As part of an informal competition with a mate to "put the most obscure groupset you can on a bike" I am looking for Sachs 7000 components in the red colour scheme, I currently have nothing and so I am looking for everything, front and rear mech, the Sachs ergo shifters, brake calipers and...

email just in: RR cancelled for 2020 No great surprise given where we currently find ourselves. A further mail will give info on refunds/registration for other events. I fear this will be the first of many cancellations between now and the summer. Looking on the bright side it gives me...

What a beauty! Is the seat tube 55 C-T? If it's 55 square i may be able to convince myself it will fit. thanks

Re: Re: Someone is going to be very happy. For SBDUs I find completed sales is useful for telling you what you will not get for your bike :)

make a cup of tea and then settle down with this :) http://www.peugeotshow.com/

Just had a look at the photos.. I think I was a few hundred too low!

Search on eBay for completed listings, this will show you the price that bikes sold for and did not sell for, over the last three months. In the last couple of weeks two 753s have sold on the main Ditch sales site for around 1000 euro each. Both were original paint and one was all original...

Registration now open for what is a fab weekend in Flanders with easy access from the UK, beer, frites...and a whole bunch of cobbles and stupidly steep climbs :D https://www.retroronde.be/en/

I realise that I am five years too late, but in 1977 he was on grey anodized Mavic SSC rims. Or to be more precise his 1977 P-R bike, that Gios bring to Eroica every year, has Grey SSC's fitted and in a conversation with Marco he confirmed that Mavic SSC's were the rim used. Sorry if this is...

Re: Hennie Kuiper's TI-Raleigh 1976 Team Bike Frame Number HK 3612 photos now on CC album. 5797 was on Marktplaats but identified as Reynolds 653 and respirated in an inverted Gazelle colour scheme. Photos too large up upload and I cann’T workout how to reduce: there are some pics on the...

Midlife I had tried to send Neil a mountain of photos of 3612 a couple of months ago (transfer position, paint with the yellow under-spray, lugs etc. However, I have a feeling they did not arrive. In any case you have the frame now:-) I has also tried to send some photos of SB5797, I assume...

For fans of continental retro cycling Retro Ronde has just announced this years event for for 30-31 May https://www.rvvseries.com/ This gives me an excuse to post up a few other notifications which have come to my in-box recently With La Pedals de Clip also in May...

The saddle looks to be an Ideale 2002 which would make it about a decade younger than the bike. Is it the Titane version? Stickers underneath will say so or, if no stickers, it should weigh 310g (according to the velobase) If you think 310g is not very light for a titanium railed saddle, you...

Goldie, The Reynolds are lovely, and should be repairable and so last forever. If , however, you are looking for something easier to find on the shoe cupboard :) https://proou.com/boutique/sneakers/proou-electric/. More seriously, the Ribo shoes are great, not all the styles are at brash...

Others will know more than me, but my understanding is that Ribble got their steel frames from a number of builders, including Martelly from Belgium who build fine bikes. There is a huge discussion to be had about what makes a good bike with,arguably, tubing being less important than the...

Make yourself a cuppa and have a browse here http://peugeotshow.com/

Wolber bought Super Champion and for a while kept the name on everything, so there are both tubulars and clinchers out there. And no, my memory is not better, I had to check on Velobase :lol:

Since this has become an “all things Greg” thread, does anyone know what size shoes he wears? No, not a strange fetish :oops: bit I picked up a pair of Carnac Lemond’s from a guy who said his dad was a soigneur with Z and was given them by a rider. Almost certainly BS, but hey, it would be...

Did someone say "Mapai Cougar"? Not sure if this is still for sale or not, as the ad has been there a few months. https://www.2ememain.be/vélos/pièces-accessoires-/cadres/aluminium-koersfiets-472574216.html In theory it is collection only, but you can but ask...

Ohhps, I missed that they were clinchers, you are right they do go for a little more...but makes me wonder why on earth would anyone want a clincher version: are they not heavy enough as it is!
