Thanks Col. I'll bear all that in mind.
Oh yes and I should mention that the total price the VAT etc is worked out on is the purchase price Plus postage! as this is classed as a service you have bought outside of the EU.
The exception to the above is if the total purchase value is below £15 (not including postage) when it is exempt, but this is unlikely to apply to a frame!

<smug mode on> Except I just bought a x57 frame for £4.99 plus postage! Addiction fed! <GRIN> <Smug mode off>

£4.99??

I didn't know Dinky Toys had made a Proflex replica.  :P

Yes I've bought a complete 857 and loads of parts including a 856 frame. Tax seemed to average out at about £30 no matter what I paid? Worth it though as my 857 was brand new and never been ridden, for £300 delivered to my door. Can't fault that!

You know, a scoop like that probably deserves a bit more of an explanation and back story to satisfy our envious curiosity!!!  8)

I'll be selling the carbon forks from my Proflex 957.  They will be on eBay starting Sep 29, 2013 19:22:41 PDT

They aren't in ridable condition.  One metal lug is recessed into the leg.

The story is in the Riders Bikes section, but basically it was left over stock from when the factory shut down. Everything seems to find its way onto EBay in the end..

Hi,
I've broken the rim on my much loved Proflex XP-X.
Looking for a Mavic 221 32 hole rim or rear wheel in gold colour.

If anyone knows of one I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

Uh-oh, according to the description, these bikes have evidently gone from 'retro' to 'vintage'...  ;D

In my world of humour, 'retro' is cool like a hot rod, 'vintage' is like a Model T with the original crank...  ;)

Way Big x57
« Reply #1409 on: October 14, 2013, 04:30:57 am »
Hi All,
Here's a Way Big x57 frame bike for sale in the UK, it's only a 1000, but the front triangle is the same quality across all models, so could be a good swap out if you need a bigger frame.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=161125917675

Oh and by the way, anyone in the UK want to swap a Medium x57 frame front triangle for one of my Large ones?

Col.
