Warthog Posted February 5, 2015 Share If it had a 3speed, it would be exactly like one I used to ride to school! except mine was black! Edit: Sturmy Archer of courseI rode the exact same one as this to school, no gears. Black was the standard colour, some were done in an ugly green, and a few in red.

LeTurbo Posted February 5, 2015 Share Hope this belongs here... Hoooo. How much does that thing weigh? Amazing the weights we used to shift around as skinny little schoolkids ... but the youth of today! Etc, etc. Slowbee's looking for something comfy and upright for Audax - think this could be what he's after? Hehe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest notmyname Posted February 6, 2015 Share What is the opinion on Rudge bikes. I've found two that need some love. Both are still as original as when they made the trip to SA from the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyYou Posted February 6, 2015 Share While looking for a C Record FD online I cam across this site http://www.cyclollector.com/gb/ Not much in stock, but prices are far less than eBay and postage is reasonable. For those of you that hunt to interwebs! edit: for example a VITUS 979 frame and fork for €170 Edited February 6, 2015 by HeyYou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeyYou Posted February 9, 2015 Share Another find, for those wanting replacement non aero and aero brake hoods. Apparently these fit the Campag non aero brakes. http://247cycleshop.com/epages/726cf202-99f3-48ca-823d-63e916b367ab.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/726cf202-99f3-48ca-823d-63e916b367ab/Products/603 georgehallscycle@aol.com I bought 6 pairs, cost me £38.48, including postage to SA. Pretty cheap for 6 pairs. http://247cycleshop.com/WebRoot/Store15/Shops/726cf202-99f3-48ca-823d-63e916b367ab/543B/B499/1CF6/33FE/696B/0A48/3539/F519/849368225566.jpeg Edited February 9, 2015 by HeyYou Ibex and Loose cog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJR Posted February 13, 2015 Share Thanks to a very generous Hubber (Le Turbo) who was willing to let me have a pair of classic Campy Shamal wheels at a very reasonable price, the Colnago Bititan is now another step closer to how I would like it to be. It runs like a dream on its new Continental Gatorskin tubbies and looks like the wheels were designed especially for it. It is my first ride to run tubbies, so, here's to no punctures! Argue with me if you like, but bikes don't come much prettier than this. Now, if anyone has a longish Campy aero seat post in 27,2 mm lying around for a reasonable price....... danthunders, EvanB, Barker and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
