I sure could use these on the late '70s Nishiki Pro frame that EastHill gave my wife. :)

Let me know ...

If Bob passes, I could use the brake calipers :)

I'm afraid I've already got it boxed up with BobH's address on it. This forum moves fast!!!

Yup, post anything and your guaranteed a PM about it within 30 seconds just about, PS: real generous of you to give away a nearly complete good quality gruppo, kudos!

Free (to a good home) for the cost of postage. I have a bit of Weinmann pinkish, lined and wound cable housing. Should be a perfect match for some of the metallic, pearl rose bikes I've seen in the pink bike thread, such as northbend's gorgeous fixed gear, or badmother's 9-12. I have enough to do at least two friction shifting bikes with non aero levers.

PM me if interested and in about a week, I'll pull two names at random to send the stuff to.

I have a set of Shimano 600 Arabesque crank arms (no rings) in a bit funny not-quote-silver anodized color (slightly goldish, not the standard color). They have self-extractors included. Tapers are fine. The pedal threads are a bit munged at the pedal side but I am able to screw pedals in and I think they may work ok. I have no idea of the history, I picked them up at a swap meet a few years ago. Yours for the cost of shipping.

EDIT: CLAIMED

sonatageek and northbend are the two winners for the housing. PM's sent.

I was so tempted by the housings, very cool stuff.

Funny ... :p

I've added "Tigerprawn" to my will. I'm feeling pretty good though (as the box of wonderful Campagnolo goodness from "same time" arrived and I now have more to do), so don't expect them anytime soon.

Thanks again Brian!

hahaha!

My small offering. Kinda a cool little Cannondale saddle bag. Very tiny for you minimalist. It's fade (probably from the sun?), but still works well enough. I'll take a picture once I get my camera back.

Sending to J. Hughes!

Do trade posts belong in here?

23skidoo 06-29-09 09:42 AM

I'll take that bag Tigerprawn, unless it's already gone, that is.

No. Go into the Classic & Vintage Sales and you will find a ISO/For Trade thread.

bigbossman 06-30-09 10:09 AM

Does anyone have a need for pedals with 1/2" spindles? I have a few I'd like to get rid of - nothing fancy or exotic, but you can have them if you need them.

ALL GONE

Saddle bag goin to J.hughes!

I know this isn't much, but is there any interest in a Centurion anatomic saddle? It could be yours for the cost of shipping.

I will need some time to find a box as I just threw out all the boxes from the move. Saddle has been claimed

I am offering up the frame, fork, seatpost and binder bolt/clamp on this bike I just bought for parts.

It is a Zebraknenko with butted chromoly tubes, and is for a tall rider.

It has a dent in the top tube right near the head lug, which I will be glad to photograph for anyone that wants to see it. My unprofessional opinion is that if it fit me, I would still ride it...

There are some spots where the paint is corroded a bit, and again, I will take pictures if anyone is interested before committing to pay shipping.

The seatpost is a straight post (no integrated clamp).

I will take measurements but I am getting ready to go out of town, and all I can say is that the seller listed the stand over at 35.5 inches, and that seems about right, and that is with 700x28c tires.

This is the Ebay listing, there are a couple of pictures that don't tell you much about the frame: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...EOIBSA:US:1123

I will do my best to ship it as inexpensively as possible, but shipping expense is up to the recipient.

I am thinking of keeping the headset, but I will entertain pleadings to keep it with the frame/fork.

EDIT: Within 20 minutes I have had two different requests for the frame, so it is no longer available. I will leave this message here until I am sure it is in a new home. But for now, there is a recipient, and an alternate in case he backs out. I thought a frame this big with some minor issues would last a little longer. :)

you know looking at that Zebrakenko I'm not entirely sure that Little belongs in your username.

Although my name is intentionally ironic, since I do weigh as much as two average cyclists, I do not have the height to ride that bike without significant risk to my tender bits. It was after all bought for parts (and to offer the frame here). If the frame were perfect, I might have done a trade instead of pay it forward, but it was going on here either way. ;)

miamijim 07-11-09 10:58 AM

GONE.

Cannondale frame: 56cm C2C.

As seen in the picture. I know nothing about it other than its red, yellow and has my greasy finger prints on it.

I dont know how old it is, dont know what model it is. I know nothing.

I dont even know what shipping costs to you zip code would be. My zip code is 33647, if you go to ww.fedex.com you can probably figure out shipping costs.

Frame: free
Brown Box: free

Shipping: On you...
