Bike parts for trade?

cyco

any chance i could swap the paddywagon for a 54cm paddywagon?! Mine is a 54 seat tube centre to top and 56 top tube c-c in blue. what colour's yours? and toptube length?

also how deep are the deep wheels? and have a they a braking surface? looking for something all black with deep rim

Mr. Skeffington

Hi there Cyco, Id rather not swap the frame, mine is the 2008 model and its grey white and black, there is a picture of it over on Adverts if you want to take a look.

The wheels are from this bike:
http://www.giant-bicycles.com/en-GB/bikes/lifestyle/2469/32689/

As mentioned they are unridden, this bike was stripped from new. The wheels are really very deep, they have a good braking surface. The exact depth is 42mm and you will get a good idea of the look from the picture.

Hi guys,

This may be a little off topic, not sure, so I'm sorry if it is. I was looking to get into road cycling as a sport and so was given a €300 voucher for a bike shop. The thing is the bike I liked is a little too expensive for me at the moment. I'd like to get going on the road sooner rather than later and I found the exact bike I want for a lot cheaper elsewhere.

Would anyone give me €250, or even a lower offer would be ok for the voucher? It's for Joe Daly in Dundrum.

Or what would possibly be better, swap a road cycle for the voucher and if you wanted more for it I could make up the difference in cash if it's not too much.

If this is too absurd a request, or to off topic, I'm sorry, but I'd like any help anyone can give me.

Cheers guys.

Thanks very much!

Yeah 1" is the size alright. Is it 110mm or 120mm? Quill stems look like this if you're in anyway unsure.

Let us know what you want in return, I have 70mm and 80mm quill stems if they interest you, plus odds and sods.

That image is much nicer looking than mine. I'll post you a piccy tonight with measurements. Its 120 I think. If you want it after that I'll post it Monday unless you live around North side in which case I'll drop it to ya.

I don't want anything for it .. well go on ... swim the liffey naked from O'Conell bridge to Customs House -- I'll leave it on the steps

Ah you're far too kind - I live on the North Side and would certainly pick it up if available, wouldn't have you dropping it out to me!!! I'll be floating around tomorrow evening if you're about? Will swing by to your neck of the woods.

I can't swim , even when I wear my lucky red togs.

Hey guys,

I order a Specialized Tricross Single Speed http://www.pearsoncycles.co.uk/product/4422/SPECIALIZED_TRICROSS_SINGLE_2008_RRP_450_SAVE_175_NOW_27499 from peasons in a size 56cm. However I find this a little bit to big, but postage back is such a killer that I was wondering if anyone here was thinking of ordering one? I took it out of the box, set it up, sat on it and realised it was to big for me. Hasn't even been out of the house.

All up it cost me around €320, so offers around that much please (really you should give me more, setting it up and everything for you!;))

The frame still has its protective wrapping on, the rear hub is indeed flip-flop so it could be set up as a fixie if thats what you want.

In the South Dublin (D6) area, can provide pic's on request.

Still on the lookout. You could have both the 70mm and the 80mm stems, I'm not going to use them! You around this weekend?

Edit: just let me make sure that I can find them!

Bit of a long shot here; would anyone have some Look Keo / SPD SL pedals they'd like to get rid of?! Particularly lower-end like 105 (cheaper!) types?

Thanks
