Ah yes, what was it? 11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 11, 12. I dont think Nigel used the 12 much.

I've got the following which i wouldnt mind getting rid of:
50cm road frame, columbus tubing, very light! headtube is supposedly not so
round, forks are a bit bent so it'd need new ones.
it has horizontal dropouts (also has a very stuck seatpost which may need
penetrating oil or ammonia to get moving again)
53-55cm peugeot road frame (steel) has horizontal without hanger dropouts,
was running 10speed and 27" rims, frame is straight etc
105 levers, non sti
campagnolo calipers (probably early 1980's)
campagnolo crankset with campy bb (also 1980's?) has 42/53 chainrings
wolber TX profile rims with shimano 600 hubs which has a 7speed 13-21
cassette
FIR SC170 rims with exage front and 105 rear hub, currently has a near new
ultegra 9sp 12-25 cassette
105 front deraillieur
shimano 600 front and rear deraillieurs
3 quill stems of various lengths

how many holes in those rims? if it's 36 in the rear of one of 'em then we'll start talking...

and how long is the crankset arm?

The Peugeot frame, 105 levers and Campag calipers could well be offered a home. I'm trying to build a cheapie road bike for a friend. Contact me offlist at sacredchao at bigpond dot com

only 36's are the FIR's.
the wolbers and the velocity aerohead i discovered in the garage last night
are all 32's
cranks are 170's
ideally i'd like to just trade the lot for a working track/fixie/ss road/ss
mtb (my kingdom for a horse?)

I've got a suitable frame to convert. Early Avanti Cro-Mo. 54/55cm Square.
You have wheels & cranks.......

Don't have anything of that calibre to swap with you, but if you're interested in offloading the 36ers I'd be interested to know what you'd want in terms of $$ or beer... May be too rich for me, but we'll pursue for now

Cranks too perhaps... but not as critical.

If you want to pursue contact me at labyrinth at tpg dot com dot au
