Please advise if these are sold or are still available, thanks

Cycling history in real steel. Retro bikes are addictive and leads innocents into bad ways. I only started proper road cycling just 4 years ago, and have covered 10,000 miles, climbed 250,000 feet, burnt off 230,000 calories, participated in PruRide London, Meon Vale 100k, Eroica California...

I had heard about the thin paint issue but can only report that whilst the paint does seem delicate it has been Ok on my 1997 Titanio Art Deco. I have put on clear protective film to the outside surfaces of the main frame, and it has seen a season of commuting (25 miles each inc winter) without...

Re: Excellent and helpful response, thanks. After a bit of practice and understanding the tips posted I managed to get 3 tyres fitted, the last without using levers. Then serviced 2 Campy monoblocks and front wheel axle. Blimey. It was like old times when I rummaged through my old tool...
