Anyone got a 1 1/8th threadless headset knocking about that is taking up valuable space that they need rid off?

Oh and preferably not black. In fact the brighter the better.

Of course I'm willing to pay.

A near local LBS has hope headsets for £55 - I think that includes postage.

Free postage on the above,for a new hope HS that is a very good deal

Without getting into the Hope/King debate about which is best.Though they're probably just the same[unless king use magic fairy dust or something :shock:
You'll pay about that for a 2nd hand king

Does anyone have any early stuff kicking about?? I'm looking for Araya rims, dura ace 130mm hubs, m730 cranks, cantis, mechs and shifters and Magura Shorty levers. Maybe some Deerhead mechs and shifters??

Nothing yet.
Alfa is more or less finished now and I need a new project to keep me sane. I've decided not to go mad on the bikes but keep it a little more focused. Nothing newer than 1986-7 is going to get in the garage now (Hot Rod Yo aside). I really like the purity of the earlier stuff. I want real nice stuff too- I'm thinking Potts, Ritchey, Otis Guy etc,, nice fillet brazed stuff.

I have a few warm irons in the fire but nothing set in stone yet. I'm just gathering nice parts at the moment.

 

[clockworkgazz]

ritchey would be my choice.
