cape Posted February 16, 2014 Share I'm on a sick leave until the 23rd so I thought I'd spec an another bike. So this is what I got, an 80's Rossin Record. It's green, built with Columbus Pre-SL and has something called a "retinato" paintjob. The Basso I built earlier is essentially a commuter and this one will be more like a ss long haul trucker (I wish I had one of those). I really have no idea what they were thinking of when they made this:http://lh5.ggpht.com/-ilsVwJ5mC9Q/UR4J431D1mI/AAAAAAAALLo/4wC6-KS-mVQ/s0/Rossinrecord.jpghttp://lh3.ggpht.com/-OZ1n9wcO6JA/UR4JnlpaD3I/AAAAAAAALKg/QUfyHnAh42c/s0/Rossinrecord6.jpghttp://lh4.ggpht.com/-yZ-o44kmCGY/UR4JrlfLztI/AAAAAAAALKw/ql93L6EQGi0/s0/Rossinrecord8.jpghttp://2.bp.blogspot.com/-T8yfZ2TutuY/T6a-jKWLw8I/AAAAAAAAAyk/JfFo6B8DuZg/s1600/pepsodent.jpg Edited February 23, 2014 by cape Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cape Posted February 23, 2014 Share The frame is in worse nick than I thought. Both the fork thread and the bb shell thread have been damaged. How serious is this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quintonb Posted February 23, 2014 Share Depends on how badly damaged, but a good bike shop or an engineering shop should be able to chase the threads. Pretty simple job. cape 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cape Posted February 23, 2014 Share Thanks quintonb,There is a noticeable dent on the steerer which is preventing me from installing the headset. I'll give my LBS a call tomorrow and see what they can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
