    25crmo4 is the equivalent of Dedacciai Tre Tubi even though the Deda DR Zero and DR Zero Uno use 25crmo4 as their base material but with improvement. Oria was an important tube manufacturer in the 80's-90's but later disappeared. The tubing might be equivalent to the Zona Columbus tubing. Also...

    1997 Specialized Allez Comp M2

    These were made in the USA. They were mostly criterium bike frames. M2 aluminium mountain bike frames were prone to breakage, don't know if it was case of the road frames.With Dura Ace 7800 and Zipp 404 wheels , the bike might be lighter

    Peugeot 708

    I have one but in the Prestige Variant, my original race bike from 1992 that I used in roadbike racing competitions from 1996-1999 before I had a very bad accident in 1999 which broke the original fork . From 1999 to 2005, I have avoided to ride on a road bike due to that accident. But in 2005 I...

    Another Principia purchase at a killer price

    Good Morning The german seller who sold me my Gary Fisher Hookoo Ekoo and my Giant Bronco, had a very nice dual color Principia frame from the mid 1990's in aqua green and dark green in great condition which was for sale at an absolute killer price. I bought and this one is older than the...

    What Happened to Campagnolo?

    Not to mention problem of chain usage and with some brands bad cranksets glued instead of forged. I have tested dura ace 9000, 9100 and 9200 as well as Campy Record 11speeds and 12 speeds and wasn't convinced that it was a better choice than dura ace 7800 with 10 speeds.

    What Happened to Campagnolo?

    for aesthetics it is fine, but if you want looks and performance, Dura Ace 7800 bests it out

    What Happened to Campagnolo?

    The campy brakes whether chorus and record deltas or monoplaners were very mediocre for stopping a bike at high speeds especially , things got better with their first generation of dual pivot brakes but it was very far from the BR 7410 Dual Pivot rim brakes's performance which supplied...

    What Happened to Campagnolo?

    Campagnolo has been overhyped especially with their new carbon cranks but it began to make poor quality components after 2005 and their ultra torque system made things way worse. They are outrageously expensive for mediocre quality components nowadays and no pro team has won anything with them...

    Another rarity comes to my stable, NOS Tange Prestige frameset from the mid late 90's

    Not on the bottom bracket but on the left side of the bottom of the seat tube the serial number is engraved 896070001, looks like a custom made production

    Another rarity comes to my stable, NOS Tange Prestige frameset from the mid late 90's

    Yes but it was sold to me separately by the same seller who told me that it was indeed of prestige tubing due to the weight of the frame 1kilos890 and is reasily recognizable due to the Tange lugs and Tange rear drop outs
