    Weight/stiffness of new steel bike

    I've had 2 steel bikes. The last one (which I still have), I raced for 20 years. I was very happy with that bike until I bought a Litespeed Vortex. Then an Archon. It's mostly the geometry and weight. On stiffness, I am not sure. The frames are so different it's hard to judge. As much as I like...

    Broken Litespeed Archon

    I have a 2010 Litespeed Archon. I rode it for more than 50.000km plus rollers in the winter. Then the frame broke where the der.hanger is bolted on. There is also a crack where the chainstay is welded to the BB-shell. No point is sending it in for warranty, we all know how that will go. But I...

    Klein Mardigras Attitude

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/203105437707?ul_noapp=true Someone is probably interested in this. Too little white in the paint for me. And it's not an Adroit :mrgreen:

    WTB: Dura Ace 7410 Left crank arm 172.5mm

    No cracks. I have a few and they are prone to cracking (after extended use). Might be interested in a complete crankset if it comes with near unused original 53/39 rings.

    Rims for rim brakes (26").

    Since disc brakes have taken over the world of MTBs it has become more and more difficult to find good quality rims for our vintage bikes. Mavic seems to only have the non-eyeleted XM117 now. The last proper rims I bought were Mavic XC717. Does anyone make a proper eyeleted rim these days (26"...

    Adroit Mardi Gras

    I've had a specific search on ebay for close to 10 years with email to me, but nothing interesting has ever showed up. Until friday: http://www.ebay.com/itm/152278894210?_t ... EBIDX%3AIT Since the price is getting way out of hand I thought I'd post it here before it is too late. I could buy...

    Klein mardi gras

    Did they really sell the Attitude with mardi gras paint in 1999 ? I see they didn't after reading more. Those pedals and reflectors :roll: If one gets rid of all the crap and wrong parts and starts from a bare frame it might become a nice bike, but for the collector I'd say you pay only for...

    Ideas on how to get rid of the brifters ?

    This isn't a very retro question, other than the fact that I really like my downtube shifters. And here is the problem: The new frame I bought doesn't have downtube shifter mounts. "Why did you buy it then ?" I hear you asking. Sadly I had never ridden with combined brakelevers and shifters...

    Chain cleaners - Park tool vs Finishline

    This is not specific to retro-bikes but interesting non the less. I have had a Park tool chain cleaner for about 2 years. Similar to this: http://www.parktool.com/product/cyclone ... ubber-CM-5 This summer the plastic on the end where the latch is broke. Abuse or too much exposure to diesel...

    Warning for seller of Vittoria Open Corsa SC tyres on ebay.

    Since these tires are pretty retro I thought I'd mention it here that you should stay away from the seller named 'velocipedecyclery'. I paid for 14 tires from him and it took him 5 weeks to pretend to send the tyres. When I said I wanted my money back, he said he had already shipped the tyres...

    Dura Ace Di2 shifters with BL-7402 brake levers possible ?

    I really dislike the new-shape combined shifters/brake levers and my new frame doesn't have down tube shifter bosses. So I am wondering if I can use the satelite shifter buttons without the brake/shift levers ? That way I would have nicely shaped brake levers and 10-speed shifting. I...

    How do I overhaul a Hugi compact rear hub ?

    I have a Hugi compact rear hub that is very noisy, which I would like to overhaul. The problem is that I can't get the freehub body off the hub. According to all the manuals I have read it should be possible to just pull it off by hand, but I am not able to do this. Not with the cassette...
