They were next to a box of sky hooks, behind the bolt holes, last time I looked.

I'll be selling a ream of these (that's how I buy them: cheaper in large quantities) along with some vintage left-handed smoke-shifters (yes, the VAR and Campy models!) but not until 04/01...watch this space...;)

When one of my daughters was young, her favorite dishes were pasta with plain on it and rice with plain on it. I would pour the plain on from an empty drinking glass. It was an important ritual for us.

Metric, ISO, or English? I know you can convert between them but I always have decimals left over with no place to put them. I'll need more decimal places if I'm going to go that route.

I used to have a big collection of those but some guy from the Navy came along and confiscated them all.

I keep my extra spoke holes inside my bucket of spare air, but it can be difficult to find them sometimes.

Man, just plain? Some pretty heavy stuff going on in this thread these days...

Like the man in the song said, "Pumped a lotta' plain down in New Orleans..." Yeah, it's just plain heavy.

I am not ISO anything at this time.

I thought it was "pumped a lot of ping," meaning low-grade gasoline..

Right next to the gallon jugs of prop wash and coiled flight line.

I believe it was "pumped a lot of 'tane" meaning octane. Still gasoline though.

Nope: "Plumped a lot of mane" is correct. Guy was a professional mane plumper.
Geez.

Actually, its, Pumped a lot of 'pane down in New Orleans...."The line, "Pumped a lot of pain down in New Orleans" is actually "Pumped a lot of 'Pane," as in propane. He was pumping gas." From Song Facts.com Proud Mary by Creedence Clearwater Revival Songfacts

Propane gas fo' the tankz sittin' side the shotgun house, heatin' and cookin' fewl yawl no.

Looking for some 1 1/4" threadless headset parts - the bits between the top bearing and the stem.

I'm missing the top bearing cap/race and the wedge/shim thing. A spacer or two would help as well.

According to the Sheldon site this size was found on some MTB and tandem bikes and is relatively uncommon. I can send paypal or am open to trades.

Not sure this is the right thread for you. I think those parts actually exist. :P

This is fascinating.

Careful there! Some of us still live in those rural areas where the gas comes out of a tank and the wastewater goes into a tank....
But I'm harmless: I traded in the banjo for a guitar back in the sixties.

I actually had no idea:foo: what John Fogerty was really saying in "Proud Mary", shameful as much as I loved CCR back in the late 60s-early 70s.:eek: Lyrics are something I just let come through, never had truly acute hearing. Probably why my band career was only 3 years long.

Hey guys, I still have my banjo. Don't play it much though, couldn't get good at it anyway.

Throwing it out there...

I'm seeking a front clamp-on "Keirin" brake, for a Sannino Pista I have hanging up. Fork takes an oval fit (as opposed to round).

Looks like this:

I can buy, but would rather help someone get the part(s) they need while I get mine.

Have lots of Shimano bits, some Campy. Mostly 80's-90's stuff to trade.

Check

50 miles without unclipping. Check.
50 miles with perhaps 10 "cars back." Check.
Carry a pump and a spare. Check.
And your own water. Check.

Worn out large (biopace) chainrings
 

Kind of a weird request, but does anyone have a stash of worn out large (46+?) 110 bcd chainrings they're not using? Biopace or round. Looking for a few to grind down to use as diy cheapo bash / chain guards for biopace cranksets, but I think round would work too.

ISO C-Record Era crankset
 

Working on a 7 speed build and would like shield logo C Record, Chorus or Athena cranks.

I have Campy 9 and 10 cranks, a Dura Ace 9 crankset some mtb cranks, a lot of Campy bits, a few Shimano bits, numerous bottom brackets. Let me know what you need.

Also long shot - that little piece with the teeth on the Athena RD that inserts at the hanger bolt. You know that piece that always gets lost or broken.

ISO 80mm length 26mm clamp threadless stem. Prefer shiny silver.

Have variety of 110mm and longer stems. Many other interesting bits.

Hello,I am new member.I found in my garages an old bike Peugeot with serial number Y803 09767.could someone help to found what model it is,and if it worth to restore?

We probably can, but the "for trade" thread isn't the best place to ask. If you want info about the bike, post a new thread here in the Classic & Vintage Forum. If you want to find out what you might be able to sell it for, try posting a new thread in the Classic & Vintage: What's It Worth? Appraisals and Inquiries.

You'll also want to post more info. Pictures are best since there are visual identifiers that are hard to describe, like the font/typeface of a decal for example. But if you can't post pics, give as much information as you can: Number of gears/speeds, brand/type of components like shifters and derailleurs, tire size, paint color, presence of chrome and where, the text on any decals -- especially ones that might identify a tubing type, etc.

Serial numbers on bikes aren't standardized like the VIN on a car, so we can't often tell you much about a bike based on its serial number. Some manufacturers' serial numbers can be interpreted to figure out a build date, but with only a few exceptions, they give no clue about a bike's model.

^^ Especially French serial numbers. I think they were just stamping that week's lotto numbers...
