I believe M564 were SLR Plus/Servo Wave, they also had a chunkier barrel screw than the M563. Based on the spec sheet mention of Servo Wave, I think M564 are correct. Note that the cheaper off limits has LX levers without servo wave.

That's a shame, but thank you for checking. I'm starting from frame, forks and seatpost, so most parts are needed. Have already grabbed a NOS Vetta SL, and hub/rim for front wheel. Looking for a second rim, pair of tan wall kevlar Z-max tyres, plus the LX groupset. Planning to ride it...

Yes, should have said, silver. The NOS one I picked up is a bit scruffy, which probably explains price. Could be viewed as cheap or, as it triggered me starting to rebuild the bike (which has been sat as frame and forks for years), very expensive.

Rebuilding my 1994 Dawes Edge, trying to stick to original spec. The LX/XT variants that year came with a one piece stem/bar combo, possibly unique to those bikes. Feels like a long shot, but wondering if anyone has an original set lying around.

As title, looking for a Campag Stheno rim, 32h with green label (I believe they also came with purple label). NOS preferred as long as price is sensible (recently picked one up for £25 on ebay), but will consider anything in good condition.

Happy to split this if anyone is looking for parts. Forks and wheels are the bits that are most likely to be of interest.

Price drop to £150 or offers

My wife has decided to part with her Cannondale, which I think is a 1996 F1000. It's had various upgrades over the years so is a bit of a mish-mash of modern(ish) and old, but a good starting point for a project. Frame - well used. Key point to note is that it has had a disc mount added...

Recently retrieved from my parents' garage, seems a shame for it to go in the bin. Free if you can collect from south Shropshire, or happy to post to mainland UK for £4. In reasonable condition, I was still using it when it was put on the shelf, but obviously now old so I'd only trust it for...

Went to visit my father-in-law in the South Lakes this weekend, while putting the recycling away he reminded me he had these two sat in the garage. They're both in good condition, with the Peugeot nudging into very good. Doesn't look like they've had many component changes. Unfortunately an...

How about £20 posted to mainland UK? Open to offers as well

My parents just dug this out the garage, thought it might be useful to someone. Generally good condition but obviously pretty old, I wouldn't trust it to provide crash protection but could be a nice accessory for your classic bike Size label long gone, but I'm usually a medium or large...

Had these sitting in the cupboard for ages, but never wear them. Both still perfectly functional, but best paired with a bike from the era. Elastic not as springy as it once was, a small tear in the fleece, a couple in the windproof, see photos for detail. Size medium. £15 posted for the...

Thanks, guessed that might be the case, but didn't think parts would be interchangeable.

Set of Hayes G1 brakes in good working condition. As you can see from the pictures, these are well used, mainly cosmetic damage, but one of the lever blades is slightly bent. Could be a good starting point for a refurb, definitely better than keeping them in my shed. Hard to find any of these...
