Good morning, list-mates. I have a few items to bring to market today:

Fiamme stem, NOS '60s/ early '70s beautiful high level of polish, 25.4 handlebar diameter, 105 mm extension, 145 mm (overall) quill, $33. Logo on one side only, has the acute angle on the back of the intersection of the extension and quill that we associate with older stems (i.e. it's pointy back there); this is a beautiful stem but too long for my purposes. Hilary had one of these about three weeks ago, if you happened to see the photo there.

Cinelli stem, old logo, '70s--the conventional one with horizontal bolt tangent the handlebar at six o'clock--25.4 bar diameter, 95mm extension, 135 mm quill. Condition is good used / user with most noticeable mark being a "collar" type scratch about 5 cm down from the top, forming a sort of high water mark from relatively deep insertion. $23.

Cinelli stem, '80s, the "oyster" variety with angled bolt behind the handlebar. 26.0 mm HB diameter. Has a variety of very small marks, but general effect is very high polish and looks generally good from all angles. 90 mm extension, 135 mm quill, $18

Modolo Corsa tourist-type brake levers--a version that works far better than I think all others of this type. Black body with silver levers. Probably end of the '70s / early '80s. "Drilled" at the factory, or perforated, anyway. They have almost no side-to-side play, so far less slop than the usual Dia-Compe extensions on Mafac or Weinmann, etc. $18.

Raleigh Sprite front fork, 27", believe 4130 Steel--good spare. Original white paint with some patina, from a '70s 23" frame. $10. Steerer is a couple of threads over 210 mm. Could work on a variety of Raleighs from the lower half of their lightweight range. Includes bottom headset race, woo-hoo.

Cinelli 66-44 handlebar, '80s, very clean and bright except two marks on front where something must have been mounted, as if thumbnails rubbed furiously in one very small spot on either side of the stem, each one about 4 mm x 2 mm in area. 26.0 mm diameter. $18.00

Thanks for looking. Shipping at cost. E-mail me with any questions, and if need be I can try to get an image or two with a scanner to send as jpegs.
