    Time pedal timeline ?

    Re: When your original time TBT shoes eventually give up the ghost, you might consider trying a modern speedplay 4 bolt shoe from Bont, DMT, Sidi or Lake and a Time TBT compatibility disc the ones in the link below...Should give a super low stack height...

    Time pedal timeline ?

    Yeah I remember Lemond had those uber cool black look pedals and grey brancale shoes when he won in 1986...while Hinault used the original white look pedals and blue Patrick cycling shoes..First time I saw Lemond using time pedals was in 87 or 88 during his one year stint on the dutch PDM team...

    Time pedal timeline ?

    Re: I don't think I will ever sell them as they were the only pedals I could physically use until speedplay released their zero pedals. The time pedals I have the later 2002 model (red equipe pro magnesium) I have two pairs both red....One well used pair, and one virtually brand new pair of...

    Time pedal timeline ?

    I've been a huge time equipe TBT fan since 1988, and I was happily using them until the cleats became increasingly hard to find. I did try some impact pedals way back in 2004 and absolutely hated them. I just found their narrower q-factor caused my ankles to rub against the cranks, so after one...

    853 Weight?

    Re: I have a 2004 55cm Lemond Zurich Reynolds 853 pro.. The bare frame set minus fork weighs 1750 grams. It's tig welded so would be considerably lighter than a lugged and brazed frame..

    I remember Sean Kelly used to sell off his old team bikes, and unused mavic ssc groupsets every winter. Knew loads of people who used to ride king Kelly's genuine Skill and Kas 979 duralinox bikes :D

    Dura Ace 8 Speed Hub Problem

    Was just thinking- You may have an early Dura-Ace 7400 series hub. These were uni-glide...a slightly shallower spline pattern lock ring than the now ubiquitous hyper-glide...(See photo) Also pictured are the dedicated pre-97 dura-ace removal tool...and a morningstar freehub buddy.... This tool...

    Dura Ace 8 Speed Hub Problem

    Ive never encountered this problem with those hubs, where I couldn't get the shimano uniglide/hyperglide splined cassette removal tool over the drive side cone lock-nut flange...Perhaps the axle is installed the wrong way round? Or perhaps the previous owner may have fitted a spurious axle...

    Dura Ace 8 Speed Hub Problem

    Had these hubs many years ago, and you must release the cone on the opposite non-drive side of the hub. If you intend to remove the freehub body, then you will need a special splined tool for the dura-ace...The cheaper hubs of the same vintage only require a 10mm allen key to remove the freehub...

    Reynolds 753R?

    Re: Reynolds 753 The R=Road and T=Track Apparently the track version was much lighter. I had a 753 frame once, it was very stiff for such a light frame. Lots of savy frame builders never used 753 forkblade,s because they were not flexible enough to absorb poor road surfaces...
