I need the space so the following has to go:

1966 Mercian frame, fork and Campag headset. Frame has patina consistent with being 46 years old but nothing structural (by far the worst is the left chainstay but I've poked it with a screwdriver and it is sound). The Campag headset is smooth and tight and all threads are good (e.g. the b/b came out smoothly). Lovely half chrome on the forks and cool Campag dropouts. Size? 61 cm seat tube, 59.5 cm top tube. Oh, and can throw in the Huret downtube shifters and a functional seat post if that helps.

After £150 collected from Hereford (can post at cost which now Post Office prices have gone up seems to be about £15). SOLD

Weinmann 730 calipers that are fine if a bit grubby - perfect if you want to use 700c wheels with the above frame. £20 posted.

Suntour Cyclone rear mech, grubby but would clean up nicely. £15 posted

Gran Compe brake levers - gum hoods are a bit perished (the one in the left of the photos is the worst) but I reckon they could be saved with some care. Levers look good, blades unscratched. £15 posted. SOLD

Will obviously be happy to combine the lot and knock a few quid off the total.
 
Dibs on the Gran Sport brake levers please - will you ship to France? Obviously I'll cover the costs.

Yes, I am Big Ted and you can claim your prize :D

The frame 'sold' just over two weeks ago. There were various reasons why payment couldn't be made ('NatWest problems', 'can't set up a Paypal account', 'can't get to the bank until Friday' etc.) and I finally gave up when there was no response to PMs.

Got to make even more room now the Gazelle Champion Mondial has arrived and someone is coming to see it thgis afternoon.

Just to clarify for anyone reading this; I haven't "undibbed", I've paid for what I asked the seller for dibs on. And I'm not from London and haven't been trendy since 1991... :cry:

Hah, this happens all the time....The best is 'dibs for a friend'. I've never seen one result in a sale yet.
