The wheels are now sorted - I stripped the axles as they didn't spin freely. The cones were pitted and the grease had gone hard. I've fitted new cones and bearings and also a couple of spokes. I jigged the wheels today and they now run smoothly and are true - lastly fitted new rim tapes. I've also cleaned and lubed the 6 sp screw on block - there appears to be very little wear to the block and chain, I think I must have replaced them shortly before I stopped racing
I used to fit Michelin Hi-lite road tyres 700x20 - what should I fit now - not many amber walls about and need something that will fit under the Deltas. I've seen some all black Vittoria's in 700x23 - any others??
Also need a new BB - the one I've taken out is showing signs of wear. Hollow axle 115mm with 68mm shell. I've found a sealed unit from the Centaur? Gpset on ebay for £14 ish with the same lengths etc Will my C record Chset fit this ok? I want something modern that I can fit and forget!
Handle bars have also been fitted
Any answers greatfully received - thanks in advance
