    Steel Forks

    I've bought a right bag o'sh1te here. Anyone know what size seatpost I should be looking for? I tried a 25.4 and it won't fit. The neck of the seat tube is waisted in at the top, it looks to be about 24mm but that can't be right, can it? Shirley? So. On top of needing a fork with a steerer...

    OK this frame is heeeyyyoooooge! The head tube is 200mm alone. My guess is I'm going to need at least 235mm - that's threaded. Sloping crown, 50mm brake drop, chromed, mudguard eyes. wotcha got? What does the panel think?

    Steel Forks

    If that's threaded that may be about right. Prolly best to wait for the frame to land. By the end of the week if I'm lucky. I'll get back to you . . .

    Sucker for a Hard Luck Story

    I've done it again! Saw me coming and I've bought a basket case . . . It's not really in good enough condition to build up without painting. The cranks were fubarred, the fork crown and head are rusty and if the Exage brakes can be resurrected it will be a bloody miracle...

    A Nice Pair

    Mid 90s, 95 or 6, I think. Does anyone have a guide to frame numbers and how to decode them? I could find out exactly, then. I believe they were bought as a pair originally as I got them from the original owner. The red one was a frameset whereas the blue was frame only, the original fork...
