BUMP Buy a bike

Right, something's gotta go so I'm adding this lovely Reynolds 501 tubed, fillet brazed Dawes Synthesis. 700c wheels so it's either a Gravel bike or an Hybrid depending on how old you are. Would make a great tourer, commuter, or do-it all bike and has lugs for mudguards, racks (front and rear)...

Photos! Since taking these I swapped the stem for a slightly shorter, silver Specialized one.

Next up is the bike I have ridden the most over the past few years since I built it. It's set up as a 1x8 and is also super fun to ride, very light, and pretty fast. I have two 98 Clockworks - for me it's the best year because V-brakes and 1 1/8" steerer - but it's still a proper Clockwork and...

The one in / one out rule at Stupido towers means I have to sell at least one bike. I've also got a bike box taking up space so happy to post (£33.99 via Paisley Freight) or you can collect from me in South Devon. First up is a British Eagle Summit in single speed flavour. This is a quality...

Still enjoying the Dawes despite hardly having time to ride, and juddery front forks under braking. The answer to the original question, I think, is this. Been trying not to buy one for ages. https://www.planetx.co.uk/i/q/YBPXKBRIV1/planet-x-kaffenback-sram-rival-1-bike

Same as mine, which had "92" stamped on the tange forks. Good riding frame.

Can't see it, but I like mine.

Slow progress...bad photo...but I think it will be a nice bike.

Sorted!

That’s lovely. Pics would be good, main thing is whether you can be bothered to post… oh and how much you want for it. :)

Or a Dawes, or perhaps a British Eagle. Even a Townsend. Something in lugged steel, ideally Reynolds, 501 is fine. K2 would be nice. Thinking something like a Mirage, Yukon, or a Peak. Late 80s / Early 90s... Ideally in rideable condition, at least sound and worthy of further TLC, cosmetics...

Very tempting... can't believe nobody's bought it yet! Have a free BUMP on me, I'm trying to resist temptation as space is very limited...

That's nice. I dare say you'd find a buyer if postage was an option...

That's lovely.

Thanks again, now fitted with a 115mm BB.
