Student Bob
Old School Hero
I can't be ar$ed with creating a new pre-98 For Sale thread, and this lot could do with a bump anyway, so here's a potential treat for those bored enough to be on the FS or W 1998 section....
Suntour XC Pro thumbies, 7/8 spd, indexed or friction, 152gr. These were top of the Suntour range and lot’s prettier than the industrial shimano equivalent
in terms of era, they sat in the Suntour range pretty much unchanged between 1993 to 1995 AFAIK.
I’m after £40 posted via PP gift.
Clicky piccie….
And here's the rest of my tat....
All prices are posted within the UK. PP gift. PMs etc. First come first served!!
Shims - one BNIB in USE 25.0-26.8 £6 and one NOS nameless 27.2-31.8 £5
Flite ti – photo makes it look worse than it is! It’s in really good condition, having had my skinny arse on it for about 20 dry miles. No scuffs or marks. £30
2001 Schwinn Homegrown Pro 17” with headset and ti brake bosses £150
These frames were the weight-weenies wet dream when they came out, the lightest alloy frame available at a skinny 2.9lbs. Mine is slightly heavier at about 3.3lbs due to the new shiny pearl white Bob Jackson respray, but it still built into a 17lbs bike….
Other, less important, numbers include…. 19” CTT about 16 1/4” CTC 22” TT, BB is 73mm, takes a 31.8mm front mech and 26.8mm seatpost.
This DOES include the brand new Schwinn/Cane Creek ICBM headset, ‘cos you’ll be needing one, and the titanium brake bosses. I’ve also got the headtube and seat tube badges which’ll be included, but no stickers, as I haven’t found any on eBay yet – although they do come up.
Frame is in generally good condition, but there are a two dinks on the downtube – I’ve pictured the worst and the other was hard to photo as it was so small.
