Hi, Ron is still around, either in Durban or his home in Jhb, still trading and hoarding bikes & parts. He is active on the Vintage Steel WhatsApp group.

The Durban vintage steel group is active as well, lots of good advice and selling parts etc, not to mention planing local rides. Look us up on face book to join.

Here are some pictures of the recent Gravel Giro, held last weekend in Balitho by Durban Vintage Cycle Club, 30km of dirt and gravel on vintage steel bikes. Special thanks to Toni, Eric, support ladies and Holla Trails for a great morning in KZN.

Very happy with the end result. Has Andrew completed your two?

How many did you find?

Chain holder, screws onto Campag rear dropout, holds the chain in place when changing a wheel.

Also tried to get a full XT group set last October, told I would have to wait till the next shipment sometime in Nov/Dec, went online to Chain Reaction & it was here in 4 days + a voucher for my next purchase. LBS needs to wake up that the options are out there & the consumer will look at the best option that fits in terms of price, service & delivery expectations.

I've had the previous model Spez Sport for 3 years, with good care they look like new still, very comfortable on longer rides.
