Protoype Spectrum Racing Hubs for sale - £100 ono

Prototype Spectrum Racing Hubs

Something a little more unusual for those of you that have a thing for Hubs and these come with a back story, which for me, making an item more interesting. Here, I have a set of prototype Spectrum Racing Hubs using a Shimano Freehub body that never went into final production. Who is Spectrum...

Did you have no luck finding the invoice for the frame repair on the DOG BOLOX...? Or asking Roberts to provide one for me....?

 

[AlexTemper]

Can't find the invoice here, or down in Devon. Not had a chance to call up as been busy with admin stuff.

 

[sinnerman]

I thought about calling for you, but thought it was best coming from you rather than a prospective buyer. Obviously these wheels now for sale and not with the frame, made me ask the question.

Shall i keep looking then....?

 

[AlexTemper]

You can call if you want, makes no odds to me TBH. I'm in no rush to sell it and not that motivated to do so at the current price.

 

[sinnerman]

Im sorry you feel that way, having seen the frame with the snapped tube, its because of the amount of money involved, i would like to have been able to confirm the tubes replacement rather than repair. And to be honest, £1000 is no small amount for any repaired frame.

 

[AlexTemper]

That's ok, is nothing personal.

 

[sinnerman]

Its Ok I haven't taken anything personal, I'm simply trying to buy something at an agreed price you have for sale.
I'm sorry I'm looking for a little more reassurance on how it has been repaired, sadly i have been caught twice in the past and ironically both with Roberts frames, and for considerably less money.

Putting this up for sale with two options; Complete bike - £1,600 Frame, Fork and Stem - £1,200 The Frame and Fork are SE versions, not just the frame. Only 16 ever produced and 10 sold to public. Full details can be found here in this thread...

What you have looks lovely and id like to buy it.
As mentioned, having seen the frame broken and in its original paint, a repair i thought was possible, but not preferable.

I'm sure many will be happy to have it to look at, but riding as good as they do, id like it as a rider, with the Columbus MAX tube being in such short supply, all i was looking for to complete the sale was actual conformation either from you or the repairer, a new Columbus tube was sourced and fitted and the old one not repaired.

I'm sorry you feel £200 off the asking price makes its less worthwhile too you,
but a call to the repairer to forward on a copy of your invoice, would take less time than posting the wheels for sale on this thread, and i could have paypal the funds straight too you.
