Seatposts are undersized to provide extra clearance in the seat tube clamping area.
Any of the cheap, Ebay-sourced 25.6mm Chinese/Taiwanese posts should measure about the same 25.51mm as the one that I bought for my Steyr.
I did find that I had to file away a couple of brass drips from inside of the seat tube lug area using a few swipes of a half-round file.


I later bought a similar 25.6mm post for my Steyr-built 1968 SEARS TEN-SPEED, it measures 25.52mm.

Want shiny bit for the end of a pump

Just got a nice colour pump to match a bike I painted, but t's missing the aluminium bit that covers the bottom.




Doesn't have to be a Primus, I'm pretty sure one of the bits from an Impero will fit - so I'm looking for either that or a broken/useless pump from which to salvage one.

It actually works fine as is, but the bike it's to go on is quite blingy, and so it would suit:

Thanks for the suggestion and sharing your experiences. I'll take a look. Still would prefer the old style seat pin if one's available.

I might have one (it would be Silca if I find it) but...you're in Canada, right?
The shipping, even for such a small and lightweight parcel, could kill the thrill!
But if you don't find one from somebody in country, LMK and I'll make a search

Campy Record rear hub dust cap..

Anyone have a spare Campagnolo Record hub (rear, small-flange) dust cap? My calipers are cheap Harbor Freight junk, so I'm not sure the measurements are 100% accurate, but...
OD 27.8mm
ID 17mm
Thx!

Folks,
If you punch in my name three page of references about me come up, and I am sure my phone number is in that jumble of stuff. I am a Professional Golfer that specializes in golf club making and golf club fitting. Most of the organizations that I have belonged to as a professional have my information posted on their websites. I know that BF doesn't like to show names and such, but I am pretty easy to find on the net so I may as well just put it out there. Smiles, MH

ISO early campy ergo group. 8 speed, give or take. Must include brifters/FD/RD. Brakes/HS a plus. Wheelset only if you're in the SF Bay area and can meet. Still early in the build, so the exact group is still up in the air. No need for show pieces, but decent rider condition.

Have lots of parts/frames to trade, plus I work at a co-op and can get some random stuff if need be.

There's a trick to making a shim from flat stock.

You need a lip on one end to bear on the top of the seat-tube, to keep it from falling down.

The trick is to fold the long edge of the strip - twice usually unless the stock is thick - before forming it into a circle.

With the lip on the outside, of course.

Ha, I seem to have more attention for helping others than sorting out my own junk Mad Honk . Anyway I just checked and my bolt is a bit different -- just "Campy -- Made in Italy" on it. Happy to offer it if anyone can use it to make a pair.

WTB - 96mm OLD front hub

Not too particular about brand as long as it’s 36h (preferably HF) and doesn’t say “Schwinn Approved”. Thx!

Get a 100 old hub and remove the washers between the locknuts and the cones - they aren't necessary and they'll be close to 2mm each.

To add to what @oneclick said: dunno what you're willing to spend, but this eBay vendor lists a NOS 100mm high-flange Sunshine front for <$37 including shipping (sales tax extra). Vendor has "Make Offer" enabled, so might be amenable to some negotiation.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/385078973742

Shipping quote was to my location, so shipping might be a bit cheaper to yours.

Have not done business with this vendor, but their ratings do look decent (99.8% positive).

Best of luck in finding something you can use.

@RustyJames, are you looking for QR or solid axle? I have several of the latter, Normandy HF, yours for the cost of shipping. Let me know.

I get 4,5 and 6 ball tip allens, I get little ratchet wrenches, sometimes ratchets, occasionally I'll get sockets in 10,11,12,13 sizes.
If you'd like something PM me with where you want it sent, and what you'd like
