Hi What diameter is the steerer on these? Thanks Will

I've had a pleasant morning sticking on Gil's rather splendid transfers to my 95 C16r frame In the end I went for Orange Charcoal Grey... not exactly retro but a colour I quite like it and catches the light nicely. I wasn't sure if the silver decals would be lost but they look quite smart...

Im happy to report back but the frame has only just gone off so will be a few months before I get it back due to current times. I've gone for gloss black which was the original colour... in fact very similar to the one above! Mine isn't going to be that retro a build though as most components...

I've got a 95 c16r and bought a 29.8mm shim. I haven't yet fitted it as the frame is off for restoration but I got the info from a 97 catalogue so hopefully they didn't change much!

Looking very nice!

I'm not sure if it helps but my Prestige has a 1" ahead chris king headset fitted. I didn't fit it myself though. Cheers Will

A great thread! So great that its inspired me to launch my own project C16r.... It's a little worse for wear so needs a bit of TLC. Cheers Will

Re: Re: Thanks! It's a bit smaller but I'm not sure of the size. I think 18 or 19... tbh I never asked as it just felt right.

Thanks! The headset is fine and could feel in the forks gently wiggling them with the wheel off. I'm kinda hoping that if I put it back together when some new seals arrive that all will be OK...

Hi All - I'm new to the forum and have spent a very enjoyable time reading this thread :D Thought I'd add my Orange Prestiege which i took out for a spin yesterday; One thing I noticed was a bit of play under braking in the RC36 forks so it's curently being stripped with an attempt to try...

Cool. Please can you PM me... as a newbie I dont seem to be able to start a PM Cheers Will

Hi I'm a new user so don't think I can create a new PM yet. If the V brake set is still available I'm definitely interested Cheers Will
