Needs to be ridden once built up, not exactly my cup of tea, but I can see from the images it is a quality piece of kit.

Yes please! i would be very interested in an original Coke bottle from this era, if anyone has one?
As Kettlo mentioned, the tricolour bars were for Bastille day during the tour, and i'd agree, i would'nt get too bothered by trying to replicate them. The white Benotto ribbon will be hard enough to source!
Fignon used Time Titan Magnesium which do appear for sale from time to time, although NOS are very rare and will be expensive. The cleats do come up for sale now and again as wel, i once bought a pair of knackered old shoes in the past, just to get a spare set of Time cleats, so you could try that as an option.
Time for more photos.............
Yes, he did use them, Equip Mag Ti (or maybe just Mags with the steel axles, the Ti axles were a bit bendy).kettlo":chsgec4k said:
I've got probably half a dozen pairs of various vintage, some still in use, some not. Unfortunately, i've got none of the original square ones left. They were well battered and ended up in the bin. Still using my Original red and yellow time eq pro shoes tho
They do, however, turn up on ebay occasionally. I did for a good long while trawl ebay looking for cleats, and fairly regularly (once a month?) saw a pair or two of pedals. Not looked for a while, but i can imagine they still crop up.
In fact, a pair went in october on ebay (just came up while i was double checking the name of the shoe
)And, theres another pair.......

Ah thanks,I am waiting for some alternate wheels so the 8 speed probably won't be used as the frame should be 126mm rather than 130.

Kettlo is getting the race number printed up with an actual copy of Fignons bike so 41 with the sponser Castelli,rather than vittel so hopefully this will enhance it further ! Yes coke bottles......................
Coke bottles have been sourced and ordered! I have a good number coming which i will be offering for sale on here. They are coming from Europe so I am not sure how long they will take to get here. But they seem to be genuine TDF ones spanning a couple of years but I will sort tht out when I get them.....
