Anyone got a set of decent, flat, uncut alloy bars spare that they could bring to CV ?, condition not important as i'll probably be painting them anyway.

what are they for- just got a set or silver bars- came from a clockwork orig. but don't look like hot rods- no decals but very light- but your no getting them if you are painting them

Just an idea i've got, doing the stem orange on the Clockwork was thinking about doing a pair of bars to match, re doing the forks all orange so the whole front of the bike would be orange.

How would that look ?, mince ?

kaisers your man for aestetics (sp?) not sure- it might look a bit OTT?

only kidding BTW about painting the bars, they are silver and if you like them and give me a few quid for them, then you can paint them pink and stick them up your chuff for all I care mate

going to bring some dosh and a load of crappy parts to see if anyone wants to swap for cold hard cash (very unlikely) :roll:

OK then, bring them tomorrow and i'll bring a can of pink paint

anyone got a spare topcap 1 1/8th silver or black would be nice but not bothered- screw in to NSFN type of deal?

Gaz, nae luck with the seatposts, 27mm too rare, 27.2mm too popular :roll:

Talked a guy into buying a lovely lime green Muddyfox Courier Comp with colour coded stem he was humming and hawing over. Should've asked for a sales commission from the Bikestation

Looking forward to being at CV, not looking forward to going there and coming back, Reliant is not a distance car :roll:

See ya the morra
