Any interest? This will be going on ebay this weekend otherwise. Cheers!

Sold

Alien is sold, woodman is still available!

"A frame built by pro's who know their stuff, from superior materials that work, any frame is a good frame" Yeah, this is the bottom line, well said! However, carbon doesn't have to be expensive... very decent secondhand frames (from a loving home) can be had for not much more than a...

Lazarus, interesting comments and an interesting bike history! Actually, I'm struck by the fact that not many people here have ridden carbon frames. Yes, I know it's the retrobike forum and all, but retro and new can cohabit the garage quite happily! I mention this because a good carbon frame...

Sure - I'm away from home till tomorrow, I'll post something up tomorrow evening.

Happy to drop the price to sell these - £220 as they are, £250 with a rebuild. Cheers!

The Woodman is provisionally sold, the Alien is still for sale - price drop to £50 posted!

I've never heard that! I've used Mastik with Vittorias, Contis, Challenge tubs, all fine... just use Mastik and be happy ;-)

stig, Practically, a good steel builder will likely be able to deliver exactly what you want. Custom is custom! However, it may be that an OTP alu or ti frame might also deliver that, but it's highly dependent on the frame design (i.e. not the material!). Finding a good OTP bike is then a...

stig, People get hung up on materials. The reality is that different materials simply permit different trade-offs in the frame's design (key trade-offs are weight, handling, comfort). What has changed is that in 20-30years, technology and design/testing expertise has moved on. So, what you...

I also have 2 8sp campag cassettes that I can do a deal on with the wheels - Record 12-25 and Veloce 13-26. I'm not looking to sell these separately for now. Open to offers for the wheels.

I've got a very rare and extremely nice set of Campagnolo Chorus (I believe, though they might be record) 8speed hubs built up on Mavic Open SUP rims. Rare, because the rear hub has a 135mm axle! 32h front, 36h rear. With original campy skewers The hubs are in super condition. They date from...

Gorgeous vintage Gazelle Champion Mondial A Frame and forks in Reynolds 531 steel in a lovely gold colour. I bought this on here a couple of years ago, and now it's time to move on (I also need the space in my cellar!). I'm told this dates from the early 80s. The A Frame models had bosses for...

Hi, I've got two 25.0mm seatposts for sale, suitable for classic Look/Alan/Vitus frames, among others. 25.0mm posts are very hard to find now! 1. USE Alien carbon 350mm long. Excellent+ condition, very slight rubbing from a saddlebag on the logo a the top of the post, otherwise this is...

Hello! I'm converting my late 90s Concorde from a double to a triple, in order to take it to the alps later this summer for some classic Alpine pass action! All of the bits are of 1997 vintage, I believe and include: Veloce pointy-top ergo levers, Veloce front mech Veloce short-cage rear...

Yup, it sold. Sorry!

Definitely interested if this hasn't already sold?

PS The big difference isn't so much the dead weight per se, it's the extra snap you get off a lighter frame with a stiff rear triangle which makes accelerations easier.

My regular ride 2005-2007 was a Look 251, a very similar frame. Lovely ride in many ways, very smooth but it was distinctly flexy in the front end - I had very low confidence on it going fast downhill and cornering - and I ended up selling it for that reason. Actually, the later Looks of...
