hubs This is an alu bonded frame and its maybe best not to. I've done a couple of hubs for guys wanting to run 10sp in 126mm frames and there are plenty available that you can do a DIY fix on the non-drive side allowing enough dish to give a decent enough strength in the wheel. American...

rossin ..or, get a new front rim. That one is showing signs of brake wear, and yet - no brake???

pug Result! Thats looking great. Forget the fixie idea - get an old banger if you want to do that. I would go for some NOS Benotto handlebar tape, a decent seatpin and a classic saddle that suits you and you've got a cracker there. :D

Colnago Not sure if this is retro yet, although given the price that 1st edition Campag Record 10sp stuff is going for I expect it is. Its a Master X Light with 2000 Record group and special edition Mavic SSC ceramic clincher rims from 1999. The stem is a Cinelli XA, seatpost Record alloy and...

tubs Well, I've seen 20" and 24" at the suppliers - Vittoria juniors and Conti Olympic 24" but no 22" in either tub or tyre. Not even inner-tubes that size! What kind of bike is it? Will it take 24" wheels?

Levers The downtube levers are defo Victory. I remember saving up for a pair. Still got them loose in a tub somewhere.

tubs I had a pair of these Schwalbes that were still rideable after 10 years of monthly runs. The cotton starts to unravel but the tread was still true and intact. Enjoy.

Holdworth Did I just completely miss that bit? What an eedjit. Anyway - very nice. Thanks for reiterating for the blind.

Holdsworth Very nice. What rims and tyres are you using there?

fork I got that one off feebay after putting in an offer. It was expensive but still strange how theres not many folk after them seeing that they no longer do a threaded fork now. Anyway, it will be perfect for the Cinelli Record stem. Went for a Stronglight headset as Campag threaded are far...

fork Thanks, I've been watching it and waiting until I have enough in my PayPal account. Its a Kings ransom but got to be better than this carbon thing I'm using. Ahead doesn't belong on a 1" steel frame! Cheers!

Anything really, as long as its at least 160mm headtube fitment. Cheers. :)

Colnago fork Sorted! Got one off Feebay and its goodbye Ahead for me. Pics soon.

After pairs of 32h Campag Record hubs 1999-2006 please. Not the 8sp Ti versions thanks.

forks Another blow, Maestro tell me that Colnago no longer do a threaded Precisa. Our way of life is under threat!

Fork conversion Hey fatfixie, the headtube is 160mm. Cheers. :)

fork Yes, silly me - I've edited it. Anyway, the fork I have is a full carbon job so that would be impossible.

fork Nice one! I'll wait until I get home and let you know. Its a 60cm Master X Light. Cheers!

Can this be done or is a new fork required? The ahead stem is cramping my style and I have a new Cinelli quill to use. Anybody want to swap a Colnago 1" Force carbon fork I have for a chrome Precisa? :)

Master I think the last answer is probably the most plausible. The only thing stoppping it from standing out as a Mexico frame is the paintjob/transfers. The paint looks a bit thick round the head tube lugs and this is not indicative of Colnago finishes. Also, as you say - why would someone...
