Campag make corkscrews and pizza cutters. Both items of use in the kitchen. This is a kitchen clock so it is just an extension of their existing product portfolio. Think I might take out a patent and wait for the royalties to roll in.

This conversation is useless without photographs.

How do you get on it?

They made an aeroplane in Colditz. What are you escaping from?

No rear brake yet a triple chainring and what looks like a block with no rear mech but not a single speed. Would you trust those welds?

PM on its way.

A clock with character. Or you could call it Steampunk...that covers everything odd. It would certainly be a one off. Might be worth a fortune.

It was actually very easy to make. The hardest part was finding the yellow disc. Google was hammered. I could have black or silver but I didn't fancy either of those. This yellow was the only other colour that I could find. I'm undecided about the red bolts. I "think" they may have been better...

As it says. Both used but both have plenty of life left. £12 each or £20 the pair delivered to UK. Headset now SOLD.

Bought a Campag crankset from Rich. Very helpful making sure it was the correct BCD. Excellent comms. Fast delivery. All round good guy to deal with. (I've remembered where he works for the next time I need some wheels!)

More retrenchment in the cycling industry. Not that I use it, but lots seem to.

Why not use dedicated Colnago end plugs? Why not use dedicated Colnago bar tape? Minor details but on a bike with this astronomical asking price the small details are important.
