Re: I'm the new owner! Wowser! :shock: :oops: :D I'm really pleased you're enjoying it. The new wheelset sounds fun and I hope you enjoy your tour on it. I'll PM you now the specifics on the paint and decals.

Ok this build has taken a fair bit of time so far, collecting 8 speed Dura Ace parts, and I think I just got used to seeing the white saddle on it. Although I had it in the kitchen over night with the black Rolls fitted, and by this morning it kinda looked ok. An I think in truth trying to keep...

:lol: :oops: Must seem like a right indecisive twit! Just wanna get it right..

ok I just fitted the black saddle and it looks a bit... of a stark contrast and maybe a little dull? I can see how that It would be a LOAD more practIcal. But this bike doesn't really need to be 100% practical. Although not having to forever clean the saddle would be handy. Maybe I just need...

I think you may be right about the white/white. But reluctant to go black/black.. The white paint has a pearlescent type lacquer. Decision, decisions..

And if anyone knows anything about Menet that would be great. All Google tells me is they are a bike shop..

Hi I got this frame and fork a while ago and collected the parts, with the intention of building it up as a 'Sunday best bike / garage queen', and It's my 1st bike with "brifters". It'll also probably be used for a few Flanders and London to Paris type things. The girlfriends brother and...

Hi. I've got this Cucchietti in Columbus SL, Cucchietti are quite unusual in the UK, but are I understand highly regarded. The seat tube measures 62cm centre to top, and 60cm centre to centre. The top tube measures 59cm centre to centre. If you're interested I could forward some more pics?

Got one here > www.lfgss.com/thread88229.html

I''ve got these > www.lfgss.com/thread88369.html Got some basic alloy wheels also if you fancied? Good luck :)

Early '90s version that just says "Dura Ace" type bump.

It does look like super strong money, the magic of ebay, the time of year and an Itallion brand!? You've gotta love nieve money when you're selling. Although compared to what that would buy in your average local bike shop, it's starting to look like a bargain..

Smart move!

It's way too cheap!!! Must resist.. Does it have a frame number?

Hi I'm looking for a Dura Ace stem about 100/110mm long, one of the ones with the concealed bolts. Cheers.

I've been trying to learn a bit about a couple of Columbus tube sets recently, an I googled up this article. Now I appreciate "ride and feel" are subjective, but I thought it might be of interest to some people? www.habcycles.com/m7.html

£200! Absolutely bargaintastical type bump.

Or the colour of the Milan sky, or my favourite - a mixture of old army surplus paint!

It could be made out of scaffold poles and I'd still lust after it in that colour! :lol:

Whatever it's made of and whatever kit goes on it, it's going to look FANTASTIC in that colour! ;) I understand you may have the basis for a great, well built wheelset, that will certainly help it. Looking forward to seeing more pictures as it gets built up, I really like these build...
