I would run my hand up and down that seat tube till the paint wears off. The Colnago doesn't even have to pay me.

I love the fluted tubing.

Another Leader. I got it together, took it for a short ride, and suddenly the NC drought broke and the sky opened up and lo, there was brought forth upon this land a massive ****ing deluge. :mad:

We use the air compressor at the shop, but if it's being occupied for a flat or for a tune up we use alcohol with a spritz top. I highly doubt many people have air compressors readily available in their homes.

We only ever used rubbing alcohol. Dip a butter knife in it, rub it on the inside, the grip will pop right on, and dries in an hour or so.

+1 for rubbing alcohol.

Working at a shop also give you the air compressor technique.

A floor pump can do the same thing as an air compressor, just a little slower.

Straws 10-25-07 02:37 PM

I'll just take them to my frame shop. We have an air compressor there.

for people that work in a shop, this sounds weird, but try it. If you've been on your feet for hours try shooting the nozzle into your shoe. It feels awesome.

I don't know if I should ask what you're going to do with the front wheel on that Colnago. I'm scared of what the answer might be...
