With ref to forks I have checked them and they seem to have been bent that way as there are no cracks of any kind and they are the same on each side also the frame seems straight. Which seems strange if it had been in a crash. I do know a bike shop in crosby that have a way of checking your...

Been having a look for any numbers on the bike but all I could find was the letter L on the under side of the bottom bracket. I have downloaded some more pictures for you to look at. I have removed some tape from the handlebars and noted that it has BTTT on the bars and stem and Miche on the...

Will give it a good clean and see if I can find any writing on the forks. John

Do you think so I would of thought if that was the case it would show up on the chrome. I have had a good look and I can't see any bending of the frame or stretching or cracking of the forks. Thanks for the info.

I have taken a photo of the forks and will put it on. I noticed that as well and must admit i have not come across any forks the same shape. John

I have posted some more pictures. I have noticed the shape of the front fork and everything on the bike seems to be Miche or campagnolo. John

Hi Everyone, I have another bike for you to look at. A friend was given this bike a couple of years ago and his intention was to do it up and ride it. The problem was he does not know how to set it up or how to fix any problems that the bike may have. So it sat in his garage for the next few...

Tread by BB The tread by the BB seems to have no use as when you put the crank on over it you can't seem to get any access to it. John

I see your point about the rear derailleur but the first set in the first 2 photos are on the opposite side of the rear deraileur so they can't be for that. yours John

Hi All, I am trying to find out what these fittings are for on my Triumph Cyclone. One set is situated by the back wheel and the other is a thread which is close to the bottom bracket . I would like to know what they are used for as I have not seen these on any of my other bikes.

shiftets If this bike has double brazed on shifters whch have been hacked off is it common to have two for the age of the bike seeing that it has been suggested that it has a grease nipple it maybe from the 1950/60s.

friction shifters With ref to shifters l think that they were brazed on shifters that had been file off. is it easy to get them put back on as I have also noticed that the bottom bracket looks likeit had a brazed cable guide which has also been hacked off fo some reason.

new photos of bike Hi, Here are some more photos of the bike

Ref to Bike I have looked all over the bike and as far as I can tell the only frame no I can find is 059 or Q59 which is under the bottom bracket. I have also had a look at where the suntour levers are situated and they are too high compared to all my other racers, but where they should be...

Hi All, I was hoping for some info on a bike I have in the loft gathering dust and it seems a shame to leave there without getting to know what it is. I have pictures of it which I am about to download ASAP. the thing is I bought it off ebay about a year ago stating that it was a R J Quinn...
