friend bought a track frame as part of a mad mixed bag of fixed gear bits. now its a bit of a strange one? theres two cable guides under the top tube and a derailleur cable guide too, but with track ends/drop outs (sorry sheldon) nervex lugs like this...

Got this today following a bit of swapping. another n.irish frame builder, the forks are lovely, almost like old track forks. will get better pics later. just has summer bike written all over it, love the mad bianchi celeste :)

seen these for sale, thinking of putting them on a 50's frame I have, could I put a fixed cog on these? or would it have to be geared?

just seen this for sale, its a local cycle shops name on the frame but I think it must be made by someone else as there was no frame builders in NI at that point. anyone any ideas?? apparently, It was built in manchester?? I heard them say paul dean and harry hall in background?? but got a...

I need a shimano 600ex crank cap. http://lh4.ggpht.com/_z-Vwoa7vdkI/TK...0600%20002.jpg off a crank like this... pm me.

Picked this up earlier, filthy covered in rust and generally unloved, had been in someones loft for years. Got home at 8pm, by 10pm..lol Reynolds 501 but really light, malliard pedals and quick release hubs and mavic rims. mmmm frenchy goodness.

right may as well get a thread started lol http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=131314 heres the beginnings of the build. plan so far is selling a few things and then using cash for bob jackson respray. debating what build style still at the minute to go for.

right, bought what I thought was a 700c wheel from my LBS. second hand one, that had come off a dutch hybrid. it says, 22 x 635 = 28 x 1 1/2. correct me if im wrong but doesent that make it 13mm bigger than a 700c? (622mm)? just checking before I go in and find out wtf the crack is....

Looking at seeing about picking up this frame. Hillsborough is a few miles up the road from my gf's house. The frame dates from the 50's, the gordons were prob the most famous of NI frame builders for road racing. It's going to need resprayed sadly, The plan for this bike is to build a nice...

http://belfast.gumtree.com/belfast/36/71233636.html anyone tell me anything about this? ergo shifters? whats the groupset?

anyone know where you can source a french bottom bracket for reasonable money at the minute, for my novy build? cant see any velo orange ones on freshtripe and phil woods seem a bit spendy. Trying to avoid a threadless BB. Measured shell width for novy - 73mm and cottered spindle length...

salvaged, seapost, brakes, rear wheel and chainstay http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewto ... 53&start=0 Heres the thread that started the build. It's a belgian Novy mixte bought from a local bike workshop on christmas eve for my girlfriend after a raleigh wisp I bought her turned out...

looks a bit funny.

Bought this yesterday for my GF. Raleigh Wisp Mixte, it's so clean you could eat your dinner off it. Too bloody big for her though! So had to stick it on gumtree today! grrr. anyway heres a few pictures for you all to enjoy.

Was round in my local bike workshop today and they had a rather sad looking Novy fixed gear mixte hanging up. It looks decent quality, anyone know anything about them? czech?

http://belfast.gumtree.com/belfast/39/70228439.html anyone know what model viking this is, seems pretty distinctive. It looks like a 5 speed, with a single sr crank, im think just swap back wheel and hey presto, fixed gear. I'd rather start with decent frame than gas pipe though.

anyone have any? I'd look at some other double metal gear levers (must be clamp on), the plastic simplex ones are just horrible on a 50's bike lol need to be bargainous also lol.

http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewto ... 67&start=0 Heres the start of the project, I'll continue the build here :)
