  1. This came out so nicely.
  2. If its 60cm C to C and 58 top tube length then I am Very interested.
  3. Absolutely perfect bud. Well done. I love it. You need a pair of TIME Titan Mag pedals for that.
  4. Is there a matching frame on the way too?
  5. Also got the SMS. Would love to know if spec is the same, because its a brilliant deal.
  6. Freuler frame ideal for Olffie1
  7. Any idea of cost for these?
  8. The only Alu frame for a guy your height and weight is a Cannondale, don't even look any further. https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/260210-cannondale-caad-5-brand-new/ Try this out. May be a little big, depending on your inseam measurment. But this is something you should be looking at. Otherwise the other option is a "Classic" steel frame. Depends on what type of riding you want to do of course.
  9. Looks amazing, who did that paint for you?
  10. Spent Saturday stripping down, cleaning, polishing and rebuilding the Moser. Its has a Columbus SLX tubeset and is a Team issue frame, so top of the range in its day. I decided to keep the Shimano 600 Tricolour on it for now. The bike was bought new as a frame set only and the owner had the bike shop build it with 600. So I decided to keep it as originally purchased. A few small chips on the paint, but otherwise in superb condition, even the chrome is amazing considering its age and living along the Durban coastline.
  11. Got this over the weekend, agreed on a price with the seller last night (who happens to be a guy I know very well). It was his fathers bike and he bought it new and spec'd it with Shimano 600 7 Speed. I have a Campag C-Record groupset with Delta's that i think may look very nice on this frame. Frame is in amazing condition, 2 or 3 paint chips and the chrome is in outstanding condition. Pictures not the greatest, will post once I have stripped and cleaned it all up.
  12. That would be good marketing for sure. The first versions like the ones I have had the issue with the velcro. I also have re-glued mine a few time... just saying
  13. These work very well. I bought a set ages ago from CWC and use them on my Thule hanging rack for my kids bikes. Much better than a pool noodle and they dont get lost in transit somewhere along the freeway. I find most racks bikes sit very close, this way I know non of the bikes will rub against each other. Im very happy with how they work, just my 2 cents.
  14. She turned out nice Steve. You use vinyl decals or water transfer and where did you get them from?
  15. Damn, looks very nice. Well done. May I ask who did the chrome work for you, looks like they did a good job?
  16. My new addition. Needs a solid strip, clean and polish. It has ergo's on at the moment but I have the original record brake levers. Will put them on once cleaned and rebuilt.
  17. I need those bars and stem and some fiemme rims and I can complete my Cinelli special corsa track bike. Damn stunning looking piece of art.
  18. You Bastard...
  19. Wally and Ingrid have always been super involved. When I was racing competitively at schoolboy lever in the mid to late '80s they were there to support the Natal team and always sponsored young up and coming riders. Congrats on the shops birthday.
  20. If you ever want to sell that frame, please get hold of me.
  21. Raul Alcala (PDM) era Concorde. Let's see some pics. That Somec is stunning. Everything about their bikes is just so classy and so much detail. Nice find.
  22. Thats an Exage groupset on the bike.
  23. Images of my 1989 Hansom (Right), and Colnago. Colnago doesnt qualify because it has a modern groupset on.
  24. What makes you think it's a de Rosa?That little heart shaped lug is there to stop the gear shifter clamp from sliding down the frame when there is tension on the cables.
  25. Bill Lange only made custom frames. He never made production frames. So every Delange you ever come across will have been made for a specific person. This is what makes them so great... Hence Bill only ever making around 200. All bespoke made to order.
