    After recently clearing out a bunch of bits including wheels, a chain, callipers, stems, I now find myself needing some bits, including a wheel, chain, callipers, stem, seatpost… you couldn’t make it up!! 🙄

    More specifically I’m looking for:

    25.4mm seat-post, silver/chrome

    Saddle, preferably brown/tan

    Stem, silver

    straight bars, silver

    700 front wheel, silver

    chain for a single speed

    calipers, silver

    This is for a single speed to get me to the shops/pub so don’t be telling about your Brooks C17s or your Dura-Ace this and that, unless you want to let them go for <€10

    Don’t need to be in immaculate condition.

    what have you got in your spares boxes?

    Thanks for the offer. I do have a particular look in mind for this project and have a couple of black saddles myself but I’m looking for brown.

    I probably have a lot of what you need. I'll need to go digging.

    Hi there, thanks for the message. Unfortunately the situation has changed as the frame I was going to use for this project suffered a catastrophic failure today while I attempted to remove the seized seatpost. It’s back to the drawing board.

    I have some stuff that I'll never use, including 2 saddles. I have a Zipp seatpost that is marked but perfect working nick, as well as various stems etc. I'll have a look later

    Thanks for checking. Sure let me know what you have, I’m not even sure if this project will go ahead, I need to see if I can salvage the frame at all but can’t bring myself to look at it just yet. I was attempting a brute force method of seatpost extraction and let’s just say a mistargeted swing of a hammer may have permanently altered the direction of the project. I might just end up getting a complete bike.

    Reminds me, I also have a GT alloy road bike frame that I'll never build up🙄
