Back up. With a small downside. A small depression has come about, not sure how. Only a poor pic at the moment but it's in the middle of the top tube. About 2mm deep and the length of half a fingernail as you can see in the pic. Price adjusted to £300 to take this into consideration. I'd never...

Provisionally sold

cant believe I'm doing this, but I am putting up for sale my perthus pro. sadly it just doesnt get used anymore and really I need the space its taking up (just wish I had more space :( ) so, the bike itself, 87/88 perthus pro 56cm i think but will double check Reynolds 753r tubing (the lightest...

thanks very much, excellent information, gives me something to go on. next thing is to find out how much they are worth... gorgeous 'nago you have, do you have a thread of the repaint and upgrades?

Hi guys. Been working at a customers this week building an en suite, and whilst running some pipe work and cables in one of the loft spaces I stumbled across this old colnago gathering dust. Chatted to the owner briefly who says its for sale but cant remember what model it is. He bought it new...

Re: New Project 1988 Peugeot Triathlon Wow, thats a real nice looking resto, shame about the paint reacting. same thing happened to me doing my somec. do have a soft spot for old pugs though, still have a perthus pro and did a recommission of this 'premiere' few years back, all original in...

hi all, im selling my Somec to fund another project, its been recently rebuilt, by myself. it is an old road frame rather than a proper track one, but it still works ok for it. spec is: Somec 56cm frame (unsure of model) columbus slx tubing circa 1980-1985 cinelli 1a stem and giro d'italia...

Likewise, get a resto thread up, have a soft spot for these... The one in the picture is mine :) Stu

as the title suggests, after some rear dropout adjuster screws. can only seem to find these in america, unless im not looking in the right place. Theyre to fit campagnolo dropouts, but i shouldnt think that there is any difference, would like to have the screws, springs and caps cheers Stu

I presume the stange bit is that they mount from a single point in the middle as opposed to v-brake mounts? I should imagine theyre for old bmx's with U-brakes, off the top of my head

Wahoo thankyou one eyedjim, that's just brilliant Now all we have to do is find out what model it is and get some new stickers for it :) Stu

that reply is what is traditionally know as a joke. more than likely said as on a forum full of bike nerds he only got 2 replies. as for british roadies, i have to agree, ive gone back to mountain biking again as the "scene" is much more friendly. ive given up saying hello to other groups of...

my friend recently dug out an old bike frame from his dads garden, his dad was convinced that its a colnago, but I'm not so sure, its had a respray at some point and has no badge or decals, so ive taken a few pics of things that might give it away: head tube, notice the small line in the lugs...

ha, that'll teach me not to look before i post :roll:

i know that this question is usually a mine field, but i'm not clued up enough on such matters to be of any use. Basically, im getting my bike insured and they want to know how much its worth, i said i'd get back to them as i didnt know. so the bike in question is my Peugeot Perthus Pro, its...

damn damn and blast, i was up your way last week!!!!

this has always eluded me as to how a saddle should be set up properly so its comfy. how far forward or back on the post should it be, what angle, where abouts should your arse actually sit on the thing?? Ive just got a brooks saddle so want to make sure i break it in in the right position so...

Normally I always have lights on my bike, Id just taken them off to use on my mtb, and hadn't anticipated it being so late on my way home, 2 of the guys did have rear lights on them which they'd turned on (they were about 40/50 yards behind though) but it wasnt that dark though as the...

at the weekend i went out for a ride with a few friends, were all keen cyclists, and have been into mountain biking and bmx long before we got into road bikes. however as weve all grown up weve seen the sense in roadies as you can eat some serious miles on them for very little effort compared to...

i won one of these on ebay over the weekend as everyone has been going on about how comfy brooks are, its a champion narrow from 1988 so fits in with the age of the bike perfectly!!
