Hi all.
My first sale on here, although I've made a fair few purchases.
Having a bit of a garage clearout and got a few bits in need of new homes. All prices are posted to your door, payment by paypal gift preferred. Multiple purchases will of course result in a discount. So....
Knockabout/pub bike wheelset. Bought on here a few months ago. Nothing fancy but solid. Bit of a wobble but nothing a spoke key and some patience wouldn't sort. No name rear hub and rim, Marin Rockstar front hub and Ritchey rim (stickers have come off but it was Ritchey, honest guv!). Took an eight-speed cassette when I had them on my commuter bike. Yours for £24. **NOW SOLD**
Michelin City Protek 26 x 1.8 MTB road tire. Used on my commuter bike since Christmas. Now using semi-slicks instead. £6.
Specialized Ground Control 26 x 1.95. Bought on here last year. Very light use since. Tread is very good for its age, bit of cracking to the sidewall but generally 8/10 condition in my humble opinion. £8. **SOLD**
LX Crankset. Another one bought on here, this time a couple of years back. Tapers and threads pretty good but teeth not great. Middle ring slipped when I used them, but outer and granny were fine, despite not looking great. £12.
Seatposts x 3. Bog standard stuff but might do a job for someone. Left to right as follows: Kalloy 26.8, Specialized 26.2, Unbranded 30.0. £4 each.
And last but not least, the mystery box. Not so much of a mystery box actually as I'll tell you most of what's in it:
A bike's worth of cheap but functional cantilevers and levers. All entry level Shimano stuff but good pub bike fodder. Cable hangers etc all there.
VP-133 clipless cage pedals. One side of one will not engage. Might be fixable, might not. That's why it's in the box! Other three sides work fine.
Specialized quick-release seat collar and rear skewer. Both off a 2008 Rockhopper.
LX front mech. The classic black groupset. FDM565. 28.6.
RPM BB 68mm.
Some V-brake pads in there too and maybe some other stuff if I can find it. All the above goes together if possible for the princely sum of £12. Picture here:
That's the lot. Register interest here and PM me to secure it. Thanks for looking. More pics here if you need them: http://www.flickr.com/photos/78792218@N ... 775786292/
