CRANALLOY WING NUTSET NOS These are a quite short aluminium wing nut from the 1950s. Perfect condition $40
AIRLITE LARGE FLANGE GEAR FIXED HUBSET 32/40 hole The rear hub has threading for freewheel on one side and for a fixed sprocket on the other. It is in excellent condition - the threads are all good, the bearings feel smooth and the chrome on the centre barrel is virtually perfect. The front hub has smooth feeling bearings but the centre barrel has lost most of its original chrome - but it is not deeply pitted and should rechrome very easily. $120
UNIT BOTTOM BRACKET made by TDC. NOS. This is identical to the Bayliss Wiley unit bottom bracket that is fitted to the plain unthreaded bottom bracket shells as used on Thanet Silverlights and some Paris Galibiers. Rare and can also be used in a bottom bracket where the threads are stripped. Perfect and complete with axle for a cottered double chainset. $45

REYNOLDS 1/2 x 3/32in NOS derailleur chain in original box, perfect condition especially good for older derailleurs where there¹s a largish gap between the top derailleur pulley and sprockets as this chain is stiffer than modern chains $25
TOURING BIKES by Tony Oliver 176pp hardback 1990 This book written by one of Britain¹s best framebuilders of the last 25 years covers far more than the title describes. It is a real primer to frame design - not the actual mechanics of building frames but how to select the correct tubing, achieve the correct size etc, etc for most uses - not only touring bikes. There is an extensive chapter on tandems, triplets and trikes. This copy is in excellent condition though a highlighter pen has been used in a couple of places. I thoroughly recommend this book - it is truly excellent. $25
3TTT RECORD HANDLEBAR STEM 105mm NOS. This is the early style 3T stem triangular in section with a traiangular transfer on the front section with olympic rings and a red, white and green band at the top of the quill. There are one or two very small shopworn marks and the band on the quill is not perfect. Really quite rare and ideal for 70s road bike. $40
STRONGLIGHT 22.2mm crank extractor complete with boxspanner/dustcap removal tool. No tommy bar. This fits all the earlier style Stronglight chainsets - I think essentially pre 1983. $40
TRIVELOX SLIDING SPROCKET GEAR c1947 NOS This is a rare example of the Trivelox rear derailleur and hub made in Britain in which the sprockets slide sideways rather than the chain being bent sideways. It is unused. It is complete with top tube control, gear wire pulley, chain tensioner, rear 40 hole hub and 14 to 21T sprockets. The Trivelox gear was invented in 1933 and this is an example of the later type from about 1947. Some plating has peeled away from the hub centre and this has been painted over. $85

3/8in) and features Rupalley Aluminium Cycles from c1896 and on the reverse

early cycle posters. You can see a photo of this poster at
