    MAVIC 231 CD vs OXYGEN 6 CD

    Simplistically the M6s were replaced by the M261, MA40 was replaced by M231, the thin ones were racer rims, the others were more everyday rims. For 93, the M231/261 would be a better year match, and remember that almost all bikes were on cassettes by then rather than using freewheels (that said...

    Mystery bike

    I know what you mean but this is not titanium, not with that rack mount on the dropout at least . The DNA you’re thinking of had a star cutout on the rear section of their extended dropout. Looks like someone snapped it at the dropout and has welded in a gusset either side. There’s a load of...

    Wanted San Marco Regal Girardi saddle in snake skin

    Sad;y not, it’s restricted to Italian residents as it has a phone number verification..

    Wanted San Marco Regal Girardi saddle in snake skin

    A very specific request. I have got an old ad in the road wtd section but I know lots of people don’t venture that far south in the forum so I thought I would check here too. I want a really good condition 80s/90s copper rivet Girardi saddle, specifically with the snake skin leather. It’s for a...

    1990 Lemond bike bottle cage identification

    I don’t often venture to these rarified forums, mainly staying on the MTB side but a recent project has lead me to need the collective wisdom in identifying a small part. I am building up a 1990 Lemond TVT, but rather than the usual Tour de France variant, I am building a Giro d’Italia version...

    Cook Bros Stem in 1 1/4 real or fake?

    Their seat post sizes were always a rough guide, 27.2 could be anything from 26.4-28.6mm.

    An Unusual Formula 1 - final pictures on page 3 and 4

    That’s superb, another life goal for me is to continue cycling as long as you have, and without electric. Rest assured, no dark corners for this bike, it’s too pretty to hide away. It’s been out and had some miles put in on it, nothing too strenuous but some good canal paths along the grand...

    An Unusual Formula 1 - final pictures on page 3 and 4

    Philip, the pleasure was all mine. Thank you for letting me be the new custodian of this amazing bike. Hopefully I’ve kept true to what your vision of the bike always was - stealthy and good looking, your eye for design drove the final look of this. Hopefully I didn’t misrepresent anything in...

    Wowzers! That was a tough month to win in, especially with that beautiful San Andreas in the mix. I will assume the British Grand Prix weekend helped subliminally boost the vote for the F1 Thanks everyone for the votes! And big thanks again to everyone who contributed time, expertise, skills...

    NOS Marin Ti? Sort of?

    Early titanium welds are not as smooth as modern two pass welding. That’s very, very titanium. Lovely bike but over priced

    boy"O"boy's 1989 Serotta Off-road Pro-flex prototype

    With all those extras decals, that has to be a team ridden bike, they look too random to be someone putting them on to emulate a team bike. And maybe this bike is earlier than the advert one as the butted section looks to strengthen up the weak spot on your frame which looks to have a crack...
