yip is it a San Marco Rolls

definitely worth a restore those parts are great, i considered repsraying mine to a different original Bridgestone colour scheme but decided to keep the blue, if there is too many nick's on yours maybe a respray is an option?

meet Spartacus not sure what frame it is, i think it could be an Alpina? 100% track frame with horizontal drop outs and no water bottle cage bolts, toooo much fun. She is my commuter , hence the narrow bars (which is actually a seat post with a shim ), fits really nicely between the cars as my shoulders are above the rooves of the cars. used vinyl for the colour wrapping and then clear coated over it. http://media-cache-ec3.pinterest.com/upload/251849804132650962_QV93qDzw_c.jpg

epic!! those are some decent parts!! yeah restoration sounds much better busy building an old Alpina into fixie, will post a pic of another fixie i finished a while back shortly

thank you

this is a rad thread, cant believe i never saw it before this is a Bridgestone RB-1 i have been restoring (1988 i think?), she rides like a dream 8 Speed Campag Vento's with 7 Speed Dura Ace RD on friction. Zeus pedals with Christophe toe clips. lots of fun! http://media-cache-ec4.pinterest.com/upload/251849804132730412_YU0idwIF_c.jpg

Yeah seems like they take their slogan 'IAmSpecialized' very VERY seriously!! haha!! jokes aside, change takes time. Aren't the Concept Stores privately owned anyway? like a normal LBS? So it is the owners we should be flaming not the company? If you wanna buy Specialized get it from Olympic Cycles in Cape Town, epic bikes and epic service (pun intended)!!

Thank you so you reckon I can just put a 10 Speed Cassette on without having to change the FreeHub?

Hey Hubbers, I need some help please, I have a set of Campagnolo Vento's (the Silver 50mm Deep Section ones) which are 8 Speed with the old ExaDrive Freehub body. I am wanting to swop the freehub body for a modern 10 Speed one, is this possible? Will the modern freehub work on the ExaDrive specific hub? Many thanks Rae

hey all, I got hold of some peeps and I have good news... the race has been sanctioned with WPTA (which means it will count as part of the qualifying criteria to represent WP at Nationals in 2013). They are currently trying to secure road closures etc with the Metro Police so it will probably be postponed to somewhere in October?

Hey all, New to the Campy thing but I have a set of Campy Vento's (the old 8 Speed Deep Section ones), will a SRAM PG-850 8 Speed Cassette fit on the freehub? Thank you

Hey everyone, As the title suggests I am a little stuck in my lack of knowledge. I have a set of 8 Speed Campag wheels that I am wanting to build up with a 10 Speed Groupset. Is this possible? Thanks

haha! I'm waiting to see if there is a fixie frame coming

Thought you all might be interested, couldnt see if anyone has posted about it so my bad if someone has! looks pretty decent https://www.facebook.com/OlympicCycles
