@ciocc72 you could try contacting this seller and see if they will accept a (much) more sensible price! http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/181321880390?nav=SEARCH

Thanks Chris but I've realised these pedals aren't really suitable without cleats, as it's my commuter I'm going with some mks gr-9s instead

Thanks TGR nice resource, think these are going to end up too expensive though

I'm interested in these pedals if anyone can pair some clips with them ?

Thanks WjPrince , has anyone got a set of clips for these ?

Hi

Looking for some aero style pedals with clips in good condition , ideally campag but would also look at shimano 600 or similar. Clip size medium/large

Cheers

Cheers, I did try a dark brown rolls saddle but didn't think it went . May try some black hoods once these wear out. Unfortunately not sure how long the anodizing will last on the sidewalls !

Took the frame to Argos Saturday morning who were able to drill out the rear bridge in the drill press, so glad I didn't attempt it myself ! This meant I could start building!

busy day of assembling yesterday, pretty much there

Took the bike out for a spin today, it rides beautifully , really responsive and solid feel.

I was really surprised how well the monoplanars stop, I was expecting much less, more akin to a standard single pivot. . With modern levers and the kool stop pads I've fitted to the front they feel as good as dual pivots to me , plus they just look beautiful! Perhaps an 80's single pivot would be more fitting, but at the at the end of the day this is a commuter not a show bike, I want to be able to feel safe and using outdated inferior technology just seems crazy to me.

The Campag Cranks turned out to have dodgy pedal thread so I have used the Sugino Mightys. They don't match the rest of the Campag stuff but I still think they look and ride great. Now in two minds whether to polish them as the anodizing is still pretty good..these cranks do look great when polished though (these aren't mine)..

I would also really like some black cage Italian quill pedals to replace the MKS AR-2's I'm running but they're comfortable enough for now, they spin really nicely after a regrease as well.

Still need some white electrical tape to replace the branded fizik finishing tape. Also waiting for new gumwall tyres to arrive , these Michelins are on their last legs. Will post some more pics in better light when I'm happy its finished.

So a fair mis-match of parts on here, purists may sneer but I don't care, its my first proper build and I am just loving the ride. For the first time my bike just fits me like a glove . Its a world away from the relaxed plodding feel of my gas pipe Gitane. Plus I had great fun building it. What started out as a parts bin winter commuter may well end up a keeper!

Thanks Chris , £25 is about my max at the moment, this build is costing more than I estimated ( no surprise there !)

Hi

Looking for some quill pedals with black cages- campagnolo or copies , ideally italian

Cheers

love that paint scheme , its a beaut, great job

ps looking for a set of black cage Italian quill pedals in good nick like these if anyone has some

Budget of around £20 Campag is probably out but Gipiemme etc would be ideal

cheers

A few deliveries today means I can finally start building !

new bearings for the headset, thought the old ones looked ok till I saw these

Turbo Saddle - its a reissue but the leather 1980 version . Bought the pleather white version from Wiggle a few months back then noticed these leather ones on their website- they did a straight swap so got it for less than 20 ! never had a vintage one but this looks well made .

Bar tape , this will be the last thing to go on!

on to the build:

New bearings in headset, Bars and stem on

Tried this Miche post from the parts bin with it but have decided it doesnt really suit the bike, going with the Campag post instead

Great to see it start coming together - still trying to decide whether to use the Athena cranks or The Sugino Mighty. I guess the Sugino is more period correct but the Athena suits the other components better. Both have roughly the same chain line so that's not an issue. thoughts anyone? I think I prefer the Sugino, plus the Athena is quite badly scratched

Last issue to resolve - the fork is drilled for recessed brakes, the frame is nutted. I would drill out the brake bridge but the existing hole is slightly off centre so i'm worried drilling will ruin/weaken the bridge. I'm taking it to Argos on Saturday so they can have a look.

At the moment I have the Monoplanars on the wrong way round, but Im not that happy with them fixed this way , not sure how secure the rear brake is on the fork due to the short mounting bolt. The other option is to run some nutted period correct Single pivots or nutted tektro dual pivots ,using one of these on the fork

Yep i think thats the answer or just use nutted. Im taking it to argos this weekend to see if they are happy to drill it, if not ill look for new brakes

alternatively i could try one of these converters from SPA , has anyone used these before?
