Re: Campagnolo 8-speed hub for a 7-speed SIS Shimano. How t Or by reading the CTC Shimergo article if Campy 7 speed, Shimano 7 speed and Campy 8 speed are all 5mm spacing then you should be able to set your derailleur to operate on 7 of the 8 sprockets on the Campy cassette that comes with...

Re: Campagnolo 8-speed hub for a 7-speed SIS Shimano. How t Shimano and Campagnolo 7 speed spacing is the same and I have used a 7 speed Shimano HG cassette with Campagnolo 7 speed Syncro indexing very successfully all winter. If you can get a 7 speed Campy cassette and a spacer to fit onto...

The grey insert is as rare as rocking sh1t sadly. Only Croce d'Aune used the grey insert and not many people used Croce d'Aune! You may see the insert included for sale with the shifters and derailleurs as I had considered that for my bike, as mentioned keep an eye on Ebay and check worldwide...

Really nice, a great frame complemented by some quality bits. Some bikes just look fast, even when they're standing still! +1 for RBoTM! Martin

According to Wikipedia, which is never wrong, here's how 753T fits in - 753 - Heat-Treated Manganese-Molybdenum. The most exclusive tube set from Reynolds. Essentially 531 made with reduced wall thickness and heat treated to increase tensile strength. UTS: 1080-1280 MPa (70-83 Tsi, 157-186 ksi)...

Surely that would make it post July 1989 and pre July 1990 as Greg won his third TdF in 1990?

Dan supplied me with a BB for my Raleigh. Very efficient, good communication and speedy delivery. Martin

Re: Campag, Cinelli, Headsets, Skewers, Shifters etc Hi, can you tell me the axle length on the Athena BB please? Many thanks, Martin

A little pricey perhaps but might be worth making an offer? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131076002534? ... 1423.l2649

Good shout, thanks...just ordered some white PowerShift hoods and a white Powershift/Ultrashift cable set for my new build! Martin

I hope aluminium frames are worth having as I've invested quite a few £££s in a CYFAC Proxidium that I intend to build up in time for spring...I have a couple of steel framed Raleighs that i love to bits, but sometimes you ned to invite some modernity into your life!

Hi, I can't point you in the right direction for the tech specs you ask for but I do have two pairs of wheels made up with these hubs. Both are Mavic Open 4CD, 36 hole and have been in my possession since 1989. If I can do any measuring to help you if the proper technical info cannot be found...

The postcode system in the UK is such that there should never be any confusion between LL9 99GH or LL99 9GH. The second half of the postcode only ever has one number followed by two letters. If you wrote LL999GH with no spaces on your parcel it would end up at the correct place.

Re: SIDI Genius, vintage late eighties shoes, size 40 (UK7) Evryday's a school day! I stand corrected, these were advertised as SIDI Genius and knowing no different that's how I listed them here...I shall change the title of the thread. Cheers, Martin

Hiya, I bought these shoes a while ago on a bit of a whim as they are the type as worn by my hero Laurent Fignon in the 1989/1990 season. Sadly they are just a bit narrow for me and make my toes go to sleep after about 15 miles so I thought I'd offer them here first. These are fantastic - light...
