Nevermind the chainring, I want that front light for my Raleigh.

Every time I ride it, people think I stole it.

I though chicks would dig it. They still run.

The bike actually had a male twin, and he ran away, the bum.

I'm going to a church auction Friday night where two Panasonics much like this are going up for sale.
My road friends are not going. Maybe I'll get lucky (on a bike).

Hey Gary,

I will post a few more shots of some of my bikes as I get to them - maybe a group shot at some point. Just working on a Baines Whirlwind at the moment and when that one is done I will put some pics up.

Those are Sakae randonneur bars and they have a little upsweep at the stem and a nice flair at the end.

Yeah, I see it now, the angle of the pic makes it hard to tell that the bend is symmetrical to both sides.

And looking over at my Moto, which just happens to be sitting in the living room so I can look at it, I see it has a similar upsweep but not to the same degree... or that could just be the way the light is hitting them, I'm too lazy right now to walk over to check.

Hey here's my '84 Schwinn Super Sport. It rides wonderfully. It's nice not to be riding fixed all the time, too. The cranks tend to make a "click, click, click" when I really torque it. Gonne have to investigate that. Other than that, I love it. I bought it singlespeed and the shop put on some gears for me so it's kind of a mish-mash of parts.

eBay has 27 x 1 1/4 whitewalls, same vendor has them from 29.00 to 47.00. The cheaper ones are used.
Good luck on the colored cable housings.

I've been posting this all over the place but I'm really happy with it.



It's a '92 Serotta Colorado II, full Dura Ace, 8spd STI, Mavic Open 4CDs. Was hanging in the garage of an ex-crit racer for 11-12 years before he decided to let someone else have fun with it.

I won some 64-40 Cinelli Giro d'Italia bars w/ a 100mm 1A stem to replace the 63-40s and 125mm Specialized stem-- a bit stretched out at the moment, though not painful by any means.

Favori-Ellis-Briggs fully dressed

New Stud added to Chuckster's stable. Finally the Favori is dressed and ready to go out on the town. Wow! this is bike is tight, look at the wheel spacing at the down tube. An incredible frame from the Ellis-Briggs folks in England. DRESSED TO KILL!

Thought I would put up my newly restored Peugeot. It got a new paint job and decals along with a few other things. No I am not throwing some deep V's on it. It's safe.

Where did you get your decals and what other years do they make them for?

+1 on Greg's work. No trouble with communication, but I know he was on holiday most of last month.

The communication problem was no big deal. I will be doing business with him again.
