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Post as often as you like, and feel free to delete your older comments if they contain outdated information.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

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.
ReplyDeleteI 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.

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.

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.
ReplyDeleteI 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

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.

Hi, have a nice A.N.T Boston Roadster for sale or trade toward a road bike. Have a Light Roadster from ANT so have not ridden the Boston for some time. Its a 2009, like new. Link to craigslist below for contact info.

Hi, I'm on a quest for a child-toting commuter bike. I have tried the Yuba, a friend's Xtracycle, and am hoping to try out the Fr8 soon in NYC. I live in the Boston area. Here is my wish list for my new bike:
ReplyDelete• step-through frame
• double kickstand
• easy to ride, to walk uphill, to load and unload (no squirrely front wheel when loaded, no struggling up mild hills, no rattling over bumps and potholes, no tipping over while I get stuff/kid on board)
• upright geometry, swept-back handlebars
• fenders
• chain guard or full chain case
• 8+ gears
• good brakes (not necessarily disc brakes, but they have to be strong)
• low maintenance (good components)
• child seat (30-50 lbs of kid)
• bag for work (~30 lbs) (would like to use my own if possible)
• basket (for last-minute stuff)
• balloon tires (my route is so full of potholes and bumps!)
• dynamo lights (for those late October, November, early March days that are warm enough to ride but getting dark early)
• sprung saddle (Brooks B67)
• pretty, classy looks
Any advice? Should I try to build up this dream bike? Or does it exist?
Have you looked at the Madsen? Miss Sarah from girlsandbicycles.ca has (had one) one. Lighting will likely be an add on which ever bike you get.
DeleteYes, I looked at the Madsen, but it is "too much bike" for me with just one kid and one or two bags.

ReplyDeleteInterested in finding one of those Indian DL-1 roadster knock-offs (project I'm working on). Yellow Jersey bike shop in Madison, WI used to import and sell the Eastman roadster, but not that they stopped, it's been a bit trickier tracking one down. I'm looking for the step-through frame version. Eastman/Avon are some of the most common brands here in the US it seems.
If interested and you have one of these bikes (or part of one) please send me an email mfarrington at gmail dot com. I am happy to take care of shipping, etc too. Thanks!

I'll add my vintage DL-1 'This is sweet ride, and just in time for Tweed Ride. This is a hard to find bike, I spent months looking for one and only found one in Ohio. It is a great grocery getter, and wonderful on long stretches of road, like it's home territory, the countryside on England. Surprisingly quick and very regal upright riding position. Get this bike up to speed, and it simply flys! This is a highly desirable vintage bike, and it's in much better than average condition. I'm selling it with great reservations because I need the money to buy a bike I want more; desire is a cruel mistress.
DeleteMade in Nottingham England, a Vintage 1973 Rod Brake Raleigh Tourist DL-1 Mens Roadster, 3 speed internal hub, large frame, fully restored and well maintained. Includes original manual, original multi-tool wrench (or "spanner"), and original saddle bag! Brooks leather saddle included, with new saddle clamp. Brake Pads, tires (tyers), tubes, seat post, and several small parts replaced with New-Old-Stock, used parts, or new parts, as appropriate. Magnificent Kool-Stop pads (expensive) added for enhanced braking power. Includes frame pump. Brand new Schwalbe Delta Cruiser tires (tyres). New Wald Wooden Basket added to front with custom-made stays. Bottom braket completely removed, re-greased and serviced at local bike shop. New chain and reduced gearing for faster off-the-line and a more useful 3rd gear, but I'll incude the original gear if you want it. New, LOUD "ding-dong" bell. Everything is in full working order, and as original as my restoration philosophy deems appropriate."

Hi! I'm trying to choose between a Raleigh dl-1 and a Raleigh 3 speed from '69. Both bikes that you have similar ones of! I commute to work about 2 miles and go pretty slow. I just need to carry things in a basket and have something trusty. I do not need to carry it upstairs... yet.
ReplyDeleteDo you have any recommendations on how to choose between these two bicycles?
I had a DL1 and sold it a while ago on ebay. I now have a Raleigh Sport. If I had to choose I would get the more modern Raleigh Sport. My reasoning:
Delete1) I would worry more about the DL-1 being stolen and it is more valuable.
2) The brakes are more modern on the Sports and the bike is much lighter making it more practical and comfortable to ride than the DL-1. Still the DL-1 is unbeatable on a sunny day in the country. It is a bike to rather value and have as a keepsake more so than an "everyday commuter."
Bonjour.

Hello,
ReplyDeleteI have a 55c Yellow Araya Excella Sportif that I had a friend bring from Japan.
The Excella Sportif is a sport tourer or club ride type of bike.
It is made for Araya by Tange in Taiwan with Kansei 022 tubing. Kansei is the heir to the talent from Ishiwata. Most of the Keirin bikes are made with Kansei as well as fine bikes like the Toyos. If you have seen the construction of a Soma Stanyan or San Marcos the Excella is similar, they are all made by Tange.
The stock Excella Sportif is built with mid level Shimano components. I have built mine with Ultegra/Dura Ace and VO parts.
We have moved to a smaller place and I'd rather see the bike with some one who will ride it more than a hand full of times each yar.
