Has anyone used Newbaums bar tape? Is it worth double the price of Velox/Tressostar et al?

From what I’ve read, of pretty biased reviews, it seems like good stuff but I’d rather get some unbiased ones (insofar as that’s possible)

As title, frame is 58.5cm ctc both seat and top tube. Looking to pick up a bike box near Kennington/Oval/Walworth

Splitting this bike up, already have a buyer lined up for the groupset so selling the Frame and Forks, Saddle, Stem and Handlebars for £900 ono. Message for shipping quotes

Frame has been repainted with the old crest at some point by a previous owner which is reflected by my choice of handlebar and stem, the frame itself is from 1985 hence the flying C in the seat stay and forks. Columbus SPX was used for professional racing teams, it is better suited to larger frames than SLX.

Saddle is NOS.

Pictures are of the bike built up, I haven't disassembled yet because I want to make sure everything does sell first. Message for more photos.

I am selling this, if anyone is interested just drop me a message

Hi all,

Looking for a 60-62cm bike, suitable for 6’4 rider. Budget is around £200 mark, but there is some slight room for manoeuvre. Geared, not fixed.

I’m helping a friend source one for her bf’s birthday, so need to try and wrap things up before February.

Hoods arrived today, so I'm pleased to say the build is finished. Think I will try to sell before January (and the madness Brexit will bring to shipping).

Black, matching the saddle and cables. Not a massive fan of the gum

Detailed close ups

Two weeks to the first post and the bike is now complete (just waiting for some Campag brake hoods to arrive from Serbia).

Tyres arrived too yesterday, have inflated them and stuck them in a cupboard to stretch out. Have had Conti's before and they were a pain to mount. Today has been a day of arrivals - NOS Cinelli Volare saddle from Malta and a new KMC Z8.3 EPT chain. Should be ready to build everything up tomorrow.

Spent yesterday cleaning up the handlebars I bought from Italy, lots of old tape which took some shifting - used WD40 and a kitchen non-scratch wire brush. Some slight rust on the bolt of the stem came off easily and the cockpit looks brand new

Tufo tape on the Nisi rims awaiting the arrival (tomorrow hopefully) of a set of Conitental Podium tubular tyres, can anyone help me identify the model of the rim?

The Regina Extra BX 6 speed looks lovely, was told its a rare Oro finish and basically NOS.

That would make sense, cheers

I think they're 42cm with 40 ctc measurement, the seller's english wasn't too great. If they do end up being too small, I'll replace them. I'm fairly skinny anyway, so they'll probably be fine

I wasn't sure if it was original paint or not due to the mix of Flying C and older Crest details - does anyone know any better? Also I'm not sure about the ovals on the front of the headtube as seen in #3 and #5

Further photos

Having sold my 1984 Colnago Super, I'm reinvesting the funds made from it into another Lockdown project. Having scoured eBay and FB groups for a while this Cinelli SC frame caught my eye (60x58), managed to save about a hundred on it. The listing said it was also from 1984 so I've obviously got some latent Orwellian thing going.

With the help of @retrodicorsa I've got a hold of a partial pat.84 Super Record groupset (the frame came with a Campag Chorus headset and a Cinelli bottom bracket). I've got a Cinelli cockpit on its way from Italy, a 100mm Cinelli Milano Oval stamp stem and a set of Cinelli 40cm handlebars with the classic crest stamped, and a Cinelli Volare saddle coming from Malta. I'll update photos when they arrive and the final build.

Will PM you now

Hi all,

I'm looking for a partial Super Record groupset for another lockdown project.

Items needed:

• SR Chainset - 172.5 or 175mm
  
• DT shifters (if anyone has any of the curved aero/crono ones then do let me know)
  
• 27.2mm Seatpost
  
• Braze on FD
  
• RD (ideally pat.84/5)
  
• Brakes levers and callipers (ideally with black hoods)
  
• Tubular wheels with Campag hubs - not too fussed on rims, ideally with freewheel and tyres but not a clincher
  
  

Also, if anyone has a Cinelli Volare saddle in Black then please let me know

Bought for housemates bike, they don't fit, so selling to recoup some cash. One set still packaged, others completely fresh, just no packaging.

£6 + postage (will send large letter so not much)

Thanks for your help guys, now I need to shift the other set of brake blocks I've bought

Thanks for the link, they look suitable

Have ought two differing sets of brake blocks for my housemate's Ridgeback, neither have fit so now I need to try and identify the originals. Below are some photos, if anyone can help it would be great. The bike has Shimano Deore gears and Shimano brake levers, but nothing identifying the cantilever brakes.

Also looking for Pedal Spanner PW-3

Looking for Park Tool Cable Cutter CN-10 and Square Taper Crank Puller CCP-22 . Postage to London SE17. Sensible prices please, trying to save some money on RRP.
