:shock: you mean there arn`t 54 days in April???!!! damn these cheap calendars........ :lol: any info gratefully recieved..... :wink:

that scuff would buff up a bit........i`ll have it with thanks......how do i pay you?

hi Ewan i`m new here too....... please dont think i`m being rude but £100 delivered is going to get you a bike that will put you off for life!! :shock: if you could find one at all i would put an ad up in your local shops asking if anyone has a bike sitting in a shed you`ll be amazed...

just started stripping it bearings are very good, frame number is 5404594 which means it was made on the 54th of april 1959.........4......... :shock: although that might be inaccurate ........ i`m just going to clean up the frame for now, a bit of touch up paint here and there...

That Otta is beautiful.....wanna swap??... :lol: looking at the Puch i`m thinking touring dropbars with brown tape and a brown leather seat...

anything considered, cheap as chips :shock: maybe a period seat for a 70`s racer not a Brookes as it would be worth more than the bike cheers

The other is a Raleigh Celeste ladies bike, sturmey hub looks well used and in need of a proper clean.

this morning my 5 year old rode his bike without stabilisers....top lad :D while i was teaching him a bloke came and had a chat.......mentioned he had two bikes he is about to take to the local tip and wo :evil: ld i like them, this was one, apart from the seat it looks llike its all...

yeah, though as much, motocross guys have a neoprene cup that covers bearings but i think a heath robinson bearing seal will be made up before too long.... :lol:

rebuilt wheels and they are silky smooth, trouble is the old bearing bolt/race had a built in washer that covered the bearings...the new ones don`t..... :shock: this allows me to clean and grease as often as i like (is the half baked arguement i`m convincing myself with :oops: )but is there...

non standard stickers!!!! flog him!!! heres mine, cost about £80 all together i need gears cos i`m a fat git.... needs new wheels to be honest but its ok around town....

I say we take off and nuke the frame from orbit. It's the only way to be sure or...fill the TT with builders expanding foam it wont get the blighter out but it will stop rattling.... :shock:
