Subject: [CR] Ebay Outing


This week there is quite an abundance of items. Amongst the frames and the bikes the early Eddy Merckx stands out - its long been rumoured that the very early Merckx frames were built by De Rosa - well this one has a six slot BB shell with heart cutout just like De Rosa used in the early and mid 1970s - the lugs are pressed and the fork crown is not engraved. The seatstay caps are engraved with the Merckx logo and there's a Merckx style frame number on the shell. Another star this week is the KOF Gazelle 753 bike complete with Shimano Dura-Ace - it was built for an ex professional team mechanic who worked for various teams including PDM. The detailing and quality stands out a mile. A frame where the detailing care also stands out is the H R Morris - this is not fancy lugged (Morris did not build many fancy lugged frames) but the lugs are beautifully filed and the whole frame shows a great deal of care in its construction. Other stars include a Gazelle 531 (which belonged to the wife of the ex team mechanic), a Holdsworth Whirlwind Special with very fancy lugs and a KOF 1986 Cinelli Super Corsa in very nice condition.

Amongst the parts there are lots of very useful tools (and one or two quite rare ones). There are some more tools to come next week too. Parts include a very beautiful pair of off topic Campy Record Delta callipers, a Bib waterbottle, an off topic C-Record Century finish rear gear, a nice fluted Campy Record seatpin from the 70s, a Sturmey ASC 3-speed fixed gear and a couple of 151mm bcd Campy Pista chainsets from the 1960s. A rather splendid set is the gold anodized Mafac Competitioon brakeset.

There are a few unusual Campy catalogues and a 1970s Condor catalogue which is not at all common.

I have changed a little how I list - I now list on Ebay.co.uk but choose to have the items show on Ebay.com too - I am not sure however the items will show if you simply go to my ebay identity in Ebay.com - I would appreciate feedback on this. And the items are listed to finish earlier - I would also appreciate feedback on this change.

The auctions finish on Sunday at an EARLIER TIME than usual between midday and 3.00pm PDT and all are best found using my ebay identity hilarystone on Ebay.co.uk or go to:
