Due to my current 'in between roles' status I'm currently looking at my bikes and thinking "do I want to keep that?". One is a genuine SBDU 531 Raleigh Ti in Frankenspec (it's got what I like on it!). 8spd campag. I looked up the serial and it's either a 76 or 78, memory fails Mr. What I...

Hi All, Please see for sale my Fausto Coppi, manufactured by the Fiorelli brothers in the 1970s. To make space! It's is in ok condition with original silver/grey paintwork. The paint has some signs of its age and in some places a little chipped but the frame has no dents, cracks and is not...

Hello everyone. I need to make room in the shed for my daughters new car project. So I'm going to shift a few bikes. This is a bike a bought a good few years ago. It originally was setup CX style, with michelin muds, which turned to dust. So I fitted it with widish Veloflex tyres (which have...

I hope this is ok given it’s my listing.... http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/710-53481 ... olid=11111

Some years ago I saved this from a lonely life in a local bike shop (Roy Pinks in Newport Pagnel). The aim was for it to be ridden my Mrs P at l'eroica (the real one), which never really happened. I've just had a look at it in the shed, and I am thinking of what to do with it. What I am really...

’ve decided to sell my Rourke that o built up a couple of years ago, which some of you might remember from me posting on here. It is a 1978 frame in 531, a bit tatty but structurally ok, and I liked the honesty of it so I built up with gen 1 9 speed campag, with Mavic Cxp 30 rims on campag...

I know this is stretching the retro theme past breaking point, but thought I’d post a pic of my nemo. I built it up to replace my carbon race bike because I love my traditional stuff, and wanted to race on steel. So here is is. Hope you like it!

Morning, A friend and I do a shortest and longest day charity ride, and this year we are ‘chasing the sun’ by doing the c2c in a day. We do this with a big ‘top gear’ style reveal of our chosen velo, based on some arbitrary made up rules. The bike gets auctioned afterwards. I’ve ridden things...

Picked it up yesterday - needs a clean up but Chorus 9 speed and generally lovely. Can’t wait to race it. Reynolds 653.

Hello, I’m looking for a TT bike, vague difficult to meet desires as follows :) Not lo pro, with proper TT bars (so likely 90’s/00’s I guess) Steel preferred Campag preferred Interesting wheels preferred (however not essential) I will be doing club TT’s, so it needs to be rideable and...

1978 531sl (rourke think!), sold by Paul smith cycles originally. Now wearing campag 9speed ergos, needs a new saddle but blummin lovely so far.

Afternoon all. I've been after a Rourke for an age now, and picked up this well used example at the weekend. Record cranks, 105 the rest. Record hubs on Mavic gp4's. Just making a plan, but the first plan is to ride it!

As it was my 40th birthday recently I treated myself to a Battaglin Frame, in Columbus. I'd be after something with a retro feel, in steel, that I could pair with more modern components - the aim being it would be a bit more accesible than the downtube shifter bikes I have and love, and also (in...

All, I'm on the lookout for a bike to treat myself with - against a tricky £500 budget. the 'must have' list: 1) Ergoshifters (and in other words, has to be campag without downtube shifters) 2) Steel and perferably italian. I get this is a bit of a tall order given the budget!

Saw this, fell in love, bought it without really knowing exactly what I was buying, other that thinking "Hey, that really looks like a photo I have" Columbus tubing made by Fiorelli, Super record groupset, mavic GP4 rims and lovely hubs. Some "vintage patina" but overall love it. Looking...

Hope this a) hasn't been posted before and b) is the sort of thing this area is looking for! http://www.merlincycles.com/bike-shop/t ... -tyre.html
