    The lite age

    No reason to dismantle it. The Campagnolo is a good idea.

    For Sale Saab 9-3 Turbo coupe 3dr SE Hot

    With the large door this are the easiest/best cars to transport bicycles in. As classic 900 rider I know the benefit. Like with Volvo in NL there is an extensive network of specialists for Saabs and parts are plenty.

    To Suspension Fork or Not

    Nice bike you have there. Personally I wouldn't ruin it with a crappy suspenion fork from the early days. Maybe a more modern bike offers the comfort you are looking for, but it is of course not half as cool :cool:

    The lite age

    What a transformation and an an interesting component selection. Seat looks a bit high. Is the bike the right size for you? I finished my Litage a while ago: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/new-project-sr-sakae-litage-finished-result-on-page-3.435259/post-3732224

    Help to identify - lugged carbon frame

    It looks a lot like a Batavus Hunter carbon. I think Giant supplied the frames to Batavus, as they did to many more bicycle brands.

    The Canadian "Team Chance"

    In the Archive there is the 1993 Concorde catalogue. I think this Team Chance is the same frame as the Team Half track model. My Concorde Mirage: https://www.retrobike.co.uk/threads/2-riders-miyata-concorde.461365/

    The Canadian "Team Chance"

    I doubt this was Chris' project. My knowledge is that it was a project by the Fat Chance importer for Canada (Veltec) who used (a part of) the name with or without permission. Apart from the Tange Struts, I do not see resemblance with a Fat Chance. The frame looks Canadian. I do have a Concorde...

    Buckled rubber issues

    I had the same experience with a fresh pair recently. The hassle made me mad and I trew them away. Pity, but in my experience there are enough tires around that do work.

    New project: SR Sakae Litage >>> finished result on page 3

    I have a weak spot for bonded frames like this. The bonding and bolting, the way the tubes are joined, cables are routed the distinctive wishbone stays and many more design choices that make this frame a frame you can only take for a SR Litage. The 'the Pipe' stem is constructed in the same way...
