  1. A complete Zeus 2001 groupset is very difficult to get. I restored a Razesa a few years back which has older Zeus centre put brakes. Here is a link to some pics on FB https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.542345669662740&type=3
  2. Getting Campagnolo levers is getting very hard to find and expensive. I would recommend you replace the hoods. Cheaper option. PM to order (I have stock).
  3. Thank you Buff. Apparently Jasper is looking for cheaper hoods. My cost price is R465 and I sell them for R500 a pair ????
  4. Sent you a PM
  5. IMHO I would go for a lazer weld as suggested earlier and then see if the balance is maintained. You can import a new rail but you would then also need to import new rivets to re-attach the leather seat. May be cheaper to buy another saddle. They often come up for sale. Looks like a Professional? I have a couple, great saddles.
  6. I have two Thule racks, the cheap fold up type which stores in a bag. Made to take 4 bikes but I removed one pair of the bike holders. Used on a few road trips and the benefit is you can take it off and store in the boot at your destination. Use pool noodles and bungey cords to secure bikes together. The other is a 4 bike, tilting older unit. Heavy but its lasted well. Can be difficult to mount 4 road bikes but sized up and once again protested with pool noodles you will be ok. Takes 2 or 3 bikes comfortably. Buy 2nd hand. I use a separate chain to lock the bikes to the car's towbar to prevent theft but then don't like to leave the bikes unattended for long, even at pitstop stations, etc. Thule is expensive but quality and longevity have a price.
  7. I still have this red one
  8. It looks like the frame I owned a couple of years ago.
  9. IMG_2.jpg The Moser is lovely. The original dark blue frame looks very familiar.
  10. Haha, I was wondering why you posted the other bikes! Makes a change..........

  15. I have new rubber brake blocks but looking for the holder. LBS haven’t seen them since the 80’s ????
  16. I have an early 60’s RIH built with Campagnolo Gran Sport. I think I posted a pic or two on the retro bike thread.
  17. Thank you FirstV8 for the offer but I am looking for a specific Campagnolo block//holder as in the photo. Don't throw away those blocks as they becoming rare.
  18. Sorry, I realised that most people wouldn't know what I am talking about. Here is a pic of the calipers showing the missing brake block/holder.
  19. I am looking for an old Nuovo Record/Super Record brake block holder. Willing to buy the part. Regards
  20. R1,200 - R1,500
  21. Let's make some tees but change the wording to "if you've never ridden a Colnago ....."
  22. I am selling this one of a kind Peugeot Carbon Pro painted by the ex-rider Richard Row Unfortunately the frame is too big for me and it has to go to make space for another project. Measures 56cm centre BB to top seat lug (55cm centre to centre) with 55cm top tube Campagnolo Chorus 10s groupset New 3ttt bar and stem Selle Italia Turbo Matic 2 saddle on rare Corima aero seatpin Corima 50mm wheels with new Gatorskin tubulars The Carbon Pro was released in Europe in the 1989 season and became a sought after bike after our local pros were sponsored them. This particular frame was bought by Richard Row who spend a few bob custom painting the frame and building it up to ride. Unfortunately circumstances prevented it from being ridden after the paintwork was completed and I bought the bike a few years back. The Chorus 10speed groupset is in very good condition. Contact me for more pics and details Also willing to strip and sell off frame.
  23. This is a mid to late 70’s Super. Nice find and would be a pity to see it as a SS. 70’s Campy parts are expensive but this bike will also look very nice with 2nd generation Dura Ace Tried posting this in a "Help me identify this Colnago" thread when I was offered this bike, however received no response. Trying again here after having bought the bike, somewhat impulsively Any ideas which Colnago this might be? It does say "Mexico" on a label, though I am 99% sure it isn't a Mexico as the fork does not match the pictures I have seen?
  24. I am looking for a head tube decal like this . 20200724_172425.jpg
