HeyYou

I've never been asked on Project Free for credit card details. Might be one of the streams they list, but there are normally several, so try one or two of the others.

PS Found this link for cycling, anyone else used it??? https://www.procyclinglive.com/livestream/#

Might also be the software you're using for streaming. If it's flash, you can adjust the buffering store. I find if I go to 10megs it's fine most of the time, even on a 2mbps adsl. Right click and see if it gives you the option.

Treasure? Secret Eroica dc motor for the Le Jeune

My Eroica ride, though yet to try it out now that it's absolutely ready.

Never too much, love reading your reminisces. About 5 years before me and a different country, but thank you. MORE!

THANK YOU RICHARD I for one, and I'm sure there are many, many others, would like to hear as much as you can impart, please. None of this history should be lost, please write it down and let's see the pictures. Thank you again, looking forward to the next episode.

Thanks Boyd.R I have 2 others built and another on the way, to whet your appetite, some pics! My favourite bikes!!!!!!! I like all my others, but the Tommos remain my favourites. Edit: Sherbert, I should know better, I left out the H in whet and didn't pick it up, until re reading my post

http://projectfreetv.so/ back again, give them a try for TV series

I've been off DSTV 5 years and I use a very simple and cheap solution. I have an old laptop, which I use as a media server, next to my TV. Bottom line I stream from this to my TV, using Mweb 2mbps uncapped, fine for Netflix. I also have a Chromecast setup on another TV and using the Chromecast app, can watch on another TV from my phone, or Tab. Simple and nice, even I could set it up without a problem!!! I'd prefer to go 4mbps, but I live 4 km away from my nearest exchange, so too much dropoff, apparently. There are simple solutions!

Now I have my own 'mystery'. I have a pair of COPPI hubs. Not quick release, but wing nuts. My sleuthing can't find a sausage! I'm assuming 50s or early 60s, anyone any ideas??????

From Steel-Vintage, a great resource!!!!! This is a nice Diamant classic steel bicycle frame and fork. The frame and fork are made of very light profiled steel tubes by ORIA. The frame has really nice lugs and pantographs. We de-painted this frame and can optionally paint it in a color of your choice. The option of new painting would additionally cost 149 Euro. A different model, but I think Diamant. You lucky boy, you know whom to sell it to cheaply, if you want

A closer look, found I could magnify the images, frame has 2 bottle cage mounts. Probably then later 80s, 87/88.

To add to Wazza's imput: Cinelli BB shell means very little, Cinelli sold them to builders, like Campag sold dropouts. No pump peg, so indicates later 80s. Only 1 bottle cage mount, indicates before 1986ish. Campag dropouts, so probably not South African, probably (??) a 'higher' end and Italian frame. Brake cable guides, not internal, probably pre 1986/7. I have no idea of frame identity, would need lots more pics to even hazard a guess. But date wise, my guess would be mid 80s, probably not earlier than 85 and no later than 88. MTCW PS. I think Cinelli sold both English and Italian thread BB shells. That should narrow down even more where it was built. Italian always used Italian thread, almost everyone else (except French thread!!!!!!), used English.

Ha, but then you woke up!

Yup, it was a different life! 52/42 and 12/19, or 13/19 for 6/7 spd, those were the days, now it's 13/28, and 50/34 and I still struggle to get up the hills!!! Can only hit 40 km/h going vertically down.

That's why I built up a zini, with 105. Perfect for eroica!!!!

I have a 59cm, as stamped, Vitus 979 frame& fork. It's early 80s, probably 82/84. It has the seat post bolt and clamp, not the grub screw. It has a single water bottle point, not 2. The cable routing is internal along the top tube. It is too big for me. I don't want to sell it, I want to swop for a smaller size, 54 to 56, if anyone is interested. Happy to send pics, if anyone really interested.

Well done Stan, I hope it's a huge success.

Agree. Maybe it's worth contacting Campag and asking what they use to bond the coil into the crank arm. Or, what they recommend you use.

If you find more than your'e looking for, I'd appreciate a heads up. Need to get to my mid 80's Tommasini MTB rebuild.

Some of the guys on here have seen many lovely 'old' gems. Still a good idea to tap into their experience. Take pics of the wheel dropouts/lugs, check them yourself, are there 'names' stamped into the lugs? Check the frame lugs too, with pics. Fork crown, what does it look like? You never know, you may well have found a GEM, either way, whatever it is, you can be sure she's rare and, probably, not made in China!

Will do, but have a house full for the next 2 weeks, so please give me a reminder about the 12th and I'll check.
