Sorry.

Lied about the Chuckle Brother for added effect...

I would go for the 105 too. £12 posted from CRC. Strip it and polish it for a lovely finish.

gil M. is the man - does a lot for the retro mountain bike boys, can print and reproduce most stuff on vinyl.

Bump - still looking for all the above. Jos sorted me a nice usable 110mm Cinelli but I would ideally like to replace it with a shorter 90-100mm or so. Still nedd ring and frame too...

Yep, that's the same one on ebay that I posted about above. If you get a 10% LCC discount they are only £405 new so beat him down....

If you are 6'4" I would build your own up - plenty of lovely big frames ready for conversion on eBay that won't be so fought over (£££) by us (more common) shorter types.

You can easily put together a lovely bike with mostly classic NOS parts and a new set of wheels for less than a Fillmore.

LOL! Maybe it's having two under fives but I love em' - can't beat a bit of good old slapstick.

The Chuckles:

It' s probably between the Paddy Wagon (bettter wheels) and Fillmore (better frame) - not much in it though.

Not sure what size you are after but there is one in London on ebay came on yesterday - I emailed the seller and he is happy to do a deal ouside ebay - his is a 53 c-c.

The seller just got back to me, said he had to sell as his local cycling club mates thought it was ridiculous...

Do you remember a while back I was asking for arty 'fixed/London' themed pics for a gallery section?

Just emailed the seller (one half of the Chuckle Brothers apparantly) asking for a hi-res...

I kid ye not - colour, style and even a London post box - it's got the lot.

Hi chaps, thanks for the replies.

Andy - thanks but a tadge long really, prefer 90 to 110 max.

Yep, got a search going on ebay that I check every day but nothing 'just right' at the moment.

Just wondering if anyone had one to flog 'outside' ebay.

Looking for a Cinelli 1A quill stem around 100mm extension. 22.2 quill and 26.4 clamp.

Also need a standard Campag chainring around 46/47/48 teeth with 130 bcd (79.5 adjacent holes).

And (long shot) a decent steel frame suitable for fixed in around 53cm c-t.

A new 2007 49cm has just come on ebay at Cycledelia - they were the ones who sold the brand new 2007 54cm for £260 last week.

Blimey - anyone up for a group spray in Ral 2003?

Tedri - if you sort out a size... I was searching all round for these a few weeks back. These guys have some larger ones at £305 delivered:

You will probably find none are in stock anywhere until the new 2008 models arrive in Feb.

A brand new 2007 (54cm) went for only £260 last week on ebay.

I'm totally gutted about another one though - an immaculate 2005 model on ebay - when I emailed the guy last week he agreed to sell it off ebay for £180 - I was all due to collect it last Saturday but due to a cock up could not get there. Meanwhile he got more bids...and changed his mind

...it ended on £300 last night.

Clucking Bell.

Argghhh - aluminium FFS.

You're definitely not alone. Mine's here:

That's the problem with all these aluminium road bars - you just need to do so much as *look *at the shiny surface and it marks...

Miche are standard ISO. Any Campag BB etc will work, buy the length to suit your frame and chainline. Normally 111mm IIRC.

Sorry, forgot to say it depends on the bolt/clamp arrangement. In many models you have access to both sides of the threaded hole (I come from a MTB background) so you can reverse the bolt in to the threaded side and do it that way.

You can lay a decent ruler across the seat tube and try and sight it from the inside of the tube edges but you won't be able to tell a 27.0 from a 27.2

TBH I would buy a cheap Vernier gauge from ebay - I got a secondhand old fashioned Sheffield Chesterman engineers metal one (non digital) for about £5. Once you have one they are so useful for this and that...
