  • That Gautheron is nice! Fade job done by yourself?

    What are those wheels? HF Mack hubs on Miche Pistard rims? Looks cool, especially the front wheel.

  • A friend of mine got it from 2dehands.be last summer.

    The only reference I've found to the Belgian bike shop sticker on the frame is this . Patrcik Degeyter.

    Apparently most likely possibly SL tubing.

  • Can anyone help with some suggestions for my stealth bike project?

    Am after a 10 speed campag compatible wheelset in black, with black hubs, black rims and black aero spokes, probably new and ideally minimal logo unless...errr...black...

    Cheers

  • Hmm yeah, under £300. Not ideal, I know but...

  • Campagnolo Khamsin Asymmetric, new?

  • Destickered Cosmic Elite ticks all the boxes, but you might do better rolling your own, you'll probably get some decent suggestions in the wheel holding thread.

  • Than it's probably the same bike. Sold by a guy from Lokeren (Marc), he has 200 vintage bikes, I guess.

    What is the seatpost diameter? If it's 27 or more, SL is possible.

  • Cheers for that.Will try the wheel building thread too.

    @Carabo, thanks but I have Vento's on my winter bike so looking for something a bit more 'swish' so could afford to go with something like scirocco's or go second hand and get something else.

  • Fulcrum Racing Quattro LG is in budget, all black and fashionably wide. If they had launched them a few months sooner I'd probably have picked them over the DT R24. You'd need to ask somebody who has a recent Fulcrum wheel about how easy they are to de-sticker, but they look like vinyl. There is also a "road wheel recommendation" thread if you want more suggestions of ready made wheels.

  • That Concorde is one of my favourite forum bikes

  • Yep, it's 27.2.
    I try my best not to get bikes that aren't 27.2. Don't like italian or french threads either, but sometimes that happens also.

  • Rack's done. Next up is rear disc tab, then powder coat and rebuilding with mudgaurds. I am thinking about flouro yellow colour, black decals and black saddle.

  • That rack looks neat! Is it custom?

  • Thank you. Yes, I made it myself.

  • Finished this at the end of last year:

  • Get rid of the brown bits and put low profile rims on.
    :/

  • Maybe next time

  • that's the spirit, what don't kill you makes you stronger
    black would have looked nicer imho, saw you gave a tenner for the frame set, I gave 20 euro for this, freecycle wheelset,

    sold it and bought me first colnago
    in 2010

  • also world's tiniest pic

  • Thinking about decals and colours.

    And RAL 1026

  • Beautiful, but technically the sweep goes the wrong way. Designed by the art department, not the engineering department :-)

  • Beautiful, but technically the sweep goes the wrong way.

    Simple solution: put the cranks on the other side!

  • The text also looks elvish.
    I think your missing the original inner ring.
    I checked about a year ago that you get a ~42mm chainline with a 111mm ISO bb.
