Yay! I'll get to see it firsthand. That looks marvelous. 
Nobody seems to want that Motobecane water bottle.
I'll sweeten the deal and add a set of NOS chromed steel toe clips. The catch - I only have sizes Small and Medium. You get to pick.

A pair of new IRC 24" x 1 3/8" gumwall tires. 85 psi.
Shimano Dura-Ace RD. Date code FE 6/78. Very little wear showing on the pulleys, but has a slight road scuff on the lower left corner and the low gear limiting screw holder is bent to where the screw doesn't contact the stop. Looks repairable or else use with a dork disc.
Sorry I don't have a picture to add, the camera is inop.
Used Suntour GPX rear hub from a '89 Centurion Ironman Expert. Smooth bearings. I can't remember if it's 32 or 36 hole, guessing 32 but I can check tomorrow. No skewer.

I'm in the process of moving, so no specifics... However, if you need anything drive train from entry level Japanese bikes of the 70's let me know.
I'll throw in some specific offers after the middle of the month.

So far I haven't found anything worth the postage here in my PHX collection (at least that I'm willing to part with), sorry folks.
I do have a used 32 hole tubular rim that I will donate for local pick up. Rims are too much $$$ to ship.

Nope. According to the rules - only one per customer, and I already have something on the way. I would like to see it though after you put it on a bike. That's one tres froid piece o' bling.

I have a box of derailleurs, brakes, chainrings (110, 130, Biopace), a couple of handlebars, shifter levers, and other things. Do I have to put something specific up, or can I just offer someone the chance to make a request and see if I can fulfill it?
PM me with with what you want/need.

Centurion
85 Centurion Accordo frame. Tange tubing with forged drops. There's a ding in the rattle-canned top tube. It wasn't rusted through or anything, but there were so many chips in the beautiful beautiful turquoise that I covered it up with the blue. Headset is in decent shape and the Shimano frictions are pretty functional and clean. 56 top and seat tubes.
You pay for postage and I'll ship it as slow and cheap as I can. I don't think the brutes on Craigslist would see the inner-beauty of this one so maybe one of you guys can offer it a home and give it some life.

Epiphany isn't until Sunday, so it's still Christmas.
I'll offer a pair of Shimano 105 calipers, BR-1050's, 39-49mm reach, clean, decent condition, missing the recessed allen bolts but otherwise complete with pads. These are mid-80's, single pivot, and I've given them the usual cleaning and polishing that everything gets before it goes into the spare parts bins.
Edit: Calipers are taken!

DOES ANYBODY WORK WITH A KIDS CHARITY?
You can tell them that you worked uphill 40 miles in both directions to get this running for them...needs minimal work and I missed the cutoff for Denver Kids donations this year. It's a cross between the 1st generation MTB's and dirt bike/BMX. Canti brakes: How cool is that!
Bob H. helped me I.D. this 1988 Schwinn Enduro that was made in Japan by Panasonic. I thought it would be nice to donate to a rugrat. I'll pay for shipping if somebody works with a kids' charity or knows of a needy little guy (Then again, maybe I'm a fool. Most kids would maybe think this is junk...or would they like it??)
