Bike Stuff for Sale

I can be a bit of hoarder. Most of my stuff is of the "vintage bike racing" variety. I have finally decided that it is time to cut ties with a lot of items that of late have done nothing but collect cobwebs in my basement. A few of these items are listed below.

I am motivated to get rid of these and ultimately I understand that any dollar given in exchange for these items is more than what I have for them right now. However, I also have an understanding of that these items do have some value and therefore I have a minimum threshold.

That said, any reasonable offer will be entertained. So, in no particular order, here are a few of the items:

Albert Eisentraut Tandem:







This is a late 70's tandem hand built by Albert for a very good friend of mine who happened to be Albert's college roommate. I have had since the mid-90's and it has been ridden "sparingly". 

Top Tube both front and back measures 56cm c to c and the seat tube measures 53cm c to c for both front and back.

Parts are a mix of Campagnolo NR and SR and TA Cranks. There are a few minor scratches in the places that you would expect to find them on a 30+ year old bike. The wheels are 27" (popular at that time) built onto 48 spoke Campagnolo large flange hubs. The wheels alone are a rarity.

Campagnolo Nuevo Record Brakes NOS:


What needs to be said? These are Campagnolo Nuovo Record Brakes that are New Old Stock. And yes, they still have the cardboard piece on the adjusting barrel. The box itself has some minor damage to it. Included are original cables and housing.

Campagnolo Sigma Pave Tubulars, C-Record Hubs



36 hole with Vittoria Competition tubular tires. I will include the Sun Tour New Winner freewheel. These wheels are bullet proof. If I could figure a way to put a 10 speed cassette on them I would still be racing them, but I can't. So I am selling them. 

As I said, I am motivated to sell this stuff. Any REASONABLE offers will be entertained and probably accepted, because this stuff is just collecting dust and cobwebs in my basement. Seriously , make me an offer.
