Ah can't collect but would love for son.

Agree that Brooks saddles can be a right pain. Aside from misshapen leather I had a frame snap on a fairly new B17. No idea why. Had to drill out the rivets and used marine screws to refit. The replacement frame I bought was badly machined and wouldn't fit at the nose so had to be filed down...

Also interested in the frame if you want rid....

I like it. But I'm not hung up on authenticity.

I couldn't sell that.

No idea what the seller is on about, looks like a conventional headset to me. Is the star nut secure inside the forks?

If no-one else wants it @ibbz I'd take that spanner!

Would it be worth asking that Amanda if she wants it as wall art?

If you haven't ever used v-brakes give them a try. They should be a direct fit onto the brake stanchions on tbe fork and frame. I remember the first ones I tried in about 1996 and I was blown away by the power and feel.

I'll gladly take the stem please.

If it was once nicked it might have been sprayed black?

Acid Jazz forks are pretty rare. The bike is virtual insanity.

Doesn't help you but I have built up an older 26 smoke as a fun bike

Great wheels @Racin'snake and amazingly well packaged, thanks.

Cracking looking bike that

Spot on, love it.

25 years back we were riding bikes like this round Coed y Brenin! Splendid.

"weekend hobbyists......those subsidised by a day job during the week." Isn't this how a lot of companies that we now consider 'proper' started out? And when they got bigger got more established and costs went up?

I have no idea, that's why I asked.
