Yeah, he seemed like a genuine fellow. But never answered emails and I always fobbed off by his side kick when I phoned. Before I finally picked mine up, I called twice during the week answered on the morning to remind them that i was coming and to confirm it was ready. When I got there it...

There was another case in The Guardian a few years back: https://www.theguardian.com/money/2019/dec/17/raleigh-classic-cycle-repair-deposit-lost

10 quid! 😯

There's a website called Peugeot Bike boom which has lots of catalogues which might help with the model. This is mainly a UK forum so it's difficult to put a value on it for your market but it's looks like a fairly basic late 70s model.

Looks like a UO-8 with upgraded wheels and crankset.

Very nice. I don't think it's an Ellis Briggs as their frame numbers were stamped like this (from 1953) :

I have a pair of the REW Reynolds shoes which are very similar to the Arturo. Not had any problems with the rubber sole. I've had them re-soled without issue too.

Double lockdown theme here: This was my first ride on the Ian Piper I bought in a moment of Ebay therapy/general bored at the start of last summer after convincing myself I needed something a bit sportier than my more practical Condor. Soon after I realised that I was actually feeling quite...

Re: I put mine on a Strada on a set of old wheels (without inner tubes) and left them for a few days before then fitting them to the bike which seemed to take some of the pain out of the process.

Re: Shimano 600ex chainset or similar Thanks anyway - I should've been clearer.

Re: Shimano 600ex chainset or similar That could work. Is it Shimano 600ex ? The arabesque version (sorry, I should have mentioned that bit before)

Re: Shimano 600ex chainset or similar Great. Zap away!

Hi I'm after a shimano 600ex double chainset (170 or above) with 52/42 or roughly similar (i.e. 50-53/38-42). Also happy to consider Ofmega, Campagnolo, etc, of the same era. ...maybe even a Stronglight or TA triple... Cheers!

Re: No problem. Glad you found something.
