Re: Hey! Does it have chainrings? Edit just saw about the bio space rings. Thanks!

Finding my current triple Stx RC crankset of 42/32/22 a bit spinny. Looking for a 90s shimano triple crankset (ie 6/7/8 speed) with 28/38/48 or 26/36/46 or similar to replace it with. Doesn't seem to be much available to buy on ebay. Let me know if you have anything!

Re: Mercian Hello, Whats the size (seat tube (c-t)) and where located?

Re: .

If you want to sell the brakes, brake levers and hood please PM me as I am looking to buy some. Are the brakes you have too short or too long?

I should clarify too small for me not the picture is too small! This would fly off LFGSS.

Shame this is too small

Re: Reynolds 853 Road Frame + Reynolds 531 British classic T pm'd

Tried an M5 and it was a tiny bit small, so maybe an M6 might be the one.

Lovely, the help is much appreciated!

Hello retrobikers, Does anyone know what type of binder bolt would sit the bike pictured, would be a sunk allen key bolt (I presume), is there a common size? And can anyone point me to the right place? Modern is fine Freddie

Re: Brazing - Saving a frame from the scrap yard I do but unfortunately it's very bent.

Re: Brazing - Saving a frame from the scrap yard It's not pretty. How does welding compare to brazing? I would imagine it's a more common skill?

Does anyone out there in London/Kent have an interest in bringing a frame back from the dead? And the skills/equipment to braze? I have a poor Claud Bulter frame with a broken dropout, can't bring myself to throw it away. Not looking for a professional job, the frame is worth less than the fix...

Great build! Any progress?
