    Stuff for a project bike...??

    I have a near-complete Campy OR (ATB or MTB, whatever!) groupset for sale
    (no hubs, chain, cluster). Brand spanking new, none of the parts have ever
    been fitted. Half of the parts and still sealed up in the campagnolo bags.
    Suspect it's a complete original Centaur set but unsure. Consists of:

    Triple Crankset, including beautiful dustcaps, never fitted but not in box,
    48, 36, 26 rings and fixings, says BV - 170 9/16"x20" on back. Perfect.

    NIB Centaur BB 36x24 cups, spindle says 70-ss x3-s, still in packaging
    ,original grease etc.

    New, sealed in plastic campy bags, 2x MTB Caliper brakes. Also sealed in
    plastic, the cable clamps, washers, cables and some rubber boots I am not
    sure where they go.

    27.2 Brev Campy MTB seatpost, about 350mm long (with an inbuilt quick
    release clamp to move the seat!) and saddle angle adjustment dial thing at
    rear.

    7sp (I think) Rear Der, Long reach "Lg" NIB with papers etc.

    Front Der, assume triple, very shiny, new but not in box, perfect condition.

    Weird, and big, brake levers. Thumb (indexed) shifters slide into them and
    are supposed to be clamped. Haven't been able to find a picture like them
    on the intrenet - not even close! Never been assembled, a few chips of
    paint are off one lever from rattling around in a box somewhere.

    Campy Bear Trap pedals, new, looks like never fitted. They will come with
    some strange form of silver-coloured half toe-clip. Fixings for these are
    still sealed in plastic bag.

    New but dusty/shop soiled 'aero' campy drink bottle, 500ml and bidon cage.

    Parts are located in Australia, but post overseas is far cheaper than your
    post to here. (I will also be in Europe late September). Looking for
    offers, or parts will be put on ebay for the wolves...

    Email [email hidden] for more info or to make me an offer
    Thanks
    Gemma

    Stuff for a collector. I'd put that up on ebay and advertise it
    on www.campyonly.com. You'd get good money for it.

    *Very* good money. Also advertise on rec.bicycles.marketplace.

    I would love it but I have spent all my new toy money for quite a long
    time to come. This stuff is seriously collectable and quite valuable. I
    would ebay it if I were you.

    How much money you reckon? *grin*
    I wish I would identify it - I know the stuff in boxes is Centaur, the rest
    could be almost anything (but you'd presume the same, since it was all found
    together). The levers are the weirdest part. Hope to have some pics up
    today. Already put a post on Campyonly.... that's where I tried to first
    identify the parts....

    Cheers

    Thanks to David - the brakes and gear shifters (brand new) are Campagnolo
    Euclid, just like this:

    FWIW I bought a Campagnolo mountain bike front deraileur last year off
    ebay for about 25 UKpounds. I bought a used 2004 model Record front
    deraileur this year off ebay for less. My guess is you could easily get
    US$500 for the group set and might get more.

    This stuff is very rare now, particularly in as new condition.
    Campagnolo didn't make nearly enough of it, and there are a lot of
    cyclists out there who would rather have Campagnolo on their bikes than
    anything else.

    I strongly suggest that you put it all up on ebay and then post
    a pointer here, campyonly.com and rec.bicycles.tech.

    Thanks Simon. I've taken pics of the parts, which can be found on the web
    here:

    I'm still working on identifying it all (I'm nearly there) then unless
    someone makes me a good offer for the lot I'll chuck it all on ebay.

    The r.b.t folk don't like adverts but a mention could be sneaked in by
    asking more details about it.

    I'd offer you £500 for the lot and then flog it on ebay and still be quids
    in I think 🙂

    I couldn't guess for the whole lot. Recent examples:

    url:http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=56193&item=36
    94960070

    url:http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=42331&item=36
    94762839

    .....Ok, perhaps not enough to buy a house with after all, but a 10 day
    auction with good pics and plenty of publicity should fetch decent prices.
    Good luck.

    Arthur,
    I'd take your 500UKP and you can do what you like with those parts...
