^He/she (Sascha could go either way..) ís in Germany.. Get it, it's very nice..

^Last time he said it was gonna be the white blue fade.. But then not from front to back, but side to side if you get what I mean.. Like that gorgeous Roberts from Johnny Lau/Rau..

KNSMeiland represent!

I don't think it's a Gazelle.. Framenumber thing doesn't add up.. It should've been stamped with Gazelle to be a Gazelle.. Also, although fork crowns look/are identical, clearance is not.. Put a wheel in it, you'll see.. I believe in th OG FS thread there was a picture with wheels.. That was one of the things that put me off from buying it when it came for sale again, besides having already bought another frame.. ;)
Also, wrapover stays should wrapover totally for a Gazelle, like in touching each other in the middle.. Also, Gazelle lugs are cutout, from pic 1, that's not the case..

I believe someone mentioned what the forks were in the FS thread.. Too lazy to look it up.. Maybe that's a connection to look further..? I'm convinced it's not a Gazelle.. (I own 2 from that era, no track though..)

My 2p. keep as is, slap on nice components (with restecp to frame.. fluted cranks, box rims, etc), have a-awesome rat!

Feck it.. I'll take it..

I'm doubting to pull the trigger on the 3ttt stem..

^120 pieces.. Duh.. ;) A 58mc weighs 1650 grams and they're ratailing at 2495 euro's..

I thought I heard they're all sold out, but best try to contact Gazelle if you got the money's..

@ Doktor P.: WHY?! That's easily one of my favourite bikes of the forum..

^He's got the crank already..

Those look comfy, a bit like Nitto went Syntace Stratos..

^Thanks Peter, but Ferdi oldcampy has sorted me with a very nice 3ttt one..
Looks like this, I now see that's DC's photostream, so what a small world.. Not an SL though, but the pattern is the same.. Form is like an Unicanitor.. I immediatly fell for it, really suits the non usual suspects approach I'm having with this project..

You wouldn't happen to have a seatpost would you? ;)

^He's got hubs already..

Cheers, but I'm not actually looking for a wheelset from here.. Postage would add 25 pounds, so not worth my while.. Maybe I've should've put the "advice bit" in Current Projects, but hey, I hoped this would work too..

Also, geared things tend to go cheaper here on this side of the stream.. Hubs are no biggie posted, but wheelsets, as earlier stated, 'll be to dire with postage..

I've also found:
Fulcrum 5's (used, 70 euro's)
Mavic Aksium (used, 50/60ish)

How would those compare?

I might just PM the tester, right..?

I've found a new silver Mavic Aksium wheelset for 140 euro's (I'm Dutch) delivered.. Sounds like a good deal.. Is it..?

Hi,

I've just made the leap from 8 speed to 10 speed Campagnolo, but, since they changed spline design between 8 and 9/10/11speed.. I either need a need a new hub/rear wheel/wheelset..

Regarding the hub: 24h/28/32h would all work.. I have rims to suit all spokage..

Otherwise, I'd like suggestions for a nice silver/alu wheelset that is Campagnolo 10sp compatible.. I've found a Ursus Countach wheelset on our local gumtree marktplaats but no clue whatsoever on quality..

Any suggestions, kind folk?

Thank you very much,

Ruud

Update: the frame is on the way thanks to the very kind benjybars.. So.. Anyone? :)

Those are specific and custom for those Takhion frames.. USSR produced..

Shift them in our motherland the Netherlands.. Postage isn't going to be worth it for no-one..

I have a new steamroller fork for sale.. Unpainted, uncut, unused, straight out of the factory in Taiwan.. PM me if the buyer of the frame wants it.. Have some snaps somewhere..

This is awesome.. Someone buy it..

Seriously no idea.. Thing is, oversize tubes = stiffer (and thinner wall thickness I believe), stainless steel = lighter then chrome.. So logic says it's lighter.. DC will know.. Have a googled a catalog but that doesn't say anything on weight..

Dicki, I have a '94 Exception.. It's Reynolds 731OS with Noblex stainless steel forks and rear stays..
That's an old marktplaatspicture of off when I got it in March this year.. Changed the 8-speed DA to 8 speed Chorus.. Now in the proces of finding something suitable Campagnolo 10-speed to pick up cheaper during winter..

^^ That's a special Champion Mondial edition for the 120th anniversary of Gazelle.. Its 953 if my memroy serves me right, but on the seattube it says in awful font stainless steel 931.. So probably Reynolds 931..

^^It's a ^rawed-up MKM TT Ultimate: http://www.classicrendezvous.com/British_isles/MKM/MKM_main.htm

I'd like a Takhion.. Do you maybe have one of those there in Poland?
