I need one friction spring (looks like a #6) for a 70's Suntour barcon. My levers are in good condition and I want to avoid purchasing a whole set. Any help appreciated.

Bikes: Too Many

Looking for a silver front rack for an 80's Nishiki touring frame. Trying to avoid buying new because nothing else is new on this bike and it would look out of place.

Found!

62 cm columbus or reynolds 531 lugged steel road frame. Cromoly is OK too. Miyata would be great.

Is 61 close enough?

Does anyone know where I can order or even find keyed washers for a Shimano front axle? (9mm) It's the only thing holding up my wheel build.

See the two seatposts in the photo? They are Campagnolo Victory. I am looking for the longer one of the two. I'm actually looking for a Triomphe post in the longer length, so either model is fine. I think they're the same anyway.

Post-CPSC? I thought that was the pre- length.

Actually, they all vary a little, but according to campagnolo a post CPSC nuovo record BB is 114.5mm for an italian spindle and a record BB is 115.5mm. I don't know what they would vary in overall width by 1mm but they did, apparently. In fact, they had more BB types than they had cranks! gran sport, record, super record and nuovo record. How they came to have different specifications of length is beyond me, especially since nuovo and super arms were exactly the same (as far as I know).

cyclotoine is right and my recollection is mangled. even though the shell is 2mm wider, the spindles for Italian are only 1mm longer both pre and post CPSC, so 115.5 is the one you want.

A reminiscence on another thread, motivates me to see if anyone has a steel fork for a 26"/559mmBSD frame. Steerer needs to be at least 16cm. This is for an old Columbia middleweight, so no canti studs or unicrown forks desired. Thanks.

I think I'm in search of a 21" (or 22, but not 23/24) Schwinn Super Sport or Sports Tourer from the late 60's through mid 70's. Bike, frame, or frame/fork. Rough paint OK, rust less so.

[Edit: Found one! It's in better shape than I was looking for ... and very Orange. I kind of like the color]

Yeah, I thought so too, but remember a 23 that seemed more like a 24... but that was a long time ago.

In the early 70s at least, the Super Sport came in 22" and 24" frame sizes. Here's the 1970 dealer spec from Bob Hufford's site: https://www.geocities.com/sldbdealer/1970/70dlsb08.html

Bikes: '75 Schwinn Paramount P-10, '86 Ritchey Commando, '87 Schwinn Cimarron, '91 Trek 990, '87 Schwinn High Sierra, '73 Schwinn Super Sport, '4? Schwinn New World, '76 Swing Bike.

Maybe it was a 24" that seemed more like a 23"?

They are 22"/24" for the Super Sport and S/S Tourer (and then 22"/24"/26" starting in '72 for the Super Sport and '71 for the debut Sports Tourer). This is measured from the center of the crank to the top of the seat tube, so knock off an inch to get it back to "normal" measurements since the top of the seat tube is about an inch past the top of the top tube. The E/F bikes (Varsity, Continental, etc.) didn't start the "top of the seat tube" measurements until 1971, so those 21" frames magically became 22" w/o any change at all that year.
