    Some people don't value vintage bicycles as much as we do. They sometimes sell what we would give our left arm for, for pennies. Or they may even throw them on the trash pile! Show us your screamin good deals, and the bikes you've saved from the compactor. Yes, make us all jealous, it only...

    Wow! I just might be able to store another 25 bikes, but how to transport them? I'd have to rent a u-haul. Let me talk to my wife about this. If it's stuff like English three speeds, I might be able to make a profit on them. People around here want commuting bikes.

    How might I undo this new CV interface? I'm finding the forum very difficult to use and I'm greatly unhappy with it. I'll pay the membership fee to have the old interface back.

    Lately we have seen more than a few sales types of postings in the Classic & Vintage forum. While we are a bit more forgiving when it comes to trades, barter, request for (or notices of) PMs (or sent) there is a limit. All for sale postings have to be done in the Market Place forum, and yes,...

    I'm trying to upgrade a Vitus 979 with some lighter wheels. I'd like to build some wheels but am having trouble finding a quality 120mm hub. Any ideas besides Ebay? In case you don't know, this bike is aluminum tubing glued at the lugs, so even respacing a little bit is out of the question. The...

I have read other threads about cleaning out the SA hub and oiling it, but haven't seen much about what to do for the BB - I am inclined to take the bottom end apart and clean/grease it...

    I think it has to be undisputed that, from a fit and performance standpoint, bike size is very much a matter of personal choice. It is a functional consideration and I have no more patience for those self-appointed experts who view fit as a matter of style -- whether low, no spacers road bike...

    I've always loved looking at Colnagos and have found them to be among the most beautiful bikes on the road.

    Just finished putting the crowning touch on it today, a set of silver SKS road bike fenders. It started as a mutt from the flea market, and a quick look at the headbadge said 1984. The decals were long gone, as so many Schwinns of that era seemed to be plagued with. I searched ebay and was...

    So I just recently learned that Serotta is out of Saratoga Springs, NY. Seeing as how Upstate is near'n'dear to me heart (Ithaca, really), I'd like to start obsessing on finding a good old Serotta and of course love some visuals to inspire the notion. :rolleyes:

Upon further investigation we might have some capatability issues. Here are the components that are on the bike. I know an...

    So, Who has added a Specialites TA 42 tooth tripleizer to a '72 Campagnolo Super Record Crankset? Did it require a new BB or Derailers? I'm considering a 49, 42 & 34 chainring combination on a 13-19 5 speed freewheel.
