A few bits from the shed of dread that could do with new owners...
1/ a Shimano Deore front mech. Bottom swing, top & bottom pull, 31.8mm clamp. Removed from my old Schwinn 4 banger, so it's a 2000 model. It's used, but far from worn out. Call it £10.
2/ a Fox RP23 Propedal shock. 200mm x 57mm. High volume. Barely used shock (if it's even been used at all), a couple of storage marks but otherwise it's as new. I bought the wrong size, so it's been in my cupboard for the last year gathering dust. SOLD on eBay for the princely sum of £105.
3/ Some very small pedals from a child's bicycle. £8
4/ a carbon fibre seatpost from Syncros. In good nick. 27.2mm £45
5/ shock mounting bolts and bushings for a 2000 Schwinn 4 banger. £5.
6/ A shimano alfine hydraulic disc brake set. Unused, they were removed from a new bike and exchanged for something with a sexier label on them. No pads or discs. Post mount. Front is immaculate and ready to go, rear needs the hose reconnecting to the caliper and bleeding (it was on a frame with internal hose routing). The only marks are tool marks where the fitter took the hose off, so it looks like there's a bit of corrosion or something around the hose union. Hence £45
7/ A pair of Geax Tattoo tyres from the White Collection. They've done about 20 miles. Polarising opinion generators, but nonetheless eye catching and good on tarmac. Not much good on an electric bike at 30mph on gravel though... Buy these two, and get an unused third one thrown in for free. £26
