Bloody hell Spotter. You have made me giggle like a school girl over last page. Best yet I say.

badly listed but has a suicide shifter! could go cheap

Well if it was Gorgeous Baby Blue® then the asking price would be fair enough. Normal Gios blue is so mainstream.

Is it a genuine Gorgeous Baby Blue®

That's how we rolled back in the day, although it looked better with Modolo Kronos levers

kronos levers with deltas...

I agree, people should be able to make abit of money out of a bargain. But using the same photo's as the ebay sellers seems well dodge. Could it be that the ebay seller wasn't happy with the highest bid so won the auction using an alias and is now posting here for a price that they are happy accepting? Also most people on the forum sell things for the amount they paid, whereas doubling your money on a sale is naff.

nice avatar though.

I think East End Images Tommasini lopro with C Record groupset should be in there.

apart from the slack chain, curly red brake cable (wtf?), and mismatched tyres

Its a wire for a computer wrapped around the break cable.

Thanks for all the responses.

I think I'm going to go with Tune hubs on KinLin rims as Smallfurry suggested. I really like Tune components so might put in a big order and get matching stem and seatpost. Seems a shame not to really. I also like the exclusivity of using these components.

Thanks for all the responses guys. The next question is best lacing/spoke count pattern. Don't expect the wheels to be bomb proof. Am I better off with more spokes with radial front and ls radial rear or less spokes with a cross or two? has anyone tested this to see what produces best results?

Cheers

I'd rather something that rode well then was correct to the rest of the groupset. Its not really a weight weenie bike, as its got Delta's and built on a steel Nago frame, but I would like as lighter a set possible whilst still looking classic.

budget isn't really an issue, but I don't want to be paying zipp money. Oh and have to be clinchers, but thanks anyway dmczone

9 speed and I would prefer cassette, but wouldn't mind freewheel

I'm building up a classic racing bike, got an early 90's Colnago with Delta brakes, and most of a c record groupset. I'd like to build up a wheelset with box rims small flange hubs etc. Does anyone know the lightest rim/spoke/hub combo? I have no preference towards brand or freewheel/cassette. I am about 12 stone and work as a bicycle mechanic so having to true the wheelset every once in a while isn't a problem...

Cheers in advance
