Loose cog Posted February 21, 2016 Share Didn't go to the track - was at the bike shop in the morning, and there was racing at HNP later. Took it out on the roads around my burbs. Funnily enough, I am looking for a 26.8 for an old MTB sorta rebuild...and coming up short for now too! Oh, well, the fun is in the search, right?! Will keep my eyes open for both of us!My Kalloy is in great condition. Will post pic. Tumbleweed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry_W Posted February 25, 2016 Share awesome build Barry Thanks Kamaalo but it was pretty much as is, thanks to Nils at Woodstock Cycleworks, all I did was stem, bars, non-aero brakes and changed the crank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eppie Posted February 26, 2016 Share So who is doing the Cape Town Cycle Tour (Argus) on a vintage bike? And if so which bike will it be? I am doing it on my Colnago Master. Edited February 26, 2016 by Eppie kamaalo and Barry_W 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Climate Posted February 26, 2016 Share I too have been mulling the idea over, of doing the Argus on my BiTitan Master ... pista, Hypernorth, DJR and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loose cog Posted February 26, 2016 Share Climate, I love everything about your bike. It shows excellent taste from the frame angles which are special, DA groupo, Corsa tyres (big thumbs up), Rolls of course, Alter stem shows originality. Only thing out of line is the seatpin you need a nice titanium seatpin. Best bike I have seen for months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJR Posted February 26, 2016 Share Funny that you should mention that......I did last years shorty on the old lady (Colnago Bititan, with C-record. Since added Shamal wheelset.) That little cassette is rough on the legs going up Suikerbossie though.......I'll see what I feel like on the day.

DJR Posted February 26, 2016 Share Doing it on my C50... does that count?Hint hint. If someone offer me a good 10 speed Campy Record groupset for the deal of a lifetime, I promise to join you on my C40. Think that'll count? Loose cog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
