Shimano 1055 SC Gear Set & Brake levers now sold

[taylorsummers]

Hi,

I have a gear set comprising of Gear levers, Front and Rear mech. This is the 1055 model, think one of the last to be made before it moved to STI's. Velobase says 90-92.

Condition is pretty good, needs a good clean tho!!

Photo of the set below, more photos here

I also have a set of 105 aero brake levers, just a little older. Pics here http://photobucket.com/craigsbrakes

They could do with new hoods to be honest so if you buy the gear set I will throw these in.

So all in looking for about £35 posted. NOW £28
Cheers

What band size & pull is the front mech please?

 

[taylorsummers]

Evening,

Mmmm haven't got a clue to find that out how can I check??

Cheers

Band size will be printed on there, possibly on the band Almost certainly be 28.6mm. I should be able to tell the cable pull from the pic, think it's bottom (ie cable from under the BB pulling downwards). I could really do with a top pull, darn it! Not even sure they were ever made though to be honest! :roll:

Velobase says 28.6 clamp, max ring difference 14. Does this help??

Yeah, cheers! Afraid what I'm looking for never existed Hopefully I'll get chance to check through what I've got stashed tomorrow and get back to you ... although I think it should've sold by then really

Didn't think so, cheers O Oracle! So I can either run a 'verter thingy (which I have) or an XT tp (it's a 'cross bike) to reduce the mud catching potential...

Hmmm, decisions!

Odd though that the frame's a '92 with top pull routing :?

Didnt the old Alan's used to be along the top tube, they must have used a converter as well??

I vote that you use your converter and buy my items, haha.

I'm trying to remember - I used to race a (very sadlt missed) Alan crosser, but can't picture....

Ah yes, single ring, that's no help at all! :roll:
