Hi, This 1987 Fat Chance frame no 87472 looks original, but after discussions with someone on here (who knows his stuff), the fork has double eyelets and reinforcement at the crown, like a 1987 Cannondale fork, but it is for Cantis not the roller cams. Headset is Specialized not Shimano 600...

Hiya yes the frame was refurbed already. The sticker is “531 Renovated” and I suspect it was sprayed by Argos. They repaired the seat binder by adding the penny plate and brazing it. They also reamed the seat tube as the seat post was stuck and I used caustic soda to remove. Gonna get it powder...

here is my 1990 (I think) Pioneer. Reynolds 531 and dropouts.

Re: Hello, I think I might have bought this bike, or one which is identical in every respect including paint removed from right fork leg.

Re: Re: bare metal and clear. This is not the original paint job. I want to see the fillet brazing. Seen it done before, looks ace.

Bought this a few weeks ago. Stuck seatpost so it will be caustic soda to get it out. Full Deore DX. I'm going to get it clear powder coated when done. Mavic M261 rims but not stainless spokes so I'll rebuild the wheels too. Needs a minor weld repair to front or seatpost. Probably get a...

Hello, Bought this, got berated on here for wanting to convert it to a fixed wheel here: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=306260 So am selling it. And may buy an on-one il pompino instead. Already got a Road Ace for road duties here: viewtopic.php?f=23&t=154731 Bike is in Calne, Wiltshire but I work in...

What's a hipster? I do have a Timbuk2 courier bag which I bought in 1998. I also built my first fixed wheel in 1999. Well before the "trend" I think.
