Current Projects chat and miscellany

I have no clue to confirm that it is a genuine bianchi... Frame ain't engraved.
I don't know the english word for it, it works like a stem (so is it called quill seatpost ?)

how do you find the clearance on the front fork? I have the same caad10 with some wide rims + 25mm tyres and they don't fit

It is dope no matter what brand it is. Quill seat post are also nice :-)

Still surprised it doesn't fit, I managed 29mm in the past.

Might be just because your is the smaller size.

seems odd that it would come with a different fork but maybe that is the case

really? I could fit 28mm without any trouble if i wanted to! Mine is a 54cm

If your is the 48cm model, then it's a different fork.

This is my current project and its slowly coming together. Got it off a guy from Exeter for a steal, nearly took his hand off!

Nice, I've always been partial to those Raleigh track frames. No gold and black decals though?

Yeah the colour seems original but i've never seen a full red one. I do like the Ti team colours mind. Its the real deal though, SB7610 stamped, Cinelli lugs, Campy dropouts, Reynolds 753R with the 'GOD' decal. It has 'Services des courses' down the rear drops which apparently means it was used as a backup velodrome race bike possibly.

wups, hope you're ok

Finally I found some time to fit a proper stem to my marcarini (had to sand it down a bit cause the forks only accepts 22mm stems). I did this so I could put compact bontrager ssr vrc handlebars.

And here is an update of my ciocc with corima aero wheels

Leaving for a LEJOG today, got new wheels and bits on my genesis:

And this is what it looks like loaded:

I am trying not to think about what I've forgotten...
