Douser wanted, speedlines for sale

Post by Cromptons »

Hi to save making 2 posts

I am after a brake valve for my bx ( quick tick time back end dropping, lots of fluid through the return). I expect i'll get the replacement valve sent to Pleiades.

Also I think i'm going to sell my spare set of 5.5 speedlines, not sure what they are worth tho....?

Can take photos and give more information if needed.

Depends upon condition, do they come with tyres? & what condition are they in. Prices have crept up a bit, but i paid £40 for a set with tyres, but they can go upto £100+, just depends how badly someone wants them. Why not get some closed bids via pm & who'ever offers the most, gets em :D

If they are in good order with bolts, and usable tyres I'd say £150-175... Or more if someone's really keen... The bolts are worth a fair bit.

. . . and 5.5s are rare so if someone wants them they'll REALLY want them. I'd have said 120 quid at least if they're in half decent nick, tyres or no tyres.

Thanks for replies,

No bolts, 4 x michelin tyres, but think some are flat (expect need re fitting or using)
Been in warm storage ever since I've owned them ( about a year).

Will take some photos asap.

No doseurs?

3/4 tyres soft suspect need re-fitting or maybe just using. all tyres have got plenty of tread estimate around 4/5mm (michelin energy thingys!)

These will be refurbed and fitted to the TZI, I have thought long and hard about fitting alloys to it but the only factory option it is missing are these and every time I see Paul's hurricane with them on I think hmmm they looks bob on!
