    Vintage French randonneuer's and porteurs.

    Loooooovely... if it wasn't too big for me I'd snap it up. He was one of the René Herse team, though later built his own bikes. Not as much customisation as say a Herse, but still clearly built the customers specifics, probably as a Campuer?

    I'm in the process of buying a Eurasia from a friend. The whole Japanese Campuer/ Constructeur/ Randonneuring scene is fascinating. Even off the peg options seem to have come with a great amount of customisation available. http://cyclespeugeot.web.fc2.com/reminiscence/bsgrandvelo39.htm

    This is great, I know they're a Dutch brand, but this very much captures the fast French Randonnuer style

    Vintage French randonneuer's and porteurs.

    What about bars with less drop and reach? https://www.hubjub.co.uk/nitto-b135-aa-randonneur-129-p.asp But I'd say 'flat' but swept back bars are still pretty in keeping https://www.hubjub.co.uk/nitto-b347-dove-2570-p.asp But ultimately its the riders choice, you feel comfortable, you wanna...

    Vintage French randonneuer's and porteurs.

    Hopefully considered relevant to the thread, anyone know of anyone making more intresting 50.4 bcd rings. Looks like Sun XCD have ceased to exist. I know you can use T.A. or Velo Orange rings. Currently running 10 speed at the back, but am going to move away from Brifters and go bar end, so am...

    Sorted Touring Frame w. Decent clearances max 55 c2c top tube, 53 c2c seat

    Hopefull post, but you never know. My Roberts clubman is great with a very light load (saddle and handlebar bar) but becomes very springy when properly loaded. My missus has a Simoncini that I had as a teenager, which clears 700× 38 without mudguards, could possibly get away with 700 × 40. I'm...

    89 Fisher/ early Evolution Headset dimensions

    It's definitely a 1 1/4. It currently got a YST one on. Frame number starts '89, so either, not surprisingly with Fisher he changed the spec... or its not a Procaliber. But it seems to have the orginal paint and the Prestige Ping? And it rides really well.

    How I learnt to stop worrying and love FTW

    He does something not a million miles off for Ron's Bikes, so can't see it being too much of an ask?

    89 Fisher/ early Evolution Headset dimensions

    I'd completely forgotten about this! The below is what concerned me. I think I owe the good @doctor-bond a pm, either to say I'm still interested if he has it and say sorry if he hasn't!
