Hi,

I need some help from a person in UK, since an Ebay-seller is willing to post a pair of rims, but not to The Netherlands.
Can I have it sent to your (home) address and you forward it to me?
Of course, all expenses paid.

Cheers, DC.

Cheers DC, all sorted now - got a gipiemme bit in the end... same as this... http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7054/6933649697_9d2240d91c_m.jpg from a shop down the road...

Yes, that's it.
That's the original part.

Mattyc, that shifter part came from Ofmega, I think.
Without it, the frame is worthless.
Try to find it somewhere or have one machined.

There may also be a Sun Tour part that fits.

Yes. That was the year that Gazelle decided to give in the hands of a pro. They hired industrial designer Peter van der Veer to design parts and concept bikes. His first attempt was decals for the lightweight series.
iirc, the dash was designed to bring a speed element/illusion. Industrial designers are not always good bike designers and often have an odd taste.
But it was a pro's idea, so nobody questioned that design.

Besides Facebook event page, also opened a blog with news, information, background and whatever may come out of my brain....

Just make sure it all works properly and try to keep as much as possible from the current bike. It's a win.
If you want to put some other parts on it, take a look in the oldest catalogues.

I would be surprised if there was even a single wrench available at the Gazelle company.

With some tools and cartridges of Acethylene/Oxygen I would love to build a couple at home though.

Besides 3 frames for dutch riders, at least 4 were built for the german track team of Nordrhein Westfalen.

No sorry, I don't know him.
I think he's more a seller than a collector.

Eur 3000 is a bit steep, it will sell for the current 635 or maybe a bit higher.

Hi Jasper, you either sell it here or somewhere else.
Please read the rules.

^ what is going on with the seat post clamp? some kind of quill/expanding seat post?

Yes, quill type. Atax IIRC

you've probably been asked this before, but did you used to work at Gazelle?

Yes, 1984-1989.
I made a certain contribution to these Pursuit / Time Trial bikes.
I think there are approx. 7 pcs of these Gazelle lo pro track frames in the world.
For sure less than 10.

Very unique Gazelle track frame / bike.
I remember that it was built.
Looks like this one was built for Mieke Havik.
It even appears somewhere on Youtube.
A similar but slightly smaller one was built for Henny Top.
A year before, there was one for Jelle Nijdam, I think for the 1984 Olympics.

2nd dibs SR seat post 27.2 mm

Thanks for checking mate.
I'm sure I'll find a set here, but it seems that it will take some time.
I like to finish my wheels within 1 or 2 months though and hurry is always bad...

Gazelle sport primeur multishape

Seems unusual, never seen one before, legit? no pantos, decals look wonkey etc

This is no Gazelle and no Columbus multishape.
Sport Primeur is a cheap dutch citybike.
This isn't.

Hi Ian,

By any chance, do you have a nice pair of clincher rims left, 36H?
I'm looking for a pair from around 1980, so Mavic Module, Wolber Gentleman or something like that.
The sides/brake surface should be as new, no brake marks and not machined, because it's for a track bike.
Ideally a pair of NOS rims.

Any better pics of the 130 mm SR quill stem?

Park Hoge Veluwe is nice for visiting the Museum (free white bikes in the park) and for cruising around a bit, but I wouldn't recommend it with a racing bike.
But outside the park there are many cycling opportunities, incl. the Apeldoorn velodrome and several marked MTB tours.

This is a very early Cross Trophy.
A Tour de l'Avenir road frame / fork with cantilever bosses.
That explains the tight clearances and road-like geometry.

I don't know exactly, but (depending on the type and condition) I was thinking about GBP 30 - 50 for a pair of rims.

On Marktplaats a new pair, but also for tubular.
Real bRgain though.

Would be great if you had 2 pcs though.
Of course, I will cover for postage, but I would prefer to get 2 rims at the same time
a. I hope that the rims are identical
b. to save costs for postage
