    What Happened to Campagnolo?

    They have fulcrum wheels helping prop up sales by getting onto Shimano and SRAM equipped bikes

    Ribble racers

    I love it, it's a bit of a headbanger but it's perfect for going out fast in the evenings for a couple hours

    23mm tan wall tyre options in 2025

    As subject really. What are people's favourite options for a tan wall 23 that's not NOS because I ride the bike when the sun is out

    Ribble racers

    I bought this off you and I've still got it. It's red (a fancy flamboyant one from Argos) now and has a different gruppo, but it's still a flyer

    For Sale You must be VERY tall Rob Telfer frame and new carbon fork for sale.

    He's not kidding. It's enormous. I've seen full grown adults who's seat tubes are shorter than the headtube on this high quality gate.

    How much is my road bike (or parts of) worth?

    a mate was asking me roughly what this big old trek tourer might be worth. Way, way outside my area of expertise, can anyone help please? it's very big - he is 6ft5 and that's his saddle height. drivetrain parts look to be non original, budgety but usable quality, sora chainset, altus...

    Tell me about my wheel (late 70s early 80s?)

    Sorted Kona Curve C3 Crankset

    Good luck. they had a tendency to crack in the taper and so are pretty rare. I had a NOS set back in about 2010 and they lasted 2 years of light use before cracking

    Tell me about my wheel (late 70s early 80s?)

    Great info both, thanks. Braking surface is really tiny to my eye, perhaps that's a clue? I got it from a pile of stuff outside a house clearance labelled 'free, please take' and judging by the wide selection of tools and odd bits etc there the previous owner was a long time tinkerer so may...

    Tell me about my wheel (late 70s early 80s?)

    Acquired a nice wheel recently. Campag record hub, which I think is 70s/80s. The spokes and rim are more interesting Rim is a tubular. Polished silver. Eyelets. 32 spokes. Closest thing I've found online is a Mavic monthlery, but it could be a brand that went away before my (90s onward) era...
