Looking for parts for a 1950's road bike rebuild. Chrome/silver and British if possible. Let me know if you have anything! Cheers Tom

Sold now.

Price drop! Make an offer if you're interested.

Anyone interested?

Thanks! Shame to see it go but she needs a new home.

So unfortunately I have to sell this bike. I built it up last year essentially because I felt like it but have no real use for it! Especially when I can put the money towards other bikes. The frame is a Sirius Sceptre 50cm, roughly equivalent to a 54cm, set up for someone 5 ft 8 here (i.e. me)...

Looking for fixed, I'm afraid.

I'm not quite as picky as the post may suggest! Looking to spend up to £30 or so on a rear wheel or £50 on a wheelset.

Hi I'm after a fixed rear wheel or wheelset for my commuter build. I'm preferably looking for something silver or chrome and box section would be ideal. After something sturdy, so weight isn't too important. Need to be in ok condition (i.e. not too much corrosion or rim wear). Let me...

I use the bike every day so I need to sell my extra wheels to buy a fixed rear and then get a new chainring etc. Can't really say if or when it would be as I've got this build to focus on so I'd recommend you keep looking and then I'll be in contact if it does become free. I will say it's...

Sorry, missed the second half of your message. I've only had the bike about a week so could do with most things! Mainly a rear derailleur (4-5 speed probably), single crankset, brakes as the current ones will be a too deep for 27 inch rims, saddle and a friction shifter would be good too...

Chute55uk: Looking for £80 and £55 respectively. May have something cheaper in the next week or two... If I get round to converting my commuter to fixed I can sell you the rear wheel for a fiver (it's not worth any more than that!). Will let you know, or is that too cheap? Quizzer...

I'm looking to sell a couple of wheelsets as it happens, though I want to sell as pairs. What are you after? I've got a set of Campagnolo Khamsins and a set of Campagnolo mexico 58's. Let me know if either of those are like what you want.

Hi everyone, first post, was recommended by another forum. I'm restoring a 1955 (ish) road bike and looking for as many period parts as possible. I need some 27 inch wheels as 700c are fitted at the mo. If from 50's or 60's then great but newer ones may be suitable too. Need to be in...
