this is a really nice classic Holdsworth Professional from maybe around 1975, I guess, faithful renovation by the looks of it with nuovo record group and large flange hubs. I would think it should be worth £1K or more if in the UK. You need to be patient to get a buyer. You might want or expect...

Hi - in a moment of absolute genius :facepalm: I ground the teeth off of the driveside cup on my record bb. Its square taper, 102mm BSA sealed with the carbon body. Anyone have a spare e.g. as would happen if the bearings had gone bad? My bearings are fine, so it is a shame to waste the...

Re: They are beautiful and - what makes it really painful to look at them - they are about my size (or maybe a centimeter big). I don't see many frames in 63cm+. It must be because this guy owns them all.

I appreciate this is a long shot. I have lost a single thule foot (mod 757). I have bars and I also have a set of 4 locks I can use, so I just need the one foot. Unfortunately cannot find a reasonable price for one used replacement foot. Does anyone by any chance have one knocking about?

sigh But so much less amusing!

It sits upright if the you have the commemorative 50th anniversary plinth. That's a truly rare item that I unfortunately don't have.

Well stringfellow, I'm not sure you're getting in the spirit of this thing. You have to admire the unique character of the item, the historical aura, the poetic dignity, the spare elegance and innate simplicity of the design....While you are lost in admiration, reach down to your computer...

It's amazing It's a Campagnolo 50th dustcap tool. £1000 (or best offer)

Period chainset would be record strada with 42-52 and it does not go to 39. 39's only came in I believe in the late 1980s. With 42 front I would need a 29 minumum rear large cog to safely get up the hills near where I ride (down to the Scottish Borders on occasion). Actually I use a 39/28...

The N/R rear says Pat-73 on it. The campagnolo jockey wheels a little wobbly...probably need replacing. Otherwise mechanically sound.

Today they were already ardently at work catching potholes. Excellent rims! Thanks.
