The 10s Mirage/Veloce one I have in my hand is 3.4mm thick, 10mm ID, 13mm OD. Carbon and/or 11s versions may be different

It's a 10sp Chorus standard, can only presume its the same 3.4mm spacer. Now just got to find one, thanks

I've found one. Where are you?

I've been a bit bored this week so I decided to make something for my wall from some spare bits I had knocking about.

I haven't got enough wall space, but they're quite easy to make, the longest part was making the back board and waiting for the paint to dry

OK, Picasso was first with "Head of a Bull" in 1942. He had his saddle and handle bar sculpture cast in bronze, just to show off like.

They're easy to make, obtaining certain bar might not be (especially when some can be expensive, like the Nitto in the middle).

But he used the actual, found objects first.
The bronze casting happened later and was a continuation of his theories.

Give me a shout when selling those Zonda's please. I still got a nice set of oldskool Mavic box section wheels for sale, but I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for. When interested please send me a PM, I'll send you some pictures.

Hmm.. I have one of those saddles knocking around too. Quite like that idea.

i did wonder about pantographing the cinelli

About to start a new project for the GFs xmas present. I am looking for the best steel frame money can buy (in the price range £200 - £300), with geometry of 51 cm seat tube (c-t), and 53 cm top tube.

At the moment, the best option seems to be the Guerciotti record from Planet X, but I have also seen a Zanella frame in BLB that I could get for £250.

What would anyone here recommend?
