    Sturmey Archer 3 speed hub - swap for beer

    This 3 speed SA hub seems to work, though I haven't been able to activate the gears as I don't have the cable thingy. If somebody wants to collect it from SP4 6BH I'll swap it for a 4-pack of Badger Golden Glory. It's on a 26" Malvestiti rim and has had some of the original silver spokes...

    Rear wheel, incl cassette. Good condition and very little wear to the braking surface. Smooth bearings. Comes with 10 speed Miche cassette (used and probably needs replacing.

    BOTH SOLD PP_Kaffenback Frame and Forks and Hollywood Rack

    KAFFENBACK Here is my wife's Kaffenback. She's just got a new cross bike so I'm imposing a bit of man justice and she has to rationalise her collection due to a lack of space. These are great bikes and ideal for Cyclocross and touring. Has some marks from racing but no structural damage...

    SOLD_Team Polti/Coppi/McDonalds Bidon

    As new condition Team Polti/Coppi/McDonalds Bidon. This is a real 'time warp' piece of cycling history. Fausto Coppi recently appeared to me in a dream and told me of a special bidon that he'd had made to include the blood, sweat and tears of several TdF winners, including Armstrong and...

    Muddy Fox Courier 1987

    Mmmmm. Nice! Genuine, original 1987 Muddy Fox Courier, the kind of bike you've either owned or need to own. The only non-original part I can find are the Specialised tyres, and even these look period. Paintwork shows the usual signs of enjoyment and I couldn't face stripping it and having...

    Mid-life crisis bike

    Hi As I'm rapidly approaching 40 I thought I'd 'surprise' myself by buying a road bike from 1970. Ideally it would be a British, French or Italian bike from a well-known manufacturer, and preferably with some kind of significance beyond the manufacturing date. For example, I know Eddy...

    Please help identify this bike...

    I think it's a Cinelli, at least it had Cinelli stickers on it. Glorious dayglo pink with Shimano running gear. The pic is of me racing at Eastway in 1989/90. I think I finished 15th out of 50 or so and it was the first time I'd ever seen a Klein Attitude or a Pace. I've still got the...

    NOS 1972 Starnord Type C 89K self build

    Somebody please buy THIS before I do. I wouldn't normally cross post to another site but this looks like a once in a lifetime chance for something NEW that's nearly 40 years old. It's nothing to do with me, I'd just rather a proper Retrolover got hold of it.
