Never greet roadies in the cradle or anywhere for that matter, even when they greet you

Price on a carbon mtb seat post (31.6cm) and an mtb integrated stem and carbon bar please

Looks awesome! If you dont mind my asking, where and how much did you get the annodizing and powder coating done? Cheers

Spoke to cycledelic, Said a few things, 1. Don't use a chemical stripper 2. Hand sanding although time taking is best. 3. Start off with a 220 grit paper, wet sand all the paint off the frame 4. Once all the paint has been removed use a 400 grit paper and wet sand the marks from the 220 away. 5. Finish with a 600grit wet sand and will be finished! Takes a lot of time, cycledelic quotes +-R1500 for the job as it takes around 4 days labour!

Cant go wrong with the pixie, have one and the separate milk frother is very convenient. Makes much better froth than the inclusive machines IMO, also a lot easier to remember to clean!

Anyone heard of getting carbo lift (google it) in SA????

Wow! Spoke to the seller, he/she says they were bought november 2011! Thanks for the replies

Sure thing, then Think maybe I should post a tutorial type thing once finished?

Look like 2006 brakes to me as they are not skeleton brakes

Anyone got any idea what year these chorus brakes are from? Come from this ad https://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/53648-barely-used-campagchorus-groupset/ Any thought as to the years of the other components? Thanks guys Sam

Dont think any abrassives are a good idea... Will give cycledelic a call tomorrow, see what they will tell me.

Exactly what im thinking, how does the acetone work?

Thanks, will definitely do some research into this, sounds great

No ill effects?

Solved.

Any chance you would post pics somewhere for us to see? Maybe a new thread? 'DIY tools'

Thanks very much

Anyone got reccomendations and places where I can get some? Much apreciated, cheers Sam
