I dunno. Must be just me. Arthur -- Arthur Clune http://www.clune.org "Technolibertarians make a philosophy out of a personality defect" - Paulina Borsook |

Isn't that easier? Nope. Maybe 10 quid is too much or I might get lots more than 10 quid and buying through eBay is very easy for the buyer (and seller once the listing is up). It also gives all those interested more of a chance instead of having to be lucky enough to be the first one to see a posting and it cuts out the "have you still got it?" enquiry. I like using eBay to sell items that I don't know the value of* plus it reaches an extra audience. There lots of eBay fans who look through the stuff there every day/week and don't read the cycling newsgroups/forums. * I've got no idea of what people are prepared to pay for this unusual front brake that is normally only bought as part of a pair. I dunno. Must be just me. Hope you are clearer now. ~PB |

It also gives all those interested more of a chance instead of having to be lucky enough to be the first one to see a posting and it cuts out the "have you still got it?" enquiry. I am happy to see what happens with the auction. I watch many items, bid on many with ridiculously low bids in search of a bargain, sometimes win but more often don't. I like using eBay to sell items that I don't know the value of* plus it reaches an extra audience.

They are £21 for a pair at Spa Cycles, much more at SJS who incidently had a pair on eBay a week or two ago which finished at about £20 IIRC. I dunno. Must be just me.

And guess who won those! :-) So I know what a pair is worth, but not a single front brake. cheers ~PB |

You have 3 days 21 hours to wait to see what a single is worth ! |

You have 3 days 21 hours to wait to see what a single is worth ! Indeed. Are you sure the brake won't have toooo much drop for you? I only strictly needed the rear but casually tried the rear on the front first to see if one could be used there as well. Couldn't get the pads high enough - with 700c wheel in Raleigh Royal forks designed for 27". I presume the front drop is same as rear. I quoted SJS's figures on my listing without measuring to check. ~PB |
