I use these: http://www.tyreinflators.co.uk/ Very fast service and seem to be cheap. Cheers, Roger

The serial number on my Clockwork is under the bottom bracket. My Clockwork is a 92 and had a UN-52 cartridge bearing bottom bracket, but it needed heat applying to get it out. My orange was powder coated RAL2008 Luminous Orange with Pearlescent White fade. Gil_M can supply the correct decals...

The headset is an FSA Duron, unfortunately the letters are etched in so if you are after a more authentic look then you might want to look at something else, but it seems to do the job. This bike will mainly be used on road now, hence the semi slicks and why the long stem does not bother me too...

A valid point, though the only things that have changed on this bike in the last 16 years has been due to wear and tear. I had not considered changing the stem as I had never given it any thought and also that is how it came from the shop all those years ago. I might just have to now...

Not with Helicopter Tape covering the paintwork :wink: Need to protect the investment somehow!

My Clockwork has gone from this:

Should be picking up my refurbished powder coated luminous orange pearlescent white fade clockwork today from my LBS (can't make gears work!) so will post pictures hopefully this afternoon. See what you think!

Another vote for Orange and White fade, but I guess it only looks good on an Orange! Cheers, Roger

Wanted: Shimano XT SQ-M730 quick release for Seat post/binder, ideally NOS. Thanks in advance, Roger

When I spoke to them they were happier about doing fades rather than two solid colours. They did say that the work would not be easy but were confident about the results, otherwise I would not let them, but time will tell. I will post up detailed pictures of the frame and forks as and when I...

The price I was quoted was £70, don't know if this includes VAT. If you factor in the cost of the decals from Gil_M, you end up with a refurbished frame and forks for less than £100, and done in a week. If you compare this to Bob Jackson who quoted £200 with a four week turnaround, it all...

Thanks for all the posts. I have spoken at length to a powder coating firm called Hutchcoat, who have been recommended by others on this forum and are based near York. They have experience of powder coating bikes and have previously done two colour fades, so they will be getting the frame...

What can I say, nothing is straight forward! boy"O"boy - the "O" looks fantastic, and well worth the effort! I was looking at powder coating because of the toughness of the finish, as my Orange is in daily use, I had assumed it would be as easy to manipulate as "normal" paint. I guess I...

Hi, I am looking into powder coating my 92 Orange Clockwork, which has the orange/white fade paintwork and was wondering what RAL colours you have used to respray/powder coat your frames, the list of orange shades in the RAL colour chart is massive! I have attempted to contact Orange about...

Gil created a complete set of 92 Orange Clockwork decals for me, an absolute star! Thanks a lot! Roger

Apologies for the poor picture, but here is my 92 Clockwork, which is now in use every day. I already have a set of 92 decals from Gil_M. I am trying to get around to having it powder coated, any suggestions as to which colours? Roger

Hi, Long time lurker and now actually posting something! I found this site whilst looking for information about Orange Clockworks. I have a 92 Clockwork, which I have had since new. That's just about all for now. Roger
