Current Projects chat and miscellany

Those parts are going to look great on Ed's BMW Gangsta Track

STAAAHHHHPPP

Thats all that was going through my head last week!!!!!!

Very solid purchase!! Looks snazzy.

Strong page !

New project to start the new page off, could do with silver cranks but i already had those and the wheelset.

Now just on the lookout for a silver 27mm seatpost and a sweeeet rack to put on it!

Nice colnafake pisto ; )

You got less than 12 hours before decision.

Hoy look good, but still a Hoy with a tiny headtube.

BTW, you can get away with -7 on the BMW compared to +7 on the Hoy.

Spotted this going down Putney Bridge road

Thanks, its a colnago super aparently with the deraileur fixtures cut off and a non original fork :(

Will probably remove all the decals at some point though and eventually maybe repaint it as the home made paint job on it atm comes off very easily!

Anybody got any front rack recommendations? Want something flat and silver.

Cool !

Yours has 3 cable guides on the TT. Afaik That means it's either a fake or a really rare 70s colnago. @saarf what do you think?
ed. but the ones with 3 cable guides had clamps afaik.
p.s. could be that I'm wrong, of course :)

more on the subject of 2 v 3 cable guides here: https://www.lfgss.com/conversations/224258/ apparently there are a few with 3 cable guides

This. Do it @Dick

I uses to think 3 guides meant fake, I have seen some originals with 3
the fluted seat stay caps with brazed tt cable guides puts it circa 77 I think

Where are these dumpsters? I never see anything like this!

lug cut-outs look original as well. It was probably the colour in combination with the replaced fork and the 3 guides that gave me a wrong Impression. + I remember reading sth in your article on how to idetify a genuine nag... Anyway, glad to hear @HPx93 scored an original!

It has the Colnago logo cut out of the bb shell and also in a lot of the lugs. Either way I think he got a sweet beater

Most def but there's a special place in hell reserved for people who paint a Colnago like that :D

Ha for sure! With a bit of luck, the original might be underneath

Jump on a plane to Copenhagen. We've even got @Hulsroy here...

@Sig_Arlecchino @saarf

Sadly phil original paint i think will be long gone, the fact that you guys think it might be really rare makes me even more sad that the deraileur hanger has been cut off.

Heres a picture of the bb shell from the seller (on here)

Will probably repaint after winter but i think it will always stay in beater mode due to the chop its had.
