For CR Folks only:
I am taking orders for tubesets for the next couple of days. I will be buying only enough sets to cover orders placed by you folks, so buy now!
Double butted Reynolds 531 tubesets from the early 70's, with steerer and headtube, (no decals, but I can provide 531 decals at a discount with the tubesets)- 1-3 sets @ $70 ea; 4-8 sets at $56 ea; 9-15 sets @ $51 ea
Steerer tubes are sized roughly SMALL, MEDIUM, and LARGE, please specify. Headtubes come bulk, so I will supply them cut to the approximate correct size based on the steerers that you get.
The seatstays are a very slender, pleasing single taper, the seat tubes take 27.2 seat posts, the blades are most likely going to be pre-bent with a nice, moderate racing bend from the Reynolds factory. I can not guarantee any unbent fork blades, but will fill requests first come, first served. The blades measure approximately 29mm x 16.4mm (outside diameter), so be sure to measure your crowns, or I can supply them- see below. These tubesets do not come with decals, but again, I can supply them.
I can supply Prugnat long-point lugsets, (seat, and 2 head lugs) English threaded bottom bracket shell and fully sloping fork crown for $15 with any tube order. I normally supply 2 braze-on BB cable guides and a braze-on chainstay cable stop, but I am unsure of what's still available there, so again, these will be provided with the lugsets on a first come, first served basis. I may be able to provide a Campy clamp-on cable guide in lieu of the braze-on bit- please ask. http://www.velostuf.com/
Genuine Reynolds 531 DB decal sets, (seat tube and fork blades, (2)) are available with any tubeset ordered for an additional $19, (I get $35 for them on my website). http://www.velostuf.com/
Shipping will be basically at cost, but because small orders will probably go USPS and large orders via FedEx Ground, I will quote these costs when orders are placed. Keep in mind that unless they're sent USPS Priority, shipping times will be somewhat slower during the holiday season.
