ISO one to two of these for converting a pair of kids bikes for "Learn to Ride" balance-bike style training (the coaster brake needs to go on these things):

A 28 hole Shimano singlespeed hub with a roller brake spline on it. The one in the picture is a Shimano RH-IM10 and seems to be nearly impossible to find, but it is available in 28h:



or

An aluminum 28h rear hub threaded on both sides. These are sometimes used for tandems and some mopeds, but they're also suitable for band brakes.

I know these are available as steel-bodied hubs, but I want to avoid that if at all possible. Yes, the one shown is steel, but that's all I could bring up on Google on short notice.




I also need the band brakes (I'm running out of bike share spares), and two 19T freewheels would help too.

As I'm doing my glacial plowing through several non-keepers that I've accumulated, I find that I could use a few generic saddles. I'm not looking for Brooks-ish leather, but if someone has 2, 3 or 4 in the spirit of Avocet, or Avocet knock-offs, I certainly could use them. I have an eclectic assemblage of parts to trade, or barring that, I have a small allowance for such things.

Muchos Gracias.

<edit> To be clear, I'm not looking for an Avocet specifically. I am looking for saddles of that era with a leather-like covering. For that matter, resembling another maker's saddle isn't disqualifying. Generic and undamaged is my goal as these are going on bikes I have acquired, but wish to pass along to new homes as ready-to-ride. My objective is to accomplish this with minimal loss to alleviate overcrowding.

EDIT - didn't work out, someone else help please this fellow...

Or: just buy the tool. E.g. on Wiggle for £10

USAZ,
This one is rider quality and needs to be in the hands of someone else. PM Me Smiles, MH

A couple of small nicks in the leather on the underside, but otherwise looks to be OK.

USAZorro

Looks nice, and I am thinking about it. If there were two (or 3 or 4) saddles, it would be an easier decision.

<edit> - That saddle is quite a bit nicer than what I was hoping for. I wasn't clear on what I was what I am looking for, as Avocet saddles are tough to find and cost more than what I am looking for. I am hoping to find saddles with leather-like coverings with a look and profile similar to that of Avocets. I have two bikes that I am hoping to find new homes for that I'll be lucky to break even on. One's a 1980-ish Peugeot Cadre Allegro (I saw it in marketplace thinking "parts bike", but when I went to see it, I realized that aside from needing a good cleaning and having a trashed saddle and being desperate for new tires, it was in great shape and too good to pass up), the other is a mid 80's Motobecane Grand Touring. That saddle isn't as far gone, but has a couple divots that will just make it harder to pass along.

This was on Raleigh Competition I picked up for the saddle:



I didn’t have a T.A. Puller so I planned to go to the co-op, pull the cranks, and put the DS in my parts bin. Well, the co-op didn’t have a TA puller, so I bought one and now I’m committed to this crankset with the matching BB.

Looking for NDS 170mm crank in any condition CHEAP. It doesn’t have to look this nice.

One of my most prized tools, TA and Stronglight crank puller. Other than Suntour freewheel adjusting wrench I think someone makes them on the other side of the Pond, I got mine from a company manufacturing them in Poland and got to say I have to check if they make regular ones, very good quality.
Anyhow, I don't have NDS TA crank arm, the only crankarms I have that are not in use or to be used are some random heavy steel hybrid / city bike ones. What I wanted to say though is that you have a very nice find here! Looking at the chainrings, they seem to have had very little use. And I like the three-armed spider.
Huret Success (or Challenger?) FD looks a bit tired though and that chrome will come off when you start cleaning it (not that there's any other choice), but these are pretty good. I absolutely love the fact that you can take them nearly completely apart and clean them. At least I could do that with mine, evertyhing was using either screws or C-clips (or E-clips, whatever you call them). A bit of a pain in the backside to put everything back together.
I've seen these paired with Huret Titane RD, which is pretty decent and again, can be taken apart. I really wish more derailleurs were designed this way...

Hi folks, I acquired a '73 Raleigh RRA frame and am looking for a 3ttt Record stem and the GB Ventoux handlebars to match. These bars are easy to spot as they have the map of England engraved on them. The catch here is that the stem has to be a 25.4 size rather than the standard 3ttt size of 26.0, in order to mate the bars. The ones you usually see with this size are often engraved "Evian"

Let me know if you have anything like that

Thanks,

Andy

I don't see any identifying marks on this NDS arm but it is 170....

How about four or five? All Avocet.

1. Touring, poor shape, headed for trash
2. Touring I, scuff and accomanying small hole but still okay shape
3. Touring I, scuff but still okay shape
4. Racing, nice shape
5. Racing I, nice shape
6. *edit* just found a third Touring I, slightly better shape than the other two.

I need misc Japanese, French, Iatalian bits. If you want any or all of these saddles suggest a trade, something you think you wont use.

32h Tri-color rear hub and 12-24t 8-speed cassette?

Insidious C. 

Thanks. Was responding to USAZoro's ISO. Let's give him a chance to reply.

USAZorro

I'm interested in the Touring I's. I have no Italian or French stuff, unless one counts a couple MAFAC calipers and a set of levers, some Huret and Simplex derailleurs (unfortunately not much, run-of-the-mill, and not in the greatest shape), or a more modern Modolo stem. PM me with the sort of things you'd be interested in.

ISO a Bruce Gordon Rock n Road frame between 54 and 56cm, if anyone has one they don't feel like they get the chance to live enough and would like to pass it on, I'm willing to pay the going rate or a bit higher. Regrettably I was too young during his tenure to order one. Thanks.

I bought an 25.4mm UNO 602 on Amazon last week for an old Raleigh. $18. I chose this one because of the 24mm offset, which I needed for this too-small bike. I got a tip recently that acetone can remove the ink label. Naphtha didn't work. One other tip, when I got the package it showed the seatpost comes in different lengths, although they may be hard to find. Mine was 350mm, which is probably ~twice as long as I needed.

USAZ,
It looks like there is gonna be extra room in the box. Any other bits of "Crap" you want in this box before it goes to the post office. PM with your shopping list (and NO! there isn't any free Campy stuff around here). Smiles, MH

Closest fit I found for a box unless I rob a new saddle of it's packaging. There is room for some small bits, or "borked" parts from the BOC. You know the stuff pantographed Cinelli kickstands, and other useless items.

USAZorro

What about Campa?

If you have a reeeeally long, ( >750) centerpull brake caliper I could use that, or if you have a 118 BCD three hole Nervar or TA chainring (or two) that's just laying about I would have use for that. Otherwise, if you want to offload "borks", I'm fine with taking them off your hands. I occasionally get "creative" both with my builds and household small projects.

Cheers,

Z

25.4mm steel posts are still common on department store bikes. If you have a bike co-op locally, they probably have a box of them. If you can't source one locally, I'm sure I can find a used one for you for lss than what a new one would cost.

Schweinhund

Wot kind of misc parts are you looking for?
Got quite a bit to trade

SoCaled 

ISO

Working on the Grizzly, running new cables, discovered the RD is missing the "Cable Fixing Bolt Unit" Part #546 9814 - looking for a source to buy one or if someone has one in a parts bin? Bolt has 2 flat sides on the shoulder that lock it into the derailleur. Pulled this one off another derailleur, if there is a source, I would likely replace this on too.

Schweinhund

SoCaled That thing, if it looks like the derailleur it was attached to, looks like crap.
I have this thing.
Needs a jockey wheel. otherwise it's complete.
The back plate is on backwards, I was saving the pieces.

ascherer 

French stem, ~60 anyone? Mrs. ascherer's Grand Jubilee mixte has a bit too much reach for her. Can swap the 80 Pivo or I have various stemmage in non-Gallic dimensions.
