There are tails of dyna-tec frames failing at the joints but i doubt there are many caught on camera.

Hi I have a set of Sachs Aris new success shifters that came off a bike with brazed on bosses, I would like to fit them to a bike without bosses so need a clamp on mount. Could I strip a set of cheap shimano d/t shifters for the clamp? I have seen the modern cnc aluminium ones but feel it would...

Hi I am thinking up my next project and have settled on a Raleigh with a 531 frame from the 80's. My google-fu has let me down and cant find catalogues but if I remember correctly there was the Avanti, Ozark and Maverick, essentially the same frame just different paint and components
