I am looking for a early 90's Trek headbadge, Ebay yielded nothing. My bike is a 91, and it would be nice to have the same style, but I would even consider newer or older styles.
I have some misc. parts available for trade, or cash.

The nipples are showing significant sign of rust and I would recommend that the spokes be replaced. Other than that, the hub and rim seem quite salvageable.

I have Avocet/Ofmega 175mm crank arms (144mm BCD); drilled for triple rings:
http://os2.dhs.org/~john/avocet175.jpg
I need similar quality/condition crank arms in 165mm, Zeus chainrings 36T - 50T, 144mm BCD chainrings 43T or 47T. TA 5-pin outer chainrings 42T - 50T. TA 5-pin crankarms 165-170mm.
I'm not sure they're drilled for triples. It looks more like drilled for appearance. Wouldn't a triple mount involved the back of the crank arm, and involve the middle ring?

Trying to sell my Ciocc. This is the bike I almost got scammed on trying to sell on Chicago CL. 56cm seat tube, 55cm top tube. I would trade for a similar bike 58-60cm, sell outright, or do a partial trade for a steel bike of the latter size with good tubing. I would sell/ trade for the frame and fork, with the Shimano STX headset and Campagnolo Centaur BB that's are installed. Both were new when I installed them. I've ridden the bike about 20 miles since. If you want a full listing of the parts on the build, send a PM.

1. Yes, but with the right size spacer and bolt you could screw into those holes.
2. No, why should it?
I wouldn't be a bit surprised if it is drilled for different BCDs for more options... but you could be right also, my first instinct was cosmetic... but it's no different than an old record triple.
I'm just trying to figure it, visualize how it would work.

Nope, it's drilled and tapped (at the factory) for triple rings in either of two different BCDs 102mm (outer holes) or 74mm (inner holes). The rings are attached using special stand-off bolts. I have one of these (170mm arms) on my commuter bike:

That's very cool. I have an Ofmega crank I'd love to go triple with, a Mistral, but drilling it would ruin the appearance. I've seen some conversions to triple that use a middle ring that has extensions in towards the spindle to hold a small ring, but I've never seen that setup. I would think there's a lot of sheer stress on those standoff bolts, but it's obviously working. Thanks so much for the heads-up.

You're right, the "Mistral" is too cool to drill. IIRC, there are some adapter rings that allow a smaller ring to mount on 144mm BCD crank but I don't remember who mkes them.

If you are looking for hoods for early 80's style levers, the standard DiaCompe hoods fit well. You just have to wiggle carefully to get them past those huge adjusters. Not quite as soft and gummy as the originals, but much easier to find.

What era of gran compe? There are at least a couple hood types I am aware of. I have a nice set of black hoods from the 1980s non-aero version....
well why don't I just get to the point and post a photo....type 204.7
suitable for type 204 levers... i.e. any on this page:
but I believe they are a good fit for type 200 as well as I have tried them in the past...which includes nuovo gran compe not shown on that page.
Really an instructive response Cyclotaine; I'd be willing to take them off your hands for cash or search my parts bin for something you might be seeking. I couldn't find an exact match for the Gran Compe levers I have on my Nishiki Olympic 12 and my Centurion Turbo; the levers are pretty much identical but the set on the Nishiki have got a slotted barrel that comes out the top and houses a cable tension adjuster while the set on the Turbo just have the more common loose reducing ferrule. In the photos below you can see the black Dia Compe hoods are a pretty good fit on the Turbo, while the newer and clearly lower quality Cane Creek tan hoods on the Nishiki are a poor fit.

I had to check my wheel and tire pile. I have a pair of Wolber Invulnerables that have never been installed but I've stretched them out and put them on rims with no glue or tape. However, when I removed these from the package last summer each of the tires had a small crack in the tread that ran from side to side right at one of the inner folds in the package where neither seller nor buyer could see until the tire was actually removed. If you think you could use them, we can work something out. I thought about trying to fill/patch them with latex sidewall restorative but haven't messed with them yet.

No idea on the age of the tires, but they were in the factory plastic when I bought them last summer. As for the discontinuity--I love them big words like that--I'd say it goes completely from side to side with a series of smaller, shallower discontinuities along side and probably to a few millimeters in depth maybe right down to the threads. I'm getting ready to head out to my pt job now but could snap a couple of pix later and let you be the judge if you're still interested. Other than the crevasses, the tires are still supple and in nice condition.
yellowjersey does have an absolutely horrible website--according to a friend it's an accurate mirror of the shop--but you can't beat their 3 for $50 price for brand new tubbies and they are great tires, I run several sets.
Looking for a steel touring bike with a 62cm seat tube + and 59cm+ top tube. I only need frame/fork, but would consider a complete bike as well. Needs to be able to take 700c wheels, canti mounts, and full rack/fender mounts as well. Also, needs to have semi-horizontal dropouts. I have a build in mind and finding the frame/fork will be the toughest part.

I'm pretty sure I have a NOS pair of 204.7/P if anyone is interested.
In the photos below you can see the black Dia Compe hoods are a pretty good fit on the Turbo, while the newer and clearly lower quality Cane Creek tan hoods on the Nishiki are a poor fit. (emphasis added by me) I'm surprised to hear that you think the Cane Creek hoods are lower quality, my experience was exactly the opposite. The last couple sets of generic Dia-Compe replacements I got before the switch to Cane Creek were pretty crummy. However, I was quite pleased with the Cane Creek replacements, the rubber is much more substantial and less tacky and it doesn't have that stupid punch-out for suicide levers that seems to tear half the time.
I'm fairly certain that the Cane Creeks are made on the 165 pattern for the common Dia-Compe levers that were found on millions of bikes. Note that the Gran Compe specific hoods have slightly "shorter" bodies. They also aren't designed for the adjuster barrels like the GC hoods, but that problem can be remedied with a razor blade and should help the overall fit substantially.

I've installed at least half a dozen sets of Cane Creek hoods and it is precisely that more substantial rubber that lowers the quality IMHO; if you look at the photos of the Cane Creek hoods I posted you will see a split where the hood meets the bar and this has happened to some extent on every single hood when attempting to roll the hood back on itself enough to properly seat the small piece of bar wrap under the hood which covers the bar clamp. It's a cheaper, lower-grade of rubber with very limited suppleness and flexibility. We certainly agree on the punch-out for suicide levers though.;)

They definitely are more rigid when compared to the older DC hoods, but I find them to be about the same as any modern hood, probably because Tektro manufactures practically everything. The truth is that any hood, regardless of the quality is delicate in this sense. I've never had one split on me, even when I've had to roll them quite far. There are a few things that I find help:
Warm the hoods by soaking in hot (not too hot) water to soften them up.
Go SLOWLY
Flip a minimal amount of the hood over and then pull it back on itself, rather than trying to flip a lot of it over at once. In other words try to roll the edge and peel it straight back on itself as opposed to sticking your finger under it and inverting it. I'm not sure if you'll understand what I mean exactly, but if you can visualize it you'll see that doing it this way minimizes the amount the very outside edge must stretch through.
I'm sure it shortens the life of the rubber somewhat but you can use rubbing alcohol to help slide the hood around on the lever body.
Most importantly: Be Lucky ;)
Replacing hoods is always a stressful job for me :twitchy: Good luck:thumb:

01-13-09, 02:55 PM
...Ultimately, on my vintage restoration piece type rides I use cotton tape an then there is no need to peel the tape back because the prefferred method is to position the levers and then remove them when you get close with the tape and wrap around the clamp. When I am done wrapping I reinstall the lever. It's clean and it allows you to remove the levers without affecting the tape! I start doing this when I was working on my gazelle and waiting for my reproduction campy world logo hoods (worth every penny BTW even if I would actually prefer the rubber to be more rigid).
+1 This is the only way I wrap my bars after seeing it demo'ed on Ray Dobbin's site (http://www.raydobbins.com/molteni_replica/molteni_tip).
cyclotoine, where did you order your reproduction campy hoods?

ISO: short quill stem. Did they make a 60, 70 or 80mm? I am trying to fit int a bike that has a longer TT than I usually ride. A slight ride would be and added benefit.

Yes, there are some even shorter. I've got a 70mm on one of my bikes, a couple of 80's, all Cinelli.
I find older quills even shorter are easily available. The Cinelli's are harder to find.

Nitto makes quill stems with very short reaches. They are readily available. Search or eBay or google, or just check your LBS.
....and it doesn't have that stupid punch-out for suicide levers that seems to tear half the time.
I'm fairly certain that the Cane Creeks are made on the 165 pattern for the common Dia-Compe levers that were found on millions of bikes.
Thanks! You just answered a basic question that I had - 165 (not shown in the 1986 catalog) is probably the lever that I have on my Fuji & Motobecane. The other question I had was whether rubber hoods could be used with safety levers, and it seems that yes, there would be sufficient clearance on the side.
Edit: wait, I'm starting to get it.... The 165 is a 144 base with the substitution of the longer pivot post to accept the accessory safety/suicide lever.

Have a 12-23 Campy cluster on an 8 speed freehub. It's my get-around bike and a little too racey for me. If anyone has a looser cluster or some lower-geared cogs - I'm looking to trade or buy.

Looking for a Campy Shamal 12-HPW (12 spokes) front wheel, 700c, clincher, in nice shape. I only need the front wheel, but will consider a pair (12s or 16s) if that's what you have. Thanks.
