Weight variations can be huge ... the differences between lugs and BB shells can be considerable & not all frames with a decal on the seat tube are neccessaily made entirely from that tubing. It's a bit of an in-joke in framebuilding circles that a frame decal might apply to the tube it's on but...

Pennine - very well known and respected builders from Bradford. Originally known as Whittaker & Mapplebeck - the current owners, Sandra and Paul Corcoran bought the business a couple of decades ago (at least) - Paul had been managing the business for some years. They still have frames bearing...

Yes, those Tacx jockeys (and the BBB ones that are very similar) could be a bit of a life-saver :-D I'm always very cautious with recommendations on transmission mods because so much depends on the patience / competence of whoever is doing the work and the expectation of how well the finished...

A bit tired when I wrote that screed so it didn't entirely make sense - but I've edited it now, so now it should -D The important edit is in the middle - I got my cage "throat widths" and chain widths inverted - the problem is potentially a wider chain in a narrower jockey cage "throat" (rather...

OK, so ... Contrary to popular Internet opinion, there's not a one word, or even a one line, answer here. Xenon 9 RDs have the same geometry as 10s RDs, which mean that, of you want to increase the gear range, you can. However, you will probably have to change the RD because the medium cage...

Yes, they are, though they've possibly moved from the old address that you might have known (depending on when / if you've visited) ... now at 20 Commercial St, Shipley, West Yorkshire, BD18 3SP

I worked there with Paul for 2 weeks in Sept, learning how, from a master framebuilder, what I'd figured out how to do the hard way, over the last 40 years in the trade. I'd give Paul top marks in every regard - easy to work with, knows his stuff, beautiful workmanship, good tea & coffee! It's a...

Depends. The factory grease back in the day was "Campagnolo Special Grease" which was an extremely resistant material that held it's properties for a very long time. I've never been able to find out from the factory who made it or what material it was. Some information, there just doesn't...

Ellis Briggs are thriving, doing a fair volume of classic repairs. Paul Gibson runs the business now & is considered by many as a master framebuilder.

Sadly, it's a not-very-well-made (see the rather crude work at the rear dropouts and the very average lug-work), run of the mill frame, possibly CroMo, possibly not, that someone has stuck Campagnolo logos onto. Even though the fork is either engraved or stamped with a maker's mark, there's no...

UK Lead Technician & technical trainer, Campagnolo Approved Service Centres & ProShops

8s was offered in both the original "pointy top" levers and in the later, post 2000 style more rounded levers. Technically there were two versions of the 1993-2000 lever, the earliest ones without and later ones with, a helper spring at the back of the lever assembly. The ones without the helper...

Those pads are more applicable to 1990s brakes. My guess is, that you are looking for the square ended pads that preceeded these, currently coded BR-RESR. We should have stock at £22.00 for a set of 4, at the Campagnolo Service Centre (Velotech Cycling Ltd). If not (Im out of the office at the...

Re: Both Campagnolo and Shimano use 1.2mm inners for gear inner. The nipple sizes are different, for sure - Campagnolo have always used a smaller nipple than Shimano but a quick skim through Campagnolo and Shimano documentation as published by the companies, reveals no difference in the gear...

Re: Campagnolo don't supply replacement rims for Khamsin wheels, even to us at the main Service Centres - the labour cost to rebuild them, relative to the cost of a new pair of Khamsins makes it uneconomic to re-rim them. There aren't any wear indicators on the Khamsin, so if you are in any...

Yes, it can be done given the correct tools (Cyclus have them as stock items) and you should not need a donor hub, the spares are still available from the factory as they are the same as some of the later generation, non-oversize axle hubs ... Depending on where you are, your local ProShop...

Re: Comp, Race and Champ were essentially "unranged" groups. You can judge the level of technology by looking at the double chainsets or the RDs of the time, see the spare parts that correspond across the ranges and draw your conclusions from there. Broadly, Comp was Centaur / Chorus-level...

TBH I'd have to have a measure-up. Leave it with me, I'll be able to confirm for you tomorrow. I'm up at the workshop and have Athena bikes as well as Record 2011 bikes there so a direct comparison is easy ... My gut says yes but best to be 100pc sure!

You have to be careful mixing and matching Campag rings - they are not all the same thickness and you can hit issues there because the rings are supported from both inner and outer sides - so if you get a mismatch of ring thickness, you can end up with a kink in the rings where they pass behind...
