    For Sale Raleigh Banana

    FOR SALE . Raleigh Banana. Paul Sherwen version. Not the flash 531 model. 25" frame (remember, we bought a larger size in those days). I have been though most of it and it is fine to ride with the exception of the brake blocks which are past their best. Front tyre is original! Hmmm. Steel rims...

    Rivola frame

    I have aquired what looks to be a Rivola. There are about 2 sentences on the web about the brand and that's itt. Anyone come across one, know who imported them etc? Nicely made and light enough. Obviously fully chromed chainstays under a lovely metallic paint. A few Campag Record bit fiited ...

    Wanted Campag brake lever QR stud thingy

    The stud that pushes through on a Campag brake lever to open the calipers out. Just one. The thing down and right of the pivot and touching the grey bit of plastic in this pic. http://velobase.com/ViewComponent.aspx?ID=8ea13221-2746-461a-87f1-bb7fb3b3d28d&Enum=118&AbsPos=32

    Please move or delete if this is in the wrong place. I am taking some junk to a bike jumble tomorrow and have decied to take 2 wheels but I have no idea of value. 1. Sugino/Tioga disc drive. 700c 32 spoke holes. Unused Mavic rim and Shimano 600 cassette hub. Nearly perfect, a few storage marks...

    Two older disc wheels - questions.

    One at a time. a)Been given a Sugino Tension Disc wheel. Built on a Mavic MA 40 rim and Shimano FH6402 -Ultegra hub. 32 hole so I think that this makes it a later one. The rim is untouched as is the plastic skin. There is a bit on here about these wheels but not a lot. Did anyone use them on...

    Frame numbers

    Any clues as to where I might find a frame number (if there is one)? Not under the BB, paint removed and not any where near the seat tube cluster. Frame is a steel road bike. I reckon 1990's, with vertical rear drop outs, an inch head set, braze on front mech lug. Frame plus head set but no...

    Yet another identify this frame thread.

    Any bright ideas about this one? No number under BB. Removed to bare metal to check. Not original paint. Frame + steel headset cups weighs 1.8kg. 27.5 mm seat post. Tidy and light chromed forks. (No idea where the pic went.) Came with Shimano 105 groupset, the old vaguely champagne colour stuff...

    Calculating SS set up

    Decided not to clip this on to the SS/Fixed thread that's going as I'll end up with an answer to fry my brain. Is there a method/crib sheet that would allow me to work out what sprockets I need to SS a bike without trial and error? too lazy to keep swapping stuff and to tight to buy just to...

    Steel frame repair/bodgery

    Firstly, this is not going to a frame builder. That costs more than its worth. Got a Columbus Brain tubed frame that has a cracked down tube, just above the bottle boss. Currently used about 3 times a year as my hill climb bike with a extra long seat post firmly clamped at the top and a long...

    Downtube gear levers on TT bars bodgery

    Anyone, probably in the good old days, created a neat trick to fit down tube gear levers to TT type aero extensions? Just building yet another bike out of bits and bar end levers seem to go for silly money and I have piles of down tube levers. Could drill and put a bolt through the ends of...

    Dura-Ace 7402 rear mech question

    There is so much out there that conflicts other information that I thought I try the simple way. Can anyone confirm if a 7402 rear mech is of the era when its cable pull is different to a "normal" Shimano cable pull? I think it is but cannot be sure. Thinking of using it with more modern bar end...

    Remind me about the 80's

    My SBDU ? Raleigh is going back on the road.Back when it was sized for me I wanted long and low to suit me as a supple 20 year old TTer. 35 years later it is too long and low. Did we have available, in the mid 80's, inline seat pins? When did aero brake levers appear? Mine had exposed cables...

    Campag rear mech mounting/pivot bolt

    Allen type for late-ish GS mech. Not fussy really. I have a SR one that fits but then I can't use that mech!

    Campag mech hierachy

    Can anyone tell me where my Comp triple and Race triple mechs fit in the Campag hierarchy? Can't find my catalogues to check. Not old stuff, all are 9 speed unless I have missed something.

    Lo Pro frame sizing

    I fancy a change to my TT bike and am thinking of looking for something a bit older. The latest frame isn't going to affect my dismal 10 times but it may look nicer than my boring carbon one. Maybe, maybe not, a lo pro frame. No how on do you size such a thing? As its going to be a frame only...

    Campag Record Ti Ergos

    Are they 8 speed, 9 speed or did they appear as both during transition? Not in the position to count the clicks which would tell me. If 9 speed are they new or old 9 speed pull?
