If an old fella wanted something to keep him occupied in his dotage, and enjoyed researching 60's and 70's Italian local cycle club vintage cycling Jerseys........not collectable professional stuff. Then he thought, I now have too many, the wife is getting a little tetchy, maybe I should sell...

Just finished the build on my 96 Marin Nail FRS. Everything back to spec bar the headset, pedals, tyres and saddle. When they come up, I'll swop them. Pretty pleased with how it came out

I've seen a few old jerseys that have the initial G.C. on them along with the name of a club. Anyone explain what G.C. stands for ?

These Marin Lite brakes came in a packet. I can get most of how they work, but what has got me baffled are the plastic apparent adjusters and return / tensioner springs. The plastic adjusters have writing on of which the only decipherable part says normal. Does anyone have a set of these on...

I know the diameter is correct but I cannot find any information as to which steerer length is correct. Is 7.5 a long steerer for this bike ( see below ) If it's too long can it...

The gripshift model

Embarking on that road of collecting parts after being tempted into buying this piece of geometric beauty. So far I have a seatpost, bars, stem, NOS gripshift 600 and a rear wheel. The frame arrives later this week so probably best if I wait until it's here before I go any further.....just in case.

Hi all, I'm in Epsom, Surrey. Anyone close with a front Mavic 238 with STX-RC hub from the 1995/6 vintage in good condition? Or far away who will ship?

As a newbie to the world of building a Retrobike, to return to stock the bike I am rebuilding would need Mavic 238 rims with STX RC hubs. So unless by some miracle I find a set of NOS wheels, Obviously I will need to buy some used rims, which in the main I assume can be refurbished if I remove...
