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

Gnutti splined crankset complete with bottom bracket axle. Excellent condition. This pair of cranks has been rechromed but nicely ­ the Gnutti logos have been well preserved and there¹s very little sign of pitting. In a couple places there are some slight gouge marks under the new cgrome which have wisely not been polished out. Both crank bolts are there but could do with rechroming. Axle is new and unused. Takes most types of continental style 3 pin fastening rings including Simplex double rings. Rare and beautiful $150

Williams C34 chainset with 50T 3/32in ring. The cranks and ring are all marked ZF indicating 1965. This model of chainset was made for and fitted to most British road bikes in the middle price range for many years in the 1930s, 40s, 50 and 60s. Excellent chrome with no marks of any consequence Whole set looks very lightlu used. Comes complete with TDC bottom bracket in very good condition ­ no cotters though. $35

Holdsworthy Aids Catalogue 1975 A couple of grubby marks on the cover but otherwise perfectly clean inside. Lists all the Campy equipment and much else most with delightful line drawings. Holdsworthy were the British Campy importers but also brought in much else besides. 80pp $25

Lucifer Baby 800 dynamo with front fork clamp and integral front light. Truly excellent condition looks almost unused but rubber pulley cover shows some light use. The best dynamo there was until the 70s with very little drag and will run happily on a tubular tyre. A fantastic little dynamo ­ I used them for many years in the 1980s because they outperformed the bottom bracket dynamos several times over. $45

GB Hiduminium brake callipers (pair) from c1948 to 1954. Very good condition. The adjusters have been replaced but are a good match for the original and so has one of the cable clamp bolts. Red brake blocks and shoes have been fitted. Getting quite rare now. $45
