    The one on my Allez is knackered. Anyone got something lying around?

    Thanks in advance.

    Jeremy (I'm in Dublin and happy to collect)

    Left or right? I have a Shimano 2300 set that have just come off my bike, they're a few years old but work fine. The left hand is for a triple, but works with doubles too I've found.

    BTW also in Dublin!

    Hi. Thanks for getting in touch butterworth. Unfortunately this didn't work out as butterworth needs to hold on to the shifter. So I'm still looking.

    Thanks in advance!

    might have an old set, will check tonight.

    I've a few years old set off a Trek 1000, 8 speed sora if that's any good to you? Think 3300 was the model number for them. Few scrapes on them, but fully functional.

    EDIT: This is the manual for them, and I'm based between D15 (living) and D2 (work).

    Thanks Finnrocco and cython. Either would be good, I will eagerly await your updates!

    Couple of photos here, please let me know if you want any specific others. As mentioned, there are a few scrapes on the bodies (hoods will sit flush once you tuck them in properly, as you might guess), but mechanically the internals are perfect, I just upgraded to 10 speed to get rid of the thumb shifters :D

    I know you're only looking for the right, but I've no use for them really and some people like them to match, so I'd say take a look at the pics and make me an offer if interested?

    PM'd. They look suitable!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19 JPWOctane


    Just read the forum rules. To comply with the requirement to deal in thread I'm offering 15 based on the last one I was offered. Happy to negotiate and keen to collect today if remotely possible!

    Any chance you can stretch to 20 to round it? Unfortunately I'm not likely to be around Dublin today until pretty late in the evening, and they're at home there (had I thought about it I should have brought them with me, as I'll be driving the M50 from the M11 to Blanch and could have met you en route - mea culpa :(), so today's not really a runner unless you were able to collect late. Otherwise any evening would be fine, or I could meet you in town during the week.

    20 is cool with me. Daytime in D2 wouldn't work for me though so how about one evening during the week? If you're about tomorrow that would be handy. Let me know where and I'll be OK to meet you some time after 7.

    Yeah, any evening this week barring Wednesday after about 7 I should be home and available. Will PM you now with number, etc.

    Collected today. Thanks Cython. Looking forward to getting the bike back on the road.
