had on it



I had been looking for a set of these for my Ribble project as luck would have it they were mounted on 36 hole open 4cd's laced to 600 tri colour hubs exactly whats on my Ribble and get this it had a 9sp cassette on as well.



I got it home and pumped up the tyres and swapped the wheels over on the Ribble and went for a ride.



So have you bought a bike for a part only or am I just mad

More than once.

Example: I bought this just because I spotted the TA Cyclotouriste triple chain set in this seller's picture:

This is good now I feel we're all mad or this is the norm which it is, is yet to be decided but at least I'm not alone :D
