Re: The Doctor's Giving up sale.
Hi All
thanks for the responses so far
Here are some pics and prices :
I am happy to post so I'll stick posted prices on, if you want to collect just say and I'll do you a collected price and make you a cup of the wrong sort of drink and then go and make the one you actually wanted.
So, first of all, here's the Hardrock - it's a bit scruffy but it's all fine. I got it from another retrobiker who warned me about a ding in the nds chainstay, it's there but doesn't seem to be a problem or troublesome in any way, or even particularly visible.. The paintand decals are scruffy, BUT - it's an 18 - for once not a gate size, and in just Specialized's best paint job ever. ( Well I think so )
Here it is ( Flexstem not included, available seperately )
£20 posted.
Flexstem - yellow, boings boingily ( but discreetly )
1inch headset, 110 reach.
£10 Posted.
Exage Country DS Chainset, no left arm. VERY biopacey, tapers fine, can't guarantee the rings but they look ok.
£8 posted.
Flouro Green rear carrier. A bit of patina but nice nevertheless
£10 posted ( I also have a good quality plain alloy one, no pics right now, but can get some tomorrow - 15 posted. )
This lot:
So: U brakes - £5 each posted - I have the booster for one of them ( rusty, but it works and the screws etc.
300lx Brakes, 1 set Karma, 1 set £5 Posted ( 1 set being a bike's worth - I have another pair here to make up two bikes worth )

400LX Front Mech, good condition, £7 posted

This lot:
Charlie Kelly's book: almost mint, tiny TINY dent in rear cover along bottom, heavy, so £13 posted. SOLD
Richard's Mountain Bike Book by Charlie Kelly and Nick Crane, £7 posted ( loads of lovely old stuff - great for atmospheric reading at 3 in the morning )
VHS's: pay post and they are yours. ( About 3 quid or something )

maintenance stand from ebay: frankly I'd rather this went as collection, or I deliver it on the M6/M5/M50/ corridor or close or I can be flexible, because it'll cost a fortune to post and I'd feel better not doing it: 20 of your earth pounds.

Topeak Joe Blow - Sturdy and almost new. Nice kit, 15 posted
As far as tools go I don't actually have much in the way of cycle specific ones: not as many as I thought I had, anyway.
I have a couple of cassette removers, a Shimano BB remover, an SPD tool, a 1inch Headset spanner and a cone spanner and that's about it: I have been using my other tools for everything else. Order anything over 30 and the lot is yours.
OOoh and these: Teva M Pivot Shoes, EU Size 40, UK 7.5. Hardly ever worn, have a look at the soles, really nice condition: £25 Posted

And finally, a pile of MBIs - from 97 - 2000 and MBUKs 97 - 2005.
Mostly good condition, it's about a 4 foot pile so £50 ( lists available, but I don't really wanna split these, and am happy to drop them off as per the maintenance stand )
I am open to offers, in case I am way off base, and always happy to welcome retrobikers in for a natter.
Thanks for reading
