I would leave it as you got it until at least the 6 month mark. Or perhaps send him a notice and say if you don't hear anything from him in the next week then you're going to assume he no longer wants it.
4 months is a while but it doesn't seem long enough to assume ownership with out any kind of notification.
It's a tricky path to start walking down, and it could get really ugly fast.
Not in the slightest Shaun... I've cleaned it trued the wheels and removed the most hideous bar tape known to man. Yes I may even buy it the correct rear wheel...
The guy hasn't answered four of my messages, I've posted this today in the hope that someone knows him and can get him to get in touch.
I think it is reasonable that given the fact that it is taking up space here, it should at least be usable!
If the guy arranges the courier tomorrow, next week or whenever... I will box it and send it on - which is what I offered to do in the first place.
So you are correct, No legal title - hope is doesn't get nicked out of my garage...
Its nice of you to keep it. Your acting as a kind of friend really and as long as he gets it in the condition he paid for it in i dont see a problem with you using it etc.
You dont seem interested in selling it on so no problem there.
What details have you got for him? Previosu thread and whatnot? Address?? etc.
