Welcome to the Chaos that is Retro Bike... May I suggest you start making space in your shed/garage/ flat/ wardrobe for the impending retro bike infestation that happens when you've been on here for a few weeks. :lol:

As long as you can post can I have the following please, P.M. on the way Shimano 600 Arab gear levers.£5.00. Carlton Weinmann brake levers.£7.50.

How about "I've bought the bikes to save on petrol so I can save up for a surprise for you" :roll:

@DY85262 Thanks for the encouragement I'm really enjoying the journey back into cycling and the rewards are already far greater than the effort you have to put in. :D I've just build a single speed with a 42-18 as wel,l a few of the better cyclists over here have mentioned that i'm better...

@SIMONFREESE Thanks :oops: The Gaspipe special has a lot to answer for, its that bike that fueled my renewed racer addiction I'm thinking of converting it to a single speed as my other two bikes now provide the training and Racing roles....

The reasoning behind is is that i'm trying to run a mountain bike cassette with a 39-28 gearing for the climbs. So far the Shimano FH 7403 looks best as it will run both external or Internal cassette lock nuts giving me a bigger choice of gearing options. the only snag there is that they are...

Wow Bargain, shame their 126mm I was considering 130mm though as I've tweaked my frame from 126 to 130

The polished TB14's were what I was after as there as near to a MA2 as I've seen. I'm also looking into Retro 130mm Shimano rear hubs for a 6 or 7 speed cassette to go into the wheel build.. I've tweaked my frame to fit 130 and the cassette's make changing ratio's a lot easier. I've...

Thank's for coming back to me on that, I liked the look of them when I saw them. I'll drop you a PM tonight.
