    Advice please on derailleur capacity

    Suntour Vx will cope with 12-34 rear and triple on the front, extremely reliable and surprisingly light gears with a nice vintage/retro look.

    did i just buy a carrera krakatoa ?

    It's got crackle drip paint you gotta save it, you don't seem many of those late 80's early 90's jobs around now...I've used the hacksaw method before and its fairly easy just slowly slowly catch a monkey, will caustic damage the paint?

    can you salvage the frame though? a new post 26.4mm iirc? should be easily available.

    Replacing threaded drivers on early Sturmey 3 speed hubs

    Does anyone know how involved it is to replace the threaded driver on early Sturmey type hubs.........I have a K32( 1932) that the sprocket is junk, given that they are difficult and expensive-ish to source can I install a 3 spline 'standard' driver from a later 3 speed? I seem to recall...
