    Wanted: Campag Super Record 27.0mm seat post

    Does anyone have a spare 1980s or possibly 90s Campag 27.0mm seat post they don't need? It's the last part of my jigsaw to get my Chris Marshall back on the road. Ideally Super Record, would look at other options too if you have something- I'd love to ride it again! Thanks in advance :)

    1" Ahead style stem, preferably flat or low rise, 130-140mm

    I'm looking for a stem to fit my Bontrager- the front end is a little too high so I'm trying to lower the bars a little. I've got a Syncros stem at the moment which I'd be happy to swap for something as good- between 130 and 140mm, and preferable zero degrees or a small rise, but a good quality...

    Jamis owners- help please!

    So finally getting around to putting together a Dakar frame I bought from here a year or so ago :oops: I've mislaid the seat post, and none of the posts I have as spare fit. It looks like its 26.6, can anyone confirm this before I start looking for one? Frame is 1998 or thereabouts, tange...

    Bespoked Bike Show in Bristol this weekend- anyone else go?

    OK, it's not retro, but it's interesting- custom frame builders and other delights, especially for the fixed wheel crew, at the Paintworks in Bristol this weekend. I went and had a nosey around- there's lots of very knowledgeable people there, and some gorgeous bikes with a very retro feel and...

    What a Great Day :-)

    Finished building my new road bike today- or at least got it so I can ride it, pending some final components. Here it is: I got the frame a couple of months ago- it's a 653 refurbished by Chris Marshall, but I'm not sure it's one of theirs originally. It's got wonderful chromed Nervex lugs...

    SWAP My Campag 27.2 seatpost for a 27.0

    As part of a groupset I've bought recently I've a fluted Campag seatpost (Record, Super Record?) which is so tight in my frame that I think I probably need a 27.0 version. Does anyone have a mid 80s or thereabouts Campag seatpost in 27.0 they'd swap, or sell? :D

    WTD/Swap: Syncros 1" ahead zero rise stem

    I've a black Syncros 1" ahead stem on my Bonty, which coupled with long travel SIDS is just too high. Does anyone have a zero rise version they'd be interested in swapping or selling? My stem's in pretty good condition, but I can take photos if anyone's interested. Cheers, Ben

    Does this exist?

    I've a 1" ahead Syncros stem, which is just too high, so I'm wondering if they ever produced a zero rise version. Can anyone confirm if such a thing exists? If so I'll go searching for one!

    WTD: Campag BB

    I've just got hold of a mid 80s Super Record groupset, but it's come with an Italian BB. I'm looking for ideally just a set of Campag cups for an English thread (assuming they'll fit with an Italian axle?) or a complete good condition Campag BB. I don't have measurements to hand, but can check...

    WTD: Campag bits for a project, plus other stuff

    I've got a lovely frame to build, a 653 with chrome nervex lugs, dating (I believe) from the mid 80s. I've got most of a Super Record groupset to go with it, but need a set of wheels. Does anyone have a set of wheels with Super Record or Record hubs, dating from the 80s, in good condition? At a...
