No real rush at all. I'm building a bike for our security guard and the deraileur I have is trashed. He will be stoked as he lives about 6 km away from our offices. Just too far to make walking comfortable on these cold mornings/nights but short enough to feel bad about taking a taxi.

Looking for a 5-speed rear cassette for. 90s mountain bike? The one I have has been going strong for the past 25 years and finding a replacement has been pretty impossible. 
 

Also looking for road bike brake levers (without gear levers).

Looking for an Avid Elixir Hydraulic brake caliper. No hoses, or lever needed. It's the last part required to complete a build for my daughter's bike. Willing to pay for it.

Can also drop me a PM if you don't come right. Should have one from an Elixir CR.

Hey guys, I'm looking for an 8 speed MTB rear derailleur. A friend's sister had a checkers packet fly into her drivetrain yesterday and as a result of everything getting clogged up the derailleur snapped in half.

Drop me a PM if you have one you want to get rid of and we can talk prices etc. I'd just like to get her back on the road.

I'm sure 9 speed would work too

Looking for a pair of downtube shifter cable stops or boss covers.

I'm looking for a 26" fork. Straight steerer, quick release.

Anything from 100mm - 120mm will work.

Don't need anything fancy, as it's for my wife's bike that is seldom ridden.

Willing to pay.

Cheers.

Have you come right yet? If not, I may have something that can work.

I picked these up yesterday from Barry, who just happened to be at the right place at the right time. Thank you Barry, you are one of the good ones!
