The Trading Post

I am going ahead with the idea of facilitating barter exchanges between readers, chosing the old-school method in the interest of simplicity. And so, I invite you to use the "Remarks" section of this post for your wishlists and your lists of available items. I can't predict how useful this will be, but it's here for us all as a resource.

Some basic guidelines, if you will:

Please describe the items you have/ want in list form. They are easier to read that way.

Remember to include your contact info!

You do not need to post an equal number of "have" and "want" items. It's fine to post only one and not the other.

Monetary exchanges are fine, but please do not list selling prices here. If you are interested in an item and would like to buy it instead of trading for it, please contact the lister privately over email.

Not everything in your list needs to be bicycle-specific. For example: your "want" list can include bicycle components, but your "have" list can include vintage cameras.

Please do not reply to each other in the comments, but contact the lister directly if you have any questions for them. I will occasionally go through the comments to clean up clutter.

Post as often as you like, and feel free to delete your older comments if they contain outdated information.

I am not responsible for the comments posted by other readers, for any items offered by other readers, or for your interactions with other readers. Please use your judgment!

  34. The VO fenders I listed before have gone to a new home.

    Today I have:
    Shimano PD-M324 SPD pedals. These are $84 pedals that have SPD clicks on one side and platform on the other. They are great but I find that I never ride clicked in and always ride the platforms. I cannot include the cleats (mtn bike) because I need them for spin class.

    Want: Rivendale Grip King pedals. If they are in good shape, I'll trade you the more valuable Shimano and call it even because you will have to buy cleats.

    Also Want:
    Pair of vintage Raleigh block pedals. I can't trade the Shimanos for these but will pay for them.

  42. I have a rack with a spring that mounts to the handlebars that functions as a "purse rack". Got it from the Bicycle Muse so you can look on the site to get an idea. It mounts on the inside area of the handlebars. It can also theoretically be mounted on the outside too like a makeshift front rack. I got this because I wanted more hauling area and because I did not want to reconfigure my front light system on my dutch bike. It's great for any size purse or even large grocery items like juice bottles. Small things will fall out on the sides. It's spring loaded so you dont need bungee cords or anything.

    I really dont have a want so if there's something unique that you make or have, make me an offer! I really live for unique things.

  59. HAVE:

    I am selling both my '71 Raleigh Tourist (with custom rack!) and '81 re-powdercoated/updated mixte so feel free to contact me if you are interested and in the Minneapolis area, unless you are willing to pay for shipping. I love both of these bikes to death and am more than happy to talk your ear off about them! :)

    It's been a nice run with the vintage bikes, but the more serious I've become with transportation cycling, the more I've come to realise that I need a modern bike with modern components.

    That said, anyone who has a quality used bicycle that they think might suit these purposes and fit a 5'5" female, then I'd be happy to discuss a trade or partial trade or something like that. I'd prefer an upright bike but would be willing to consider a versatile diamond-frame bike as well.

    Email me: mfarrington@gmail.com for more photos/info.

  67. First I have a pair of 1951 Raleigh Sports. His is complete, mostly original, and does get ridden on occasion. Hers is nearly complete but mostly in pieces. These are the ones with the fully enclosed chaincases. I'm open to all sorts of commuter, folder or recumbent bike stuff. I may be interested in other non-bike related trades. I'm ADD so you never know what might catch my fancy. I'd also be willing to sell rather than trade.

    I also have an Atala Turista 5 speed. It is virtually identical to the one shown here... http://oldroads.com/oldroads_files/696_1.jpg
    Again I'm open to all sorts of things to trade or sell outright.

    I'm not willing to ship though so interested parties would need to come to Muncie, IN. We can talk and trade pictures, etc. through chopin (at) safe-mail.net
    Thanks!

  68. I have a few lovely bicycles that need a new home. I live in Seattle, so local would be great unless you want to pay for shipping.

    Have:

    80's miyata eighty se in awesome condition,all original except the brake levers and grip tape and saddle. I have the original brake levers that I will send with the bike. Its a sporty purpley blue with cork colored griptape. It is a womens step through. Email for pictures. It's almost like riding a new bike from the 80s. 52cm bike with about 52cm virtual top tube. Want to sell this bike.

    Raleigh techneum frame light blue. It's mostly aluminum with some steel. You all probably know the frame better than I do. It's 51cm with a top tube of 54cm. Diamond frame. Would be willing to trade this for a leather saddle or something else tempting.

    Email me at erinhanada at gmail dot com

    Thank you! And thank you to Velouria for having such a great site.

  69. I have Raleigh DL1 that I have restored/built-up from a late 50s/early 60s frame. I've used authentic used Raleigh parts where I could and modern reproduction items both -[eg]new Eastman rims and complete brake hardware. It has a good condition Brooks B72 saddle. Pitting on the handlebars and cranks are minimal. 3 speed Sturmey works just fine. New tires. 24 inch frame.

  88. WANT:
    AZOR OMA WORKCYCLES TEST RIDE

    This is not a trade but a request for a favor. I am considering getting an Azor Oma Workcycle but of course, there is no dealer nearby. I need to test ride the bike before I buy it so I was wondering if there were any Oma owners in the area who would be willing to help a sister out by allowing me to stop by and take yours for a test spin sometime.

    Thanks!
