Re:

"Will require repair work" !

How much steel is actual left in that thing? It must be 95% iron oxide.

oh come on, surely the rusted mudguard stays or the corroded front lamp have a look-in here?!! the ancient plastic pump clips that you got free with zefal atb pumps, perhaps?!

Re:

Or the reflectors....who is it on here that says, 'if you split, I'll take the reflector'?

Think this guy could be taking the p*ss instead....

Awww i feel a bit sorry for him, what a load of junk.

The only item he has a bid on is rusty westwood rod brake rim, which makes sense because rod brakes only work well on rusty rims!

maybe the rust acts like an early version of ceramic coating.

haha! Sort of...
I rebuilt a raleigh roadster from 1955 once, i got new 26 x 1 & 3/8ths rims and everything. It was lethal. Even the old style leather rain cheater pads on new chrome is soooo dangerous. I put the old wheels on in the end and the brakes were great... if a little 'grabby'....

Don't buy the rim folks ! The lack of eyelets is bound to make a weak wheel
