I've got a box of mix and match Shimano MTB brake levers and calipers, some of which might be goosed, some may have the dreaded micro-leak and some of which might be fine. Levers should be ok. Free to a good home if you cover whatever it costs to post them with Evri - guessing somewhere between 5 and 10 quid?

XT Levers (M775) x2 -
M445 Calipers x2 - 1 is attached via a longish hose to the LH XT lever, the other is flying solo
M445 Levers x2 - currently unattached
XT Calipers (M775) x 2 - unattached
M355 Caliper - unattached
Assorted spare bits - gaiters, bolts, clips etc

They all came off various bikes for various reasons, varying numbers of years ago, but I think they're too good for the tip. To be honest, after that description, I'm expecting the formation of an orderly line.....

Collection (Sussex) welcome.

Also got a bashed up old set of Sram GXP cranks of indeterminate lineage and uncertain age, much like their current owner. 4 bolt, 175mm. Free if you cover cost of postage, or Sussex collection welcome.

Anyway, in other news.

Does anyone want these for the price of postage (or if times are too hard then I can try and find a way to get em you on the cheap). They were given me by Phil to get me through some of the winter, but now the overshoes I was using have died and so have bought a new pair of winter boots.

These are warm, but no longer waterproof (description by Phil AFAIR). They fit me nicely and have had a comfortable 150 or so miles of use. My size is 10.5 in 5:10 and Adidas and a 47 in the winter Shimano boots, these fit me lovely so I'm guessing they're a 10.5 for me.

Hope that makes sense.

Free to a good home, Ronald Turnbulls' 'Book of the Bivvy' - a key (and highly amusing) read for all contemplating bivvy bag only. I bought this a couple of years ago, but my Mum has just bought me it again, so I'll pass this on.

Hi, just saw this - do you still have the XT levers, poss the calipers also? Saw the 'now gone' post but worth a shot - I'm still using M775s on a bike that has bars that work well with them while new Shimano levers don't. RH lever has a duff spring/pivot area now and it's getting bad but no spares around. Cheers, James

R7000 11 speed front mech. Shimano 105 flavour. As far as I recall I bought it to use briefly on a bike that I was saving up a Dura Ace for. Bit of a mouthful, but hopefully it makes sense.

Postage should be about £4 maybe and if you like it on arrival then feel free to put a few quid on my Rebuilding Syria charity page. 99.9% certain that it has zero issues and that’ll be why I kept it!!

Anyone want my old Chilli Tech camera? Never really got into the habit of using it. Not the best or easiest to use, but it has two batteries, and at least one of them works because I recorded a video to test it. You'll need an SD card and a USB cable. Some bits and pieces with it, including a velcro mount (think it's intended for a helmet). Sure there was a bar mount but I can't find it - may have used it for something else. A few quid to the bear and it's yours.

Anyone want these beauties. Well worn but still got plenty of life. The only way I'll part with em is if someone snatches em out my hand. I'm 32 to 34 waisted and these fit excellent. Zip is slightly sticky but probably just needs the pliers-job doing to it.

Once someone takes em I can buy myself some more.

Some brand spanking new Keelas bought. So these have to go. Plenty of life left IMO. Any takers before they go on the old fleabag for 99p

Excellent work-life balancing trousers for any 34 inch waisted. Excellent on the bike too and I'm happy to get the plier out for that sticky-zippy.

I'm keen! These would be perfect for my job. How's best to contact you?

Hi mate. I can post them out today if you get in touch in time. I think I'll be able to get a postage label by MyHermes for about £4 if that helps. Just message me via the forum and send your details. Perfect timing as I was becoming frustrated at what to do with them as my new Keelas have come (only had to change as I went to work the other day with them and the manager asked me if I was gonna change my trousers - they've obviously been well used ).
