I just use a little citrus based cleaner, seems to work OK. Ultimately though i think its impossible to keep it as white as the day you first put it on!

Now Sold.

Shimano 600 Ultegra Groupset. Late 80s early 90s 7 speed Shimano 600 Tricolor/Ultegra groupset, no cranks but includes period wheels with matching 600 hubs. Ill describe each component as best as I can. Please look at the photos as well to judge the condition for yourself...

If the rear hub matches the front (would be fh-6207) then it should be a 6 speed uniglide cassette (ie freehub). These usually require 2 chainwhips to remove. However, Sheldon Brown gives a neat trick for removing them without any special tools: About a quarter of the way down the page...

Without seeing the parts its difficult to tell, but i would hazard a guess that most of that is salvagable to one degree or another, chainrings dont look worn out from pics, nor does the cassette. Mostly it just needs a bloody good clean! To do this properly requires removing parts from...

Re: Awesome 753 Pro Nice to see someone with the same bike, do you still have the frame? It might be worth repairing? Thankfully mine seems mostly rust free. Ive got a Peugeot 653 with 7sp Ultegra that I might move across to this bike.

All parts now sold. Many thanks.

Post updated. Chainset, Seatpost and Cassette now sold. EDIT - pedals also now sold. Rest still available.

Looks good to me :). Must admit i agree with the stem, in terms of modern gear the things i like the least on road bikes are generally the stems and some of the chainsets (yours is fine) which often look bulky to my eyes.

This happened to me years ago. Rented pair of bolt croppers, problem solved. Weirdly no one batted an eye or stopped me as i wandered through Leicester with a parge pair of croppers and proceeded to chop through the other persons lock. Pointless involving the police.

Eh? So does 7 speed uniglide though, ie no lockring, the smallest cog screws on the outside of the freehub.

Quick thought, have you considered replacing your front small chainring with something smaller than the 42t that is likely there at the moment?

Sounds like its likely a uniglide freehub. Most 6 or 7 speed (i think the 7 should be ok)uniglide cassettes should work (if you can find one, they dont make them anymore), be careful with dura ace uniglide stuff as i think the splines on the freehub were different. If you have indexing...

The 8 speed tricolor should work no problems (the dura ace would require alternate calbe routing and would likely be a bit off even then). Firstly, it should have enough travel to cover the highest to lowest cog. Secondly, as the derailleur isnt where the indexing is (thats done by the...

Yeh, i didnt mention that as a possibly slightly harder option (or one a LBS is not likely to undertake for you). You'd also need 9 speed levers for indexing and probably a 9 speed narrow chain. But would be cool to do :D

If you have a rear wheel with a shimano cassette freehub then that freehub can be removed and changed for a 8 speed freehub. The wheel will likely require a slight re-dish afterwards. Obviously unless you are running it in friction mode you will need 8 sp shifters too As you are...

Bowser - unfortunately someone else already PM'd before you replied to the thread, and i promised them first refusal after Broady. Obviously if they dont want them you're next in line.

If you havent already bought them from ebay ive got a pair im not using (mounted once and ridden for no more than a couple of miles) as my project went a different way. Was going to list them soon as part of a huge clear out im going to have. £14 posted if you're interested. EDIT - btw...
