Hi again,
i bought this lovely Peugeot Teamline Columbus Genius frameset off ebay for a very good price - basically as new:
however apart from on one of my bikes i'm not really a fan of quill stems so had wanted the forks changed to threadless aheadset. I took them to C and G in Liverpool - due to the fact they were unicrown forks they couldn't be converted....
I phoned up Steve Goff in Lancashire and 3 months later and a few quid too! i took receipt of a custom pair of columbus (nirvachrom) threadless fillet brazed forks.
They were sprayed to match the frame and i also got the Kelly stem and spacers painted at the same time.
The bike is not fully finished - needs all the cables adjusting and forks cutting downa bit more too but i'm nearl there.....
Let me know what you think.
PS check out the seatpost clamp!!! :xmas-big-grin:
