What type of brake levers (do you know yet?) would these go on? If you can latch hold of Weinmann or Dia Compe levers, you can get your LBS to order these from Dia Compe (they are the same shape).
I've seen Cane Creek non aero hoods but are there still Dia Compe ones being sold? |
Anyone have a Viscount BB spindle?
Got lots of stuff to trade...... |

Channel locks with a light touch ought to work just fine.

I do that all the time, but I wanted to let someone else say it, lol. I haven't found any of them to be really tight, and smaller pairs of vise grips teeth match up pretty well. Sometimes the cassettes seem stuck, but spin it backwards briskly while leaning the wheel toward the drive side. They can be gummy sometimes too, in that case just give it a steady pull while twisting your hand slightly counterclockwise.,,,,BD

Looking for a set of Shimano DT shifters. 7 speed index rear, and friction front. Doesn't have to be perfect, just functional and not covered in rust/corrosion. I am building my Schwinn Tempo frame up as a nicer beater bike for a 150 next April. The only megarange freewheel I have is 7 spd, and here I sit surrounded by 6 spd index shifters, lol. Should be a cool looking ride, using the Cinelli stem and bars, and doing a mild paint touchup. The rest will be pure dependability/functional.
Edit: found a set at Nashbar. I also could have SWORN I counted 5 clicks on the shifter. I think it has a 7speed already?? It went through all the gears, and there was a click left once it got to the megarange gear. I haven't done the long cage swap yet. I have a couple of Deore setups with triple rings, so I think I'm set for the moment. Thanks to all who responded. |
/\ Would you happen to have some sora or older ergopower shifters? I will pull my DT's off for some sort of a trade. No rust, from a exage 400ex groupset. I can provide pictures.
Also... is there any chance of anyone having a Raleigh USA Supercourse technium fork? Grey? I now have a slightly torqued fork thanks to a car-induced collision with a tree. |

If you want to use some of those 6 speed shifters you have surrounding you, I have a new 6 speed megarange freewheel... mounted but never ridden. Don't really need anything now, but I am willing to pay it forward to a regular like you if you are willing to go 6 speed. ... LD |

Thanks, anyone have a shop suggestion for this in NC?
http://www.bikeforums.net/showpost.p...4&postcount=28 http://www.bikeforums.net/showpost.p...2&postcount=31 I reread your post and hadn't noticed "Technium" the first time. I assume, however, they are steel forks. If they are aluminum, they're toast. |

Can you see how the top half of the forks are lined up, but near the end they are not? The right side is bent back from the left. It was hard to photograph but i've grabbed several people out of the hall to look and confirm.

Thanks guys, the fork is steel, maybe it's repairable. I think I may just create a Frankenstein and convert to carbon threadless fork, os bars/stem, and sora brifters. The idea of a steel/aluminum/carbon bike is attracting me.
but no worries to the classics... I've got a 79 super grand prix thats getting fit with campy |
Wanted: 130BCD chainrings either 53X39, 52X42 or 52X40/39, anything- as long as they arent bio-pace or any oval type, don't mind if they are used either, as long as they arent badly worn!
|
Wanted: Mattress saddle/sprung seat, or something appropriate for a prewar lightweight roadster. Also looking for North Roads style handlebars for said roadster (Columbia Sports Tourist prewar)
PM if you have any of these items, thanks. |
Would love to find a single bare black 80's? Rigida 700 rim. I have a set, but found out recently there's a dent/hop in the rear one. I don't know if it can be corrected, but it's also worn to the silver, and is pretty homely. Or, if you have one with a Maillard(non helico) hub, I would be interested. Looking for used but not worn to silver if possible. New is good if the price is right?,,,,BD

Box I guess? Your standard older 700's. They're narrow and have a gently rounded face. They also have eyelets. Almost exactly like an older Trek Matrix style.,,,,BD

Snagged this at a yard sale at a price I couldn't refuse.
It needs a fork. '79(?) Headbadge# 3119, single speed Sting-Ray. Correct color not really important, I'd actually prefer a red one. Reasonable $$$'s and undying gratitude offered http://mysite.verizon.net/tegants/sting.jpg |

aprox 68cm custom or very nice lugged steel frame, preferably with eyelets for fenders/racks. Age or country of origin is not really an issue. Thank you!
