I have sorted out some more bits and pieces. All items are priced in $. Postage will be extra charged at cost. Enquire for actual cost if you like before deciding. Payment can be made in cash with dollars or by money order in Pounds sterling ($1.40 to 1 pound sterling). American Express Travellers cheques are also fine. Regards Hilary Stone

Scorza 16 in c to c frame and forks with 17in top tube. Uses 22in tubular tyres and sprint rims ­ the tyres are still made by Vittoria ­ quite a lot of kids still race on that size in Holland and Belgium. Comes with one pair of wheels with Campagnolo Record hubs and Nisi rims. There is also a spare rear wheel with a cheap hub and a spare rim as well. There are four new tubulars included and several secondhand puctured ones. All three of the built-up wheels have good tubulars. There is a 125mm double cotterless chainset included. The frame is built from Columbus tubing (there is a Columbus transfer with a dove with red background). The lugs are absolutely beautiful, the paintwork is very good but there are scarpes on the seatsys and some scratches elsewhere. The original transfers are all there and good. The rear end is very short necessitating just a 4-speed freewheel of which there is one on each rear wheel. The bottom bracket has four beautiful slots cut underneath and all the detailing is just fabulous. The story I was told was that it was originally built for the grandson of the framebuilder. It certainly looks as if that could have been true by the care and detail taken. There is an appropriate length 3TTT stem and kids width bars. My son, Keir raced on it over a couple of seasons both with gears and in fixed wheel mode. It looks as if was built in the middle to late 70s. No gears, brakes or saddle are included. Campag Nuovo Record would set it off just beautifully. Email me with questions you might have. A unique bicycle but rather esoteric hence $450

Mafac Driver cantilever brakes. Complete and in good condition (brake shoe fastening nuts have a little surface rust) and blocks fitted are Fibrax. Rare hence $55

Lyotard 45CA quill pedals Solid steel centres, aluminium quill, proper older style two flat spindle $55

Campagnolo single gear lever with large round chrome disc as used with the all steel long cage Campagnolo gear. NOS and perfect. $15

Campagnolo seatpost with narrow fittings for special Brooks, etc saddles NOS 27.2mm Perfect $65

Cyclo front derailleur 1949 pattern (cage for 3/32in chain) Clip has a little surface rust but cage is excellent. Virtually new old stock save for very minor mark on cage which looks literally as if it has been used once or twice. A rare early front derailleur. This pattern is quite different from the later 1950s Cyclo front derailleurs $65

Cyclo Benelux single right hand lever woth red and blue friction adjusting knob ­ can be supplied either with single band or braze on boss NOS $30

Vito (with bottle and cage symbols) red cotton musette NOS unused lovely 50s/60s period piece $35

Coloral aluminium bottle complete with unpierced aluminium faced cork with coloral logo. Unused but with a few small marks $40

Simplex retrofriction levers (a pair). I have found a second set of these wonderful levers as favoured by the pro riders of the late 70s and 80s. $35

Tecalamit lubricator ­ a minature grease gun as carried by every sensible clubman in the 30s, 40s and 50s. This one with a plastic body is probably 1950s. Simply pushes onto grease nipple for luibricating headset, bottom bracket etc. Great little period piece $25

Reynolds hiduminium light bracketto fit brazed on lamp boss. Excellent condition looks unused $25
