Re: Re: It's already happening in BMX world, LHD is yet another fad. My mate has already made a bike with LHD; he says 'it's better for tricks because I'm right-handed'. The BMX trinket manufacturers must be rubbing their hands with glee. I also recently read about a gyro for hydraulic...

Re: very kind, thanks... don't know depth but it's a Tacx Campag BB tool, roughly 70mm deep I would guess. Stonehouse is a bit of a trek though, I'm hoping to find something closer, but I'll PM you if I happen to go down there. Thanks again

Trying to get my bottom bracket off and my vice is too shallow to hold BB tool. Can you help? Some sort of chocolate based treat could be an incentive.

+1. Much easier to market soap than nerdy CNC'd bike parts.

Anything considered if it's Bianchi blue/green

I'm looking for: RH Daytona crank & rings OR complete Campag crankset in alu finish eg Veloce, Daytona, Chorus (pref 172.5mm) Campag brake blocks (with the little sticky out wing to help the wheel locate) Veloce front mech - braze-on, silver finish 9-spd Campag brifter (Ergopower) RH can...

Re: I can't tell you any more than what I know, which is that I bought it from a fella off this site in Sheffield (Colin) a few years back. Here is another pic of it in pre-painted form. I weighed the whole bike yesterday and it comes in at 9.8kg, don't know if this is good or bad.

I really like that. Luckily it's in Ossett which I assume is somewhere in the Wild North...

Has anyone else seen this yet? https://vanhawks.com/studio It seems heavy on tech ( connected GPS, blind spot monitor Etc) but the interesting thing for me is the cvt hub (option). It seems like cracking value too although I don't know what import duty would be.

I recently had this fun with headsets, I didn't realise 44mm was a 'new' standard, then I got lost in the different depths and facing angles you can get... what a load of old nonsense. In the end I stumbled across a threaded 44mm 'ZS' Tange jobbie that did the trick, but it was after hours of...

I'm reet brazed off with this thread

Apologies if this has been outed before, and I'm willing to be corrected, but this looks dodgy as anything: http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.vi ... 03&alt=web 653 decal doesn't look like it is from the right period. 'Bubbling' on (aluminium) crank? Tell me I'm wrong...

The only thing that makes me think they aren't supers is that they don't have the etched/stamped ofmega logo on the centre of the hub. Otherwise they look identical to the supers on velobase

Re: Next job for me: learn to count. I don't think these are super comp hubs - I just went on velobase and found the closest match.

Re: Thanks. I love this site! Don't know much about Rodi - anyone got any reports? Quick online search seems to show they're a budget far east offering but I'm quite pleased with the quality and weight. I bougut a 2nd hand wheelset off the bay for £40, and they seem in good nick...
