Hi all, I'm moving houses soon and I came across this box with some random old Campagnolo components that I apparently own somehow without any recollection. Could you help me identify what we're looking at? Pictures are clickable for more detail. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Rear...

Re: Alright, pics and measurements: Actual top tube length 55,5cm cc Seat tube length ct 43cm Seat tube length cc 37cm If you want any specific pictures, let me know. The black electrical tape is there to hold the brake liners in place, no nasty surprises underneath. Complete with cable guide...

Re: Klein Fervor frame w/Marzocchi Bomber fork Vital information - sorry for not including it in the first place. I'll measure it with a tape measure, iirc Klein's sizing is weird. I'll update with pics and size this evening (I'm one of the poor sods that works on Saturdays :facepalm: ).

Good afternoon gentlemen (and ladies?), This frame has been with me for a few years but ultimately hasn't seen much use - prefer to take out my Pulse Comp as it feels less 'special' so I'm not afraid to get rough with it. It's not NOS however so keep that in mind. I understand no one's buying...

Hey stumpjumper this might be a long shot but do you have a rigid fork with 1" steerer knocking about that you might want to get rid of? Not looking for anything in particular, any old fork will do I guess but I saw your topic title and I'm in NL too so I thought I'd ask!

While trying to fit a pair of HS33s to a new fork I found out that the silver bracket thingy that's supposed to sit on the inside of the fork leg is in the wrong angle and prevents the whole unit from being fitted properly. How do I adjust this thing, or can I even remove it alltogether? (some...

Beautiful frame in a beautiful colour. Did you consider modern suspension forks? A modern fork with black lower legs would make aesthetical sense in my opinion, and along with the modern XTR kit would make this old beast able to compete with the best of them performance wise.

How could your dad have found the original fork and NOT know what bike it belongs to with those colours? :shock: Anyway it looks great, paint job seems like a very close match to the frame!

Managed to find a magic gear of 46/17. I won't be taking it off road and the ratio is exactly the same as my single speed commuter so it should be ok, I just hope the knobby tyres won't work against me too hard. I might swap them out with some fat Ritchey slicks I have or skinny Schwalbe Kojaks...

Very nice and actually similar to the bike I'm currently building, although every single component you've used is nicer than mine lol. I'm building a Pulse Comp SS, if you ever take this bike out to ride the Bergschenhoek trail, make sure to notify me so our bikes can meet ;)

Ah so it's '97. Doesn't change much I suppose, post Trek just like my guess of '96, but still made in Chehalis, and it still has the Klingon font. To me, the introduction of the newer font (1999?) really marked the end of Klein, they don't appeal to me at all. What's the difference between a...

Is the name of this "purple, pink and green" scheme not Team Storck?

So I picked up this frameset the other day. I was just surfing the local classifieds website not really looking for something specific (as you do) and I stumbled upon this Klein Pulse Comp frameset. I can't afford to build a bike up from scratch right now and a Pulse Comp certainly isn't the...

Most days I will ride my fixed wheel converted '77 Gazelle. I found the frame as a complete bike in the trash before the garbage men had a chance to take it. The bike was a mess, the paint was in terrible shape and the components had corroded and seized. I had a spare fixed wheelset that was...

Wow this is really something special. I often see a chap riding one of those sporty mopeds across my neigbourhood and he's had all the plastic body panels Spectrachromed (I was familiar with the process but never knew the name :P ) It's quite a sight seeing that thing in direct sunlight. Looking...

Just picked up this bike: I've always kind of wanted a Raleigh in Team attire, and I could get this for pretty cheap so I went for it. My understanding is it's not a particularly high end model this one, and I wasn't sure of what to do with it until I saw the state the bike was in...

Hmm I don't think the hub can rotate in relation to the rim, the spokes on one flange could, if it weren't for the spokes on the other flange. They would need to stretch for the hub to rotate. It's a bit difficult to put into words but I hope you catch my drift. I'll try to do a pic today, the...

Right, a while ago I was just screwing around with an old wheel that I wasn't going to use anymore. I took it apart, painted the rim and spokes and when it was time to put it back together I didn't feel like lacing it up the way it was before. I had already built a couple of wheels before but it...

WD Pro on here was worried about the same thing when powdercoating some parts, he put them in his oven at home and the adhesive seemed to hold up just fine. No guarantee though as you can't be sure they used the same adhesive.. Wet paint is probably safer but maybe not feasible if the rest of...

Are they comfortable though? Like I said I own one, but haven't had the chance to try it out yet as the bike it's on is still incomplete. If the SLR I once owned is anything to go by I'm afraid I won't like it very much :shock:
