Gotta say, I have always loved Formula 1 bikes, partly their cutting edge F1 inspired carbon, partly their British steel rear end, partly as they were made a mile down the road from me. My F1 guru has always been @uno-speedo , another Surrey boy who knows more about F1 bikes than anyone. Years...

Come on, show us the rest of that! Is it a slingshot?

Can I have that?

Thanks a million for that, sadly the bike is a Mavic equipped one so these probably won’t work…

It is, but the odd bit is the fact that it’s a seat QR. Not many road bikes use those. They sold the wheel QRs as ultralight/road but I don’t ever remember the QR being sold.

I’ve got the wheel skewers to go with these, I should make it a set!

My eyes are hurting just thinking about that chain

That’s lovely. Great work in rescuing that frame! A question, where did you get the grafton bushes from?

Sophie at Pace had some NOS ones. Not cheap but NOS

Feel free to quiz me when ever, just keep these updates coming!

Jesus, what did I just read! Next level stuff. Well done that man, incredible

Has anyone got an IRD tubular steel brake booster that they don’t want. Black and good condition ideally but not essential as I am sure I have the wherewithal to respray. Ideally not insane eBay prices!

Maybe it’s a European/american bike. They drive on the right hand side over there.

Tom, what are the depth of the three different chainring bolt spacers?

Not an Onza copy, think that’s a Boulder Cantilever, later sold to Onza to mass produce
