My Gitane Cyclocross frame arrived. It's steel 80s, 531 and I'm looking for the following:
Stronglight Impact Cranks, 165mm (ideally)
Matching Stronglight Single chain ring (~46T), would like Chain Guards if available.
French threaded Headset & BB - I'd really like the new Velo Orange Grand Cru sealed versions, but will consider other options.
Cross Top Brake Levers (for 26mm bar), and Aero Brake Levers in silver - e.g. Tektro RL726 and Tektro RL520, will consider other options, or a matching set with cantilevers.
San Marco Rolls pref the plain black leather version.
Handlebars 40-42mm, pref Cinelli, with grooves, e.g. Eubios or Giros (nothing too deep)
Single Speed Freewheel Looking for something decent and GC. e.g. Shimano or even White Industries. ~18T.
Maybe some CX-Tyres (32mm) if anyone has any in GC, or winter studded tyres.
That's quite a specific list, but you never know! Plus I'm open to suitable options.
I live in Berlin so you will need to arrange postage. However if I can get the bits I need in London I will try and harrang a friend into picking them up for me and posting them out here altogether.
Cheers!
