Here's a pic of these wonderful brakes on this frame: https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/13174642374/in/set-72157637736975573 And a closeup of the same brakes (different set, obviously) on a SimpleOne: https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/6906527983/in/set-72157629391118347 The Bruce Gordon cantis are $300 new for a full bike's worth. http://brucegordoncycles.bigcartel.com/product/bgc-cantilever-brakes These have been ridden for 15 miles since installation. Bombadil frames are incredibly versatile - I've built one up as a road bike with drops https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/4249456177/in/set-72157624552118742 , a Rohloff-equipped loaded touring bike https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/8566366471/in/set-72157624552118742 and the current single speed setup on this frame. https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/13174275065/in/set-72157637736975573/ . Please don't make me put this up on the 'Bay! From: Allingham II, Thomas J (WIL) Sent: Friday, October 10, 2014 4:07 PM To: [email protected] Subject: FS -- 56cm Bombadil Hi, folks! My medium blue 56cm Bombadil is for sale. This is the first of what will likely be several Rivs (Bleriot, Atlantis?) of similar size that I'll probably put up for sale here as I try to fund a new project. I'd be happy to sell it as a frame/fork/headset/BB, or as a complete bike. Frame/fork/headset/BB, asking $1200 shipped. There are some chips and rubs, no dents. If I kept it I would probably have had it repainted, but I'm a bit fastidious about such things. It's a great frameset. Here's a pic: https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/10492202654/in/set-72157637736975573 As a complete bike, you'd be buying a truly unique build - a single speed Bomba built around a beautiful wheelset using Ghisallo wooden rims, complemented by parts selected throughout for beauty, comfort and functionality. Full build list attached, includes high-polish Bruce Gordon cantis with Paul levers, Peter Weigle-modified Campy front hub, White Industries ENO Eccentric rear, Stronglight crank with custom Bespoke Chainrings single ring, Phil Wood pedals, Nitto Bullmoose bars, Nitto Lugged seatpost, Berthoud rack/saddlebag combo. It rides like a Riv, with plenty of Hetre comfort. Here's a pic: https://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/13174275065/in/set-72157637736975573/ There are lots of other pics in my Flickr stream. About $4500 invested. I know this bike is not for everyone, but if you're interested you won't find another bike like it anywhere. I don't have a clue what a bike like this is "worth", so if you're the right buyer, make an offer for the full bike or some combination of frame and parts you're interested in. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ **************************************************** This email (and any attachments thereto) is intended only for use by the addressee(s) named herein and may contain legally privileged and/or confidential information.
