***UPDATE***

Seeing these mint ones sold on ebay for $199 usd, I decided to drop mine down to $80 flat plus shipping, which to the UK would be around $28.


Hello everyone,

I bought a couple tyres from kingroon on here, and thought I should make a couple items available in return. I usually use Ebay, for obvious reasons, but I figured, why not save a few bucks while saving someone else a few bucks from the forum I'm a part of...anyway, here we go:

These are a complete set of Avid Tri-align cantis (front and back) along with the tri-dangle cable hangers and the stradle cables. All mouting harware is included. Kool-stop pads are also included, and have plenty of life left as you can tell be the pics and the wear indicator. All you have to do is mount them and go.

That said, there is some damage, it is to the adjustment faceplates/ washers that hold the pads. Some gorilla overtightened the bolts cracking the faceplates in the process :x
One crack is clear though, the other plate has just the start of a crack. I took macro shots from a couple cm away, and then took some shots from a foot away you can have perspective as to the gravity of the crack. I still rode these for a short time after the cracks...but the completely cracked one had to be left solidly in all the way, brakes had to be constandly adjusted accordlingly. PITA. (the good news is that these can be replaced- I have a set of them off my other set, but they are in silver or purple, and if I were to include them in this set, it would raise the price...I'm sure someone has extras or an idea on an acceptable remedy...at least I hope)

Due to the damage, I'm asking $120 (USD) for these. Price is not negotiable at this point, but that can change. Shipping will be a direct quote from the USPS, I won't charge more than it cost me. Thanks

comments and bumps welcome...even if they are somewhat negative- I can handle it :wink:

Hope those are enough pics, haha. I wanted to take shots from every angle and in different light sources (sunglight,flash,shade, etc).
 
:( back up they go....buyer had other obligations, so these are available once again.

I'll give them a few more days, and then it's off to the bay :?
 
If I was to replace the cracked washers/faceplates with non-cracked ones from another set (in faded purple ano), would that be desirable?

The price would go up slightly...any interest?

Friday is the last date before they go on ebay

do you still have the Levers if so I'd love to work out a package price.

I'm sorry, the levers have been sold and shipped...they are on their way to the UK as I write this.

But this brakeset is still available, and I believe I will have a spare set of front brakes which the washers/faceplates can be sourced from to replace the cracked parts.

Let me know if you're interested; thanks.
