Current Projects chat and miscellany

@TM I've been looking a Flite for a while but I can't find one for less than 20€. I don't want to spend more. A guy over here got stolen his Miche Supertype + San Marco Aspide.

I have an old battered flite id sell for like a 15 plus postage

I may interest joss if pbartol isn't.

TM I've sent dakin a pm.

Cool, joss postage should be about a fiver I think if you drop it in a jiffy bag, or wrap it up in binliner and tape ...

Will do PBartol first dibs.

Fitted a Nitto post to Donobro. Post slippage is sorted. Tidy

My favourite Langster around. Looks like you're rinsing it too! I miss mine. It was the perfect throw about bike. So light and twitchy.

Thanks!
Agreed, amazing value and great to just smash about on. Any ideas what the largest tyre I can fit on the back is? I think the alpinas limit the front to 25C

New wheels.... Changed bars n grips for some 2008 flash backs

So, better pics of what turned up last night:

Bit of a parts mix, stronglight/spidel, simplex, maillard, look, gipiemme, philippe, modolo, campagnolo. Not too sure what to do with it just yet, classic era french or italian? something more modern - 8 or 10 speed?

Most likely I'll leave it as is for now and give it some good thought, From the classic era I think full Campagnolo would be a bit samey, high end french a little more interesting, or less-seen Italian could be interesting too (Ofmega Mistral?). I like the 8 speed Shimano groups (740X/640X) but they could look a bit out of place here.

Cross Check is just about done for now though I'm thinking about a low-trail fork and a lightweight rear rack for spring/summer overnight adventures.

Looks rad, but tape your bars better!

Mini V suggestions? Preferably Silver.

TRP CX9, sadly they don't come in silver.

shimano mini v come in silver.

BR-R353? How do those compare to Tektro RX5's? Groupset is Campagnolo so would prefer Tektro to Shimano hehe.
