    Wanted Odyssey Svelt seat post q/r ideally silver (or something v similar).

    Bump bump bump - I’m quite desperate tbh

    Apologies for the lack of progress, have a few issues holding it back for a bit. Unrelated to that I've put a note in the wanted section, but if any of you interested folk have an idea I'd be grateful. Basically as I’ve switched the seat clamp around it’s now just a bit to close to my thigh...

    Wanted Odyssey Svelt seat post q/r ideally silver (or something v similar).

    Thanks but that’s about the same as the Ringle. A pic would’ve been better so here we go. I need something that’s narrow across the frame on both sides. Maybe an Allen key binder would be better tbh.

    27.2. It’s a brazed on jobbie though so I don’t need a collar.

    Wanted Odyssey Svelt seat post q/r ideally silver (or something v similar).

    I currently have a Ringle quick release for my seat post as I now have a front facing seat clamp my thigh brushes it as I pedal, so I’m either going to have to get a Allen key style binder bolt(bit of a shame, or find something much slimmer than the rather bulky Ringle. Open to suggestions, as...

    Wanted XT fd-m736 or Campy top pull 29.5 I think

    Thanks for that. It’s a Max OR frame, just had a new seat tube put in. Turns out the issue is with the tube and not the clamp!

    Wanted XT fd-m736 or Campy top pull 29.5 I think

    Thanks. 28.6 is defo too small, as I just bought one off here and it doesn’t fit in at all, unless it’s small than was advertised. FWIW the replacement seat tube is 27.2 internal. measuring circumference and working out diameter from that I get about 29.5, so I guess it’s a 31.8 I need. Can’t...

    Wanted XT fd-m736 or Campy top pull 29.5 I think

    After getting some wrong info I now need a front mech for my build with a larger band. I don’t know the sizes these came in but need something close 29.5 I think. Must be nice condition and too pull. Thanks, D.

    Ahh ok. They seem to work in near darkness so it’ll never be perfect. I could highlight a couple of points but as you say, good enough. Headset in today, I’ve gone Euclid as it’s very attractive and will go with the cranks(and had only been fitted 6 months or so before I had the work done...

    A bit of summer sparkle for you.. Very pleased with how the paint came out, very pleased with the badging, just need to start building the old girl back up again.

    Roberts Phantom, the rebuild thread.

    Replaced it. Actually they open the frame where the seat clamp is and take that out at the same time. It was only then I decided to replace the BB shell too as the threads were rubbed away. I could've gone without the sleeve - which gives you that little pointy down lug on the front of the...

    Roberts Phantom, the rebuild thread.

    Oh it's nothing interesting, just my indecision. Was going to go for Seca Blue (to match my car) sad eh, but decided that would be a bit too modern and doesn't work with any fades so ended back with how I originally painted it, just losing the purple. I was worried that I couldn't get a good...
