'What kind of thought processes are going through the head of someone like that?'

None .

Absolutely none.

She will come a cropper one day...

Ok dude I know nothing.

I watched bits of it (windowed) so wasn't with it all the time.

Come on down now.

The voices within.

"Do it!"

"Don't do it!"

Which Raleighs?

Sir Walter's

Sagan and Contador would have been a great double.

It's a pity that no-pull wheelsucker from Arse-tana took the stage and the seconds from Bertie.

Sagan... a 22% penultimate climb and he still beats them all!

I wonder how Peter would have controlled his hair in the days of no helmets? A Laurent Fignon pony tail? or perhaps an Alessio del Bosco Chinese plaited pig-tail thingy?

This. And the GCN guys.

And Bob 'Bobke' Roll.

Are these all from your own collection?

Chaps,

I have a Power2Max S version. It's coupled to a Rotor 3D+ crank system and looked at via a Garmin Edge 520.

Question is I have it set to show L-R balance is this considered to be accurate? sometimes my legs can be out by as much as 8% (54-46) according to the readings.

I do have uneven leg strength exacerbated by a Patela twinge last November which is only just receding.

Look like my size.

That chainring, so big, so delicate looking.

Circus bike?

When I looked into this before, I also got different answers: either replace the whole steerer (which is what Winston has done) or cut the threaded section off and replace with an unthreaded section.

Weather willing I shall be picking up my newly steerer tubed replaced forks from Winston on Monday.

He did say that unsurprisingly the chrome will be buggered, although I'm hoping that's just at the crown area.

Thanks for that.

Is that a Cannondale crankset with Campagnolo Record.

It's not black enough though.

Nice, nice. Just needs correct brake levers to match the rest of the gruppo and some nice yellow or sky blue bar tape.

Oh, and some sort of foot interface...

Is big. I added the geometry all data there.

If you just take a tape measure and measure the tubes and tell us the result you may well have sold it by now.

So measure the top tube from the center of the head tube to the center of the seat tube. then measure from the middle of the bottom bracket to the top of the seat tube, Finally measure the height of the head tube.

These are the dimensions that people need to make an informed decision on.

Until you need to change the BB Bearings

Easy peasy.

Pull 'em off, drift 'em back on 5 minute job.

Or go with Rotor's crankset system.

My vote would be Campagnolo 2015 -> Chorus or Record 11 speed (mechanical) Chorus being good value.

Sell it on...

White.

It looks better with the Precisa.

I have a carbon straight legged fork that I put on one of my masters also, never like it all, the ride was ugly. In the end I put back on the Precisa and it was like riding on silk in comparison.

I couldn't understand why this should be the case the angles were the same but upon measuring the two forks the carbon one was longer by about 15mm or so. Dunno if that would affect things much or maybe it's the materials?

Eddy Merckx once that weight was not so important but handling and comfort were more critical or something like that.

I absolutely adore these old raleighs.

A bike Porn Founding phrase page 1 ; )

Raleigh what? Chopper? Grifter?

Riddle me this people!

I still running an ahead to quill adaptor, however the quill adaptor have a bit of a neck that show the gap between the stem and headset.

What quill adaptor out there that almost hid that gap completely?

What I find is that transition between the underside of the A-head stem and the top of the headset looks odd when using a quill stem adapter.

Quill headsets are usually narrow or rounded off on the top lock ring because that's how they are.

But if one could obtain a wide flat (low stack) top lock nut then it would flow better visually with the A-head stem, don't you think?

But the weather is so bad... :(

Weather in London is awful today as well.

I want one of those Look KG 243 in 59x58cc size.

I'd like to obtain a few of those Campagnolo decals, whack 'em on all my top tubes just to sock it to the Sheepmano crowd.

Preferred the white saddle.
