A guy in the CR list has generously offered to be a clearinghouse of "orphaned" singles in search of a mate. I don't mean a dating service, this is for folks who have a LH pedal and need a RH, or a RH crank and need the matching LH...in other words any thing that came as a pair but is reduced to unusable singlehood.
How about the same thing here for us in the (much larger) C&V Forum?
I'm already in touch with a guy who might take my RH Stronglight 49D arm and provide me with a Mavic Starfish LH crankarm (something I have been seeking for the past 4 years with no luck)...so it has potential, IMHO.

Items I'm looking for to match my orphans:
--a LH Stronglight mod. 93 (170mm) crank arm
--a LH Stronglight 170mm arm for a 3-pin crankset

Items I'd be glad to send off to meet their mates:

Crank arms:
--a Nervar Star LH crank arm (170mm, English thread)
--a Shimano 105 Hollowtech drive-side arm (FC6501), 170mm
--a Shimano RX100 (FC-A550) drive-side arm, square taper and 170mm; unfortunately, this one has a pedal spindle attached as I've not been able to remove it.

Brakes:
--Shimano Exage recessed rear
--Weinmann 590SQ recessed front

Pedals:
--no name quill pedal, right side, French thread, alloy cage and steel body

Shifters:
--SunTour LD-2800 left-hand/front-derailleur thumbshifter

I can take pics of any of these items if needed.

This would be another sticky?

Okay, I have a LH campy record pedal with strap loop. I want a RH... or I could give it up to someone that has the right and needs the left. We'd have to see who wants a set more.

Well that's not something I can decide, I guess it's up to the mods, right? But I'd appreciate something that maybe had simple columns of
1. orphans you want to keep and are ISO a match, as well as
2. orphans you would give up to a new home to give somebody a pair...in exchange for something, perhaps.
This could include forks needing frames, wheels needing a match, single shift levers, single brake levers, crank arms, pedals, cable clips, calipers...I'm sure there's more than I can think of right off the top...just a more specific "Orphans" category than the existing ISO/WTB, Trade sticky we have, which includes everything.
And of course PICS would be nice.

I have a Sugino 144 BCD right-side Campy lookalike crankarm that I can't identify, doesn't say "Sugino" anywhere, but it's got the S shield with thrre-prong crown logo on backside, along with A-7 (model?), 170 (length) and a 2 and a 5 in circles. I'd either like to find the left-side or get it to someone who needs mine to complete.

I also have two orphaned Simplex retrofriction right-side braze-on type shift levers, that need left-side mates.
I guess I'm basically left-side lacking.

Then there's the old Weinmann 750 caliper I got with my venerable Falcon frame -- it's seeking an equally scruffy 610 mate.

Looks like this will stay just a thread for the time being, so...My Turn:
I have and would like the mate for:
1. RH Mavic Starfish crank, 172.5 with rings, very scratchy (want LH arm in similar or better condition)
2. gone, thanks to cyclotoine:
1. RH Stronglight 49D arm, 170mm (fits TA chainrings) this is the early model with just the word "depose" in the stamping, good condition, some rubbing on backside, French pedal threads. (pics show it with a TA adapter, not included but available separately)
2. Ofmega "Master" small flange front hub, 36º, NOS with skewer. hourglass shaped with oil clip
Pics are in this photobucket album:

I have an early C-record drive-side crank arm engraved Ugo de Rosa, and a left-side arm that is not engraved. The date stamps do not match.

I'd be intrested in matching either to form a complete set to use.

I assume the owner of the DeRosa had a fatigue failure on his original left crank arm, and replaced it with a plain and newer arm. But then when a better upgrade became available (early days of indexing) upgraded the whole crankset.

I have a Suntour Superbe Pro front derailleaur that's in search of a seat tube band clamp to make it whole again. The same band clamp was used on certain Cyclone MkII front derailleaurs too, and can be donors. So, if there's a Suntour band clamp orphan in need of a parent, let me know.

And I wouldn't mind having a 70s era Simplex rear quick release with straight lever. It came originally with the Normandy hub in my avatar pic. Somehow I lost it.

My one big wish is to find a mate for my NOS Zeus drive-side crank, the one that looks like a campy NR copy (Criterium?). The stickler here is that it is a 172.5, not that common in any regards!

I have a bunch of orphaned cranks. In a short search I came up with
three (3) light had first generation Dura Ace cranks, all 170. In that
you only see one side of the bike at a time I am inclined to just get
the new non-drive ones you see on Ebay.

funny, I have everything but the wedge. Last owner was using handlebar tape instead of the wedge.

I don't know if this counts as an orphan, but I have a zeus 2000 brake caliper with a broken cable
anchor bolt. I guess that means I could use a zeus 2000 brake caliper.

It definitely would, I think. It would facilitate the pass-it-around idea; I send mine to yours, you send yours to someone else, and so on.

I'm trying to figure out the best way to do this. Even with an ISO/Have spreadsheet, I'm not seeing a good way to organize the info. If I can figure out a good way to present all items/their owners, I'll post it. Suggestions welcome.

rhm
02-04-11, 10:59 AM
My idea would be that we post what we have, that we're willing to give up. If you aren't willing to give it up, don't post it. I'd organize it by category; pedals, headset bits, BB bits, rims, whatever. I wouldn't consider the value of things; basically we're posting things that are too valuable to throw away but useless without a mate.

That's a "Criterium" crank.

Obligatory spreadsheet database. I added only "have" items at the moment, under the assumption that the item listed is paired with another (and that the other item is missing).

There's a second page for an "ISO" spreadsheet, but nothing is filled in there. I imagine missing bits from components could go there too.

this is great, and many thanks dashuaigeh for making the speadsheet: it's what i was hoping for when I first hatched the vague idea (but had no skill with Excel or whatever).
Now I have to go back to my stash and see if I still have the old orphans.
I'm pretty sure I have a couple more new ones!

EDIT: Updated mine and will continue to add any more I come across...still trying to get the hang of the excel-ish program.
