Wooow, visually stunning ! Like the others, I love the colors you chose ! Serious bike with just what's needed for the fun ! :) Ooooh, I just saw that the stem and the bottle holder, some bits of the saddle and the brake levers, are the same color as the letters of the logo on the frame. Genius...

Hello, Time to show the last singlespeed I built ! I wanted something light to ride on the road. I wanted an aluminium frame and I found a very interesting and probably unique one, a Raymond Clerc. It's a frame buillder from the town where I live (Lyon, in France). I think it's an hand made one...

Hello ! I've received the decals ! \o/ Between others, I have two vertical ones. What do you think ? Should I put them on the seatstays or on the fork ? :) W.

24pouces, you read in my mind ! I also tought of the Rancho when I saw the Vélover. I've always loved this car. My grandparents had a Talbot 1100 (the coupe version), which is the city version of the Rancho if I may say so : https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simca_1100 😍 W.

Hello, It's the display (circled in red on the photo below). :) This bike is so ugly that it's lovely ! I have never seen one albeit french and living it France since... 50 years or so. The weight is 19,6 kg. W.

Hello, I've read most of the discussion and I think you're very generous to give so much time to the other part to do the transaction. One month is a lot of time. If you've given all the informations and if you have no answer, then this guy is not so interested. Given the volume of a bike...

Thank you ! :) I've just sent an e-mail to my LBS hoping to have informations about this bike (I tried to call them but they weren't able to answer, probably too much people in the shop). Curious to read what they'll answer me. W.

Hello, Step by step, the bike is improving. I have received the hoods. I installed a new right one, it's so much better now, and at the same time, I changed the handlebar tape. Happy for my first try, no more nude metal and no red adhesive abomination. I have taken pics (we can also see the new...

Hello, I bought mine back in 2015, it's a 1989 Sahara and I wanted to make it singlespeed (32-teeth chainring and 17-teeth cog). Today, not much left from the original (the frame – obviously :D –, the fork, the headset, the stem, the BB and... That's all !). It doesn't show on the pics but at...

Hello, I confirm none of the frames on the pics are like mine, From all the pics I have seen since yesterday, the frame of the San Remo seems to be the closest. Love the pic you used to show the K14. Some minutes ago, I as wandering on ebay to watch frames, and i saw this one, sold by...

Aaaaah, yes, I see a lot of new replies, today ! Thank you, what a pleasure ! :D @otherself : Based on what jonnyboy666 said, I tend to agree that it's not a K14, because of the replacable dropout, that definately makes my bike equipped with a taiwanese frame. I recognize this dropout on the...

Thank you ! The replacable / non replacable dropouts tip is nice to recognize the frames. That'll help even more to guess where the bikes come from. I hope my dealer will be able to do something with the serial number. Today, between rests, I continued to clean the bike, I partially...

Hello, Thank you for your reply ! :) You say these bikes can be made in Italy or in Taiwan and that mine is taiwanese but the logo on the front tube indicates Italy. Well, it's just a logo after all, I suppose for that it's not a reliable thing, am I ? I have found a set of decals that will...

The rest ! :p (the red adhesive is absolutely horrendous, it was black on the seller's pics). Fortunately, I have black adhesive and even if the handlebar tape is new, I'll change it with black one soon. Ah, yes, the seatpost is a carbon one. Not a lot of grease on it, but I don't have the...

As promised, the pics I took today ! :)

Hello, I've found a 1998 road bike on the aftermarket and I'd like to know more about it. I bought it (because it's my size and it's a difficult size to find, the price was OK and I never have had a bike of this kind, I have always been in the MTB team !), it's OK, far from pristine but I'm on...

Hello, My turn : a 1996 XS Kona Lava Dome. Some components were changed (fork, stem, headset, seatpost, saddle, tyres) by the previous owner when I bought it and I wanted something more like the original. It was difficult to find exact original components, but it's better now, I've found a 1990...
