@spytfyre, I heard Lezyne were doing good ones with battery pack for about £50 from guy that did the 240 miles with Mark Beauumont. Where? On-line I am guessing. I had lent him my lezyne rechARGEABLE 1500xxl SUPER DRIVE also 50 quid Evans on line. Only lasted 2 hours on full blast also full blast not 1500 lumnens but certainly lit up the beeftub when I was out that way with @acsimpson. Does have settings that do not burn retinas. Evans in p[ickle just now so maybe bargains there?

I have taken a punt on a Lezyne 250 lumens things at £26 may chuck them if they don't light up the Stop sign at other end of Harrison Gardens like the cateye does and go for the higher up ones

A friend in Porty is selling his...
Tiffosi CK1, like this one:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Tifosi-CK1-Tempo-Veloce-Cyclocross-Bike-/192717952008
Mine is a 54cm /medium frame. It currently has road tyres on it and I use it as a road bike, but I also have the cyclo-cross tyres which it came with. I've had it for maybe four years and I've done the Etape Calendonia a couple of times and been out with Portovelo many times. I'm only really selling as I've realised that I don't really fit a medium bike (I'm 186cm) so I'm looking to change to a large or extra large.
It gets good reviews online. If you're interested then you're welcome to come and take it for a spin. (It has clip-in pedals)
Offers welcome. (Link above provided to give you a ball park for value!) I'll switch to eBay in a few days if I don't get any interest.

Anyone interested in a matching pair of SunnyWheel ceiling-mounted bike lifts?
Bought ages ago from Edinburgh Bike Co-op, but in very good nick, one set of instructions and two sets of big bolts for your ceiling joists are included. No cleats though, as I used to tether them to coat hooks on the wall.
Looks like https://www.amazon.co.uk/Kf-SunnyWheel-Bike-Lift/dp/B00AZYP7QS but the ones I'm tearfully parting with have the full bar between the pulleys. Price tag has £22.95 but I would have bought them in a sale.
From a loving, smoke-free home, etc., yours for the very-economical-in-these-hard-times price of a fiver each. Pick up from Polwarth.

I'd love one but I'm unlikely to be able to collect before Christmas so I'll hover hopefully at the back of the queue.

Does anyone want to buy that Claude Butler Panache - SFS £100 Bargain for a 531 frame and original 30 year old wheels.

But I already have a 531 frame in the loft which I've barely played with for thirteen years.
I heard IWRATS is looking for a bike just now.

Trixie - no worries, one's put aside for you. Collection after Christmas isn't a problem, you were in first!

Just having a clearout of some books & magazines and was wondering whether anyone would like any of the following, before they go to charity/recycling:
- Richard's Bicycle Book by Richard Ballantine - 1979 edition
- Richard's 21st Century Bicycle Book, also by Richard Ballantine
- Cycling Book of Maintenance - this is a slim & old guide (possibly just after WW2) so probably more for perusing value than as an actual maintenance guide. Features plenty of vintage ads for British bicycle and parts manufacturers.
- c.36 New Cyclist magazines spanning 1988-1993. (actually quite a good magazine).Let me know if you are interested!

“Cycling Book of Maintenance - this is a slim & old guide ”
Sounds like my sort of thing.
(Probably got the others.)
Posted 5 years ago # -
Actually, if you don’t get takers for others I can pass on to new bike project.
Posted 5 years ago # -
ok @chdot the "slim guide" is yours. I will wait and see if anyone else is interested in the other items...
Posted 5 years ago # -
ordered by mistake - these are for Specialized shoes '13 onwards, turn out mine are '12
free or a PY/notPY coffee
Posted 5 years ago # -
still no takers for my FREE Thatchers cider? (Bad name, good cider)
Remember it is good for you as it is made from Apples.
Except the Kopraberg which is raspberry or something
12 units in total, maybe be taken in smaller units. FREE

Alpkit 20l Gourdon backpack free to a good home. Fluorescent yellow, and a bit dirty (chain grease mostly). Fantastic bags but I like my much used kelp colour one better and never quite learned to love the bright yellow. Has been to Newfoundland and various other wet places. Unlike the one I use every day this one is still waterproof too.
Posted 5 years ago # -
@unhurt, if this is still available I'll take it off your hands.
Have sent PM.

Reorganising my plastic tubs full of rubbish, I rediscovered a large number of unused V-brake noodles. Anyone desperate for such things, before I Bike Station them?
Posted 5 years ago # -
Actually noodles is one of things I like a supply for fixing kids bikes and other cheap bikes generally, so I’d be interested thanks!
Posted 5 years ago # -
OK. I'll enumerate them and prepare a bagful.
Any other things you need? The useless plastic brackets sold with mini-pumps? The useless brackets for Kryptonite locks? V-brake blocks (black, unused)?Posted 5 years ago # -
Thanks
No to brackets
Bbs always useful (unless they don’t work...?)

I just prefer the pink squishier kind.
