Hi All. Well I made it there and back, it may have been a short trip but it was eventful . It was really great to meet some of you and I will be back next year ! Amazingly I managed to come home with more than I went with , so here's a few items that you may be interested in:
1. NOS Bluemels white celluloid spare point front wheel extension guard. No. 6. Complete with wrapper.$30.
2. Modolo Speedy brake set. In very good condition. Complete with levers and original brake blocks. Both hoods need replacing. $25.
3. Brown Brothers Cycle Catalogue. 1959. 240 pages. In very, very good condition. Quite a lot of lightweight information included. $70.
4. One pair of Milremo pedals in fair condition. The centres are alloy with steel frames riveted on. The chrome is in generally good condition. Both spindles appear to run true. All that is needed is some minor cleaning. $40.
5. One pair of Lyotard Berthey pedals in fair condition. These are the model with alloy underplates. There is a small amount of rust and slight damage to end caps, but otherwise, with a good clean, very nice. $40.
6. Pivo alloy stem. Appears to be unused but has been kicking around for a while. It has a 4" extension. $30.
7. Chater Lea round crank chain set. Complete with 46 tooth chain wheel. The cranks are in generally good condition and with cleaning could be used as is. The chainwheel appears to have no wear at all. There is a slight file mark on one of the cotter pin holes but nothing serious. $120.
8. "Every Cyclists' Handbook" by F.J. Camm. 1936. 200 pages. Covers all aspects of pre-war cycling. In nice condition. $45.
9. B&T Components alloy brake set. Appear to have had very light use, if any. They are made out of sheet alloy and work on a cantilever system. The brake levers are similar patern to Alps. This is now a very rare brake set and seldom turns up. $120.
10. Campione British made saddle bag support. Made for saddles without bag loops. It is chrome with a small red makers plate riveted on. $15.
Postage is extra on top. I can accept cash dollars or money orders in
pounds sterling only. American express dollars are ok too.
Cheers for now.
