Thanks for the info. Found a thread here with similar paint jobs: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/geoffrey-butler.425099/

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/205026346492 A bit of a mishmash. Biopace on what cranks? Aluminium frame but a saddle typical of Dawes and the like?

Got loads of 26" retro parts hanging about and figured I'd build something up for my daughter. I know the Hahanna was available in 14", and lots of the GT range was available in 14.5" Who else made tiny frames? Not much is coming up on eBay!

Polar CS100 heart rate monitor with speed and cadence sensors. Only used for 500 miles then left in the drawer for a year. All working fine, nothing broken, no scratches on display. New battery. £45 posted UK.

Trying to replace the bearings. Removed freehub, non drive side axle part, circlip. Now left with a shiny axle sticking out of the hub, bearing each side. It is going to need some force to remove. Does it remove to the drive side or non drive side?

Any problem running a 10 speed rear derailleur on an Ultegra 6500 9 speed setup? Jockey wheels seem to be different.

No 6005 mentioned?

I bought one of these from Ribble. I sent it back and they gave me a refund. I currently have a Planet x version. CO2 part works fine, but it takes forever if you use the pump part. Small and light though. If I'm out for a longer leisurely ride I'll take a larger pump, very similart to the...

Has Gordon Brown had botox?

Very dodgy. You should tell the police that a vehicle without road tax was driving down your road and that they were looking in peoples gardens and stuff. OK, it won't get anywhere...
