A decent sized 60's Jensen of Croydon. Not very exciting parts wise but worth the current price (£50) for the frameset alone. Pick up from Bristol ends today:

Tidy looking Nigel Dean Tour Ace in Billinghurst. £60 start:

I reckon this is a repainted '83 Raleigh Competition with a mix of decent parts - could be a nice fast beater. £85 start, West Yorks:

That Jensen is mahoosive , shame Billinghurst is so far away as that looks nice

another whooper - a retro-mod Dave Lloyd on the Wirral. Super tight clearances. Seller says it's 61cm seat tube but it looks similar to my 26" (66cm) Condor. £149 start:

Could be one of his 650b models where the small wheels make the frame look bigger?

Hi
Had it blasted and re finished (Universal Cycles Maltby); picture in link shows 76 on crank arm
I originally thought it to be a Model 86
If riding regularly I would change the tyres; left as original as I could
Have you a link to your bike pics

The bikes were first introduced in 78 I believe.
When the frame was blasted were any tubing identification marks found?

That Cougar in Hebden Bridge is a bargain - it would look stunning with white bar tape, saddle and some shinier components. I'm in West Yorks next weekend but it's too small for me (plus I'm travelling up by train with nonowt Jr.). Even in these times of strange prices, the frame has got to be worth double that at least.

Also on facebook - Mercian F&Fs for £50 in Ramsgate:

I'm that way tomorrow but it doesn't really appeal. I'll get in touch though and see ...
