Spirog Posted April 8, 2016 Share Even harder to find are replacement cleats!I've found someone who has a digital printer. If I can get hold of one of these cleats, I may be able to get some made. Loose cog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeTurbo Posted April 8, 2016 Share Correct period Eroica gear for me would be: Bata toughees, grey knee-length socks, probably bad Leroy-in-Fame polyviscose shorts, and a Pic-a-Pet Randburg (my worst job ever) T-shirt. DJR, Loose cog, HeyYou and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry_W Posted April 8, 2016 Share If anyone still needs that classic finishing touch for their Eroica kit Velotex is making a Retro range. kamaalo, Loose cog and Kenty 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeTurbo Posted April 8, 2016 Share Are we going to see you there? Sigh .... no, can't do it this year. Too tight financially. I'll think of you all there, and grit my teeth, and cry in my pillow, bwahaha! Kenty and HeyYou 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loose cog Posted April 9, 2016 Share Finishing off this Eddy Merckx 10th anniversary limited edition. The Merckx frame was released in 1990 to celebrate Eddy Merckx' first decade as a frame maker. The groupset is a late 80's Campagnolo Athena with 7 speed friction gearing. Anyone have Campagnolo pedals to the completed build? Eddy Merckx panto Cinelli stem and NOS ExA hexagon bars (still need to make some bar end caps unless someone out there has a pair?) finished with some Coppi cork bar tape. White Rolls saddle and Kalloy seatpost (27mm). NOS Campagnolo bottle and cage. Older Record hubs and 7 speed Sachs block shod on Mavic GP 4 tubbies.       Kenty, Rocket ship, Rolfalps and 11 others 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paarlmtb Posted April 11, 2016 Share Bought a Fixie/Singlespeed and am trying to identify the frame that the seller says the chap he bought it off said is a french made frame made in 1972. It has a serial number punched vertically on the headtube as in the pic, can anyone tell me which manufacturers used to place their serial numbers like this on the headtube? Any help will be appreciated as I am fairly curious Kenty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
