Happy to move this "one only" Bianchi down tube water transfer for a 60's era bike. It originated from Bicycle Speciaties so I'm pretty sure it should match an original with great accuracy. You gotta have the bike for it, of course.
PM me an address, it's on me.

All of the following is available for the cost of postage. First one to e-mail me at rccardr@cox.net for a particular item gets dibs.

Spare seatpost clamp (I think this is new)

Oh sorry, too late I saw "Please no PMs"

I'd like to please claim the trek bars and the cateye computer (and if it's not too greedy, the brifters -- if 7403 means 3x8). I will send an email.

I've gotten one of those old Cateye's to work. If you want, I can check the battery size.

I appreciate it, but I've got some other old working cateyes at home (MITY3, VELO something...), they all use pretty standard CR2032 button batteries, I expect this would be the same, and fit the same handlebar mount.

Dweenk, you can have the saddle if you send me an e-mail per the instructions above in the post before someone else does the same.

It's the only way I can keep this stuff straight and be fair about it.

Got the bars and computers in the mail today. Avenir takes a pretty standard button battery that needs replacing, Cateye MITY 8 battery is still working.

I pulled the technium from the stack and swapped the drop bars for the flats, I found a pair of old short-pull levers lying around (might look on ebay for some smaller ones). My son now has a lot easier time braking. In a few years I will be able to put the drop bars and road levers back on. Just need to get some grips, might even put the bullhorns on, if he wants!

Pics before & after:

This is a pull from a recent acquisition I've got zero use for. I'm two shakes from taking it to the co-op, but figured I'd offer up here at the cost of shipping if this is your thing. One of the arm pads is missing, but appears to be a cheap replacement part. Don't even want to know how you tape these up, it was hard enough to pull the brake lines and barcons.

I have a Tange fork (steerer tube about 155mm). Don't get excited, I think it is high tensile steel. It has chrome sox, and appears to be fully chromed under the paint. It has threaded fender mounts on the decent quality stamped dropouts.

I'm tempted to put something like that on my three-speed, just as a goof. But this is not a request for yours.

For the intrepid and/or curious, I found a pic of what appear to be the same bars in action:

No need to guess what it looks like, if you're logged in you can see it right here, just think, you too could have a moose on your bars! It's actually insanely light, I was surprised.

I think this thread is due for a revival so I might as well kick it off! I've got a Shimano Crane rear derailleur hopefully for anyone looking to finish up an early Dura-Ace build, I'll even cover postage. It's got a little rust here and there, but should be able to clean up nicely.

Claimed, thanks all!

Two frame/fork combos:

First is a Peugeot, white, rusty/crusty but appears structurally OK. Full 531 and has a couple parts attached, 22.5" seat tube.

Spoken For: Next is a Claud Butler "Majestic," I believe 531 main tubes only. A bit of rust, no headset, 25" seat tube.

Prefer someone local to pickup.
