Last call, eBay beckons this weekend.

Hi all, Wondered if anyone here might like this before it hits eBay? Original Chris King Steelset. Their heavy duty headset that will famously outlive any frame you put it in. Rare and beautiful thing, this is the early '99 - early 2000s bronze colour with white etched logos, later ones...

Hi all, Having a clearcut - hoping this will find a good home. SDG S2000 Ti in red. June '95, in excellent condition Tiny bit missing off the bottom of one 'I' is all there is to report (left side nose, pictured). Was fitted to a very lightly used road bike, don't think it's ever seen mud. No...

I’ve got a near mint 841 here if it’s any interest?

Bit of an update following the first ride this weekend! Got invited down to Thruxton for the 10 mile TT along with some other pre-96 'bandits' to mark 25 years since their culling by the UCI. Was slow as anything (mostly owing to a questionable training regime of booze and next to no exercise...

Comete en route from France - anyone got some shoes knocking about? Cheers!

Great to see this! I've an earlier Gold Medal frameset sat in the shed waiting a build for my girlfriend - ideal inspiration. Look forward to seeing the rest coming together.

Hey all, Looking for two things I know I might struggle with... First, some TIME TBT shoes, UK 11 / EU46/47... A pair of red & white or the lairy red / yellow EQs would be the dream but I'll consider most things, Carnac / SIDI / Adidas / whatever. Second up, a 700c Mavic Comete, 7/8speed...

Hey James, I've got a 135mm Cinelli XA if that's of any interest? Pretty good nick, would be happy with outright sale or swap for a shorter one. Matt

Had a busy weekend on the Lotus bringing it back into the land of the living - having just checked back to page one, though, I should probably re-visit where this is coming from! The whole story's back there, but in essence my dad commuted on this thing for years. That combined with a couple...

Bargain - 531c frame assuming it's a Gold Medal, too. Recently picked up one of those as a cheap frameset for my girlfriend and am very impressed with it.

Thought it would've been but the pictures looked a bit rough! If that's the case then you're already there. Clean up & crack on.

You'd be surprised what you could do with that badge. The paint's lovely and really well aged so I'd be reluctant to re-paint it straight off the bat. Good clean, bit of light wire brushing / metal polish to take the edge off the rusted edges and a clear coat to protect it - a weathered badge...

Close but no cigar on that I'm afraid - needs to be a 305 as it's all Zap-era stuff I'll be using. Cheers though!

Thanks for the offer! I have however just got one sorted thanks to a previous offer in this thread :) Still after the headset should anyone have one.

Fortunately too small or me, couldn't move on without saying how gorgeous that frames is though! What an absolute stunner, that'll make an incredible build.

Little update having picked up some bits and pieces since the last time. Still searching for: Dead or alive Mavic 840 - I have a very good 841 here I'd be willing to swap, or would rebuild this into a short cage 840 should anyone have a scrap derailleur for spares 305 headset complete with...

Re: Cheers Nick, right pedals wrong colour unfortunately! @MRGRUMPY, think I'll politely decline the headset if that's ok - really appreciate the offer, but I'm gonna try and hunt down something with the top cover, can't imagine they come up too frequently on their own... Think I'm about...

Cheers both! Seems the forum's changed and I can no longer send PMs (a sound reminder to use the forum more!) @MRGRUMPY - that's a great offer, thank you - I'm just waiting to hear back on another, but that's definitely of interest. I'll let you know asap. @mdevineng - very interested in...

Little update on the Lotus front, starting to search out the remaining pieces of the puzzle! Getting the bike sorted to hopefully attend some of the BHPC / Goodwood Bandits events this year, have pulled all the Shimano 600 gear (bar headset, bb and shifters), and have started getting its...
