Hi all, I’m after a Weinmann Carrera front brake or just the centre bolt if anyone has one

Hi, found some long lost Weinmann Carrera 400 brake callipers but front brake centre bolt snapped long ago. Anyone happen to have such a thing or a tatty Carrera front brake they want to sell? Has to be Allen key fitting Thanks

Hi I’ve long since mislaid a Campagnolo brake shoe including wheel guide for 80s Record/Super Record brakes. Anyone got an odd one in the spares boxes that they would be willing to sell?

Heck, thought is was going to be about 10 grand!

Hi, just wondering if there are any shops that carry Benotto tape or similar, I'm in need of some white tape, seen some expensive stuff on ebay. :?

Thanks, I'll get back to you, as found that I can't get the Look cleat off one of the shoes after all these years, so I may have to give up on putting period specific pedals on rebuild

Hi, anyone have any old style, pre clipless shoe cleats, to use with a campag style pedal and toeclips. I have Sidi shoes with plastic sole, rather than so no nail in cleats thanks!

I had quite a few back in the 80s, ranging from Campag super record, Suntour Superb Pro, Weinman 405s, and Shimano Dura Ace 7400. The Dura Ace worked the best.

Great looking bike, my mate bought one of those frames, turned out it was too heavy for his liking so flogged it and ordered up a 753 from Raleigh

It's the TI for me

As mentioned Tange Levin headsets are low stack heights, also a 105 headset was pretty low as well, but not as low as the tange I don't think

bit worrying as they claim to deal in bikes.

The seller has said (on another forum) that he has a number of SBDU frames and doesn't need to sell, but would swap for the groupsets mentioned in his advert, or if anyone wanted to give him the dosh, then fine. Fair play to him, might push the price of all our retro bikes up!

Sorry, I missed the bit where you said you had the tool. I'll look at mine in the morning, what size gap do you have to play with?

bump :D

Don't you need to get the splined tool for removing a splined freewheel. I've got one, it's like what you said, the one for a cassette, but the freewheel one is much longer. I got one from my LBS

PM sent re the bars and stem

I've had very similar working, however on one that I've got working at the moment the cage runs very close the to teeth plus chain when in 2nd gear on a 12-28 cassette.

Thanks for the advice, my shim is wider than the clamping area, although the edges are pretty smooth, I've just used black tape over the edges at the moment, but might make a narrower shim and smooth the edges as best I can for such a thin material.

Hi all, recently bought a pair of handlebars that were meant to measure 26.0 for a 3ttt quill stem. The stem just floated over the raised central section of the bars. I don't have a guage so don't which one is incorrect, but suspect it's the bars as I removed the stem from some old 3ttt Moscow...
