You've already fallen for one of the advertised talking points
-
Badly listed colnago v1-r with ultegra/da di2. Buy if you like your brakes in weird places.
-
Thank you. I had somehow managed to angle up around the bolt. Sorted and indexed this morning, managed to get in a last of the good weather ride.
-
Unfortunately I've tried that option. Running through all the gears again I've noticed that I'm going from one end of the casette to another with 8 shifts instead of 9.
-
I've put together a 10 speed campag chorus groupset but cannot index the middle sprockets on the cassette the chain always slips here. Only thing not new are the chainrings. Any ideas?
-
I think my cage may be twisted, the chain slips on the jockey wheels. I changed the jockey wheels but the chin line seems all over the shop in the cage.
-
Lovely. Certain things remind me of songs or catchphrases that then get stuck in my head. I'd be singing crocodile rock while riding round on that.
-
I have a shimano freehub that should be suitable for these wheels if they are post 2017.
-
A gios barn find, however the gios looks like it was ridden by the farm animals.
-
I got a quote from mike at https://www.vintagecyclesport.com/ for a gios, quote he gave me was pretty reasonable as he's an independent. He did say chroming has gone up in costs as not many people still want to do it. Can't comment on end result as was trying to organise it when my daughter was on the way and I've dropped the project for now. Seemed like a nice guy though, if you're looking.
-
Finished the bulk of the build, few little finishing touches to do. The bolt holding the seat rails doesn't nip up tight enough and the saddle tilts forward or back a bit depending on weight placement. Managed only to get out very quickly to the bike shop and a pint.

Cool Alan Michel frame, must enjoy shades of brown.

For road rash that's not too deep cavillon barrier film is excellent. I normally wear a tegaderm/opsite dressing first and then whack some cavillon on. Reapply every 24 hours or when needed. You can layer it as well and will protect from water ingress to a point. Like spray on skin.
-
If the ultra low friction were 11 and 10 speed compatible and the new 12 speed ones are 12 and 11, does that mean 10 as well?
-
I used one of these codes twice during their black friday sale so presume it will work until it doesn't.

Pictures would be good
-
No problem. As and when. I'm doing two builds at the same time and I have some tyres to go on for now but will probably want to try out tan walls at some point. Thanks.
-
Thanks for the offer but 23c are gonna be too large for the frame.
-
I saw it yesterday, went in and spoke to them. Cool guys, only been open a couple of weeks, plans to have a coffee room and build up stock, do servicing and stuff as well. Think they're looking to employ someone extra in near future. It's on my commute, if you're there between 7-7.30 we've probably raced each other off the lights.

Terrible photography, cool bike

I have a chorus rd in this style. I'll get some pictures in a bit, as I think it may have a few scratches. There's different pull ratios between pre 2015 11 speed and post 2015 11 speed. Pre will be the silver carbon mix, so just make sure you get the right shifters to match.
