The cleats aren't quite the same. If I could find my old Look pedals I'd try to clip my shoes (with SPD-SL cleats) into them to be sure but from what I've read they're not compatible. And to add to the confusion, the newer Keo type cleats are different to the old Look cleats.

2nd dibs on "time drilled straight blade carbon forks - £25".

Is that jersey XL by any chance (not XS)? I just measured a medium jersey of mine and it's 17.5" armpit-armpit.

@bigfella - You can change most 8sp levers to 9sp by replacing the rachet mechanism and springs inside. Give Mercian Cycles a call. They sell parts for ergo levers and they've been very helpful to me when I called them a while back when I refurbished my old 9sp levers. It's a fiddly job but you can do it yourself. And you can download the schematic from the Campag web site in case you get the lever apart and can't remember which order the parts go back together! ;-)

I'm no expert on touring so I can't offer a bike or advice I'm afraid but I know there are a few on this forum who are into touring and with a bit of luck they'll be along to offer some advice. If you haven't done already, it would be worth giving the CTC forum a try. Loads of people there are into touring. This site also looks very useful, especially if you're fairly new to touring, like me, and lots of good ideas for inspiration. Good luck.

[B]7. Campagnolo - veloce - Italy - 172.5mm - 52/42 - £15[/B]

I found an old square-taper Campag left crank in my box of old miscellaneous bike bits but I don't remember which model it is. If I had to take a guess I'd say it was Veloce but it might be Chrous. There's no printing left on the crank, if there ever was any, but has "284" stamped on the inside of the crank but I doubt that helps to identify it. I'm asking because I might be able to make use of it again if I can find out which model it is and so get the right BB. It's likely to be from around 2002-03. So does anybody know how to tell which model it is?

I can post photos if that would help. Let me know if there's anything in particular I should focus on.

Argh! Sorry, duplicate thread. I got the "server busy" error so I tried again and now have 2 identical threads.

The other thread is here: http://www.lfgss.com/thread48772.html

Mr Moderator - please delete this thread.

One of these?

might want to put a rear brake on this as the chain line isn't fixed - its more 'pulled tight'

Well spotted Crows. It's not legal in the UK like that. A cheap and easy fix to put a brake on it though.

Nice bike and a good price too.

You should talk to this guy, he's looking for a 'cross bike this size:

The same thing has happened to me a couple of times on Open Pro rims.

What arup said. Tape the new rim to the existing wheel, line up the valve holes obviously, then move spokes over one at a time. Take your time and don't over-tighten. Personally I'd replace the spokes unless they're fairly new or you're on a tight budget.

It's not just you, lederhosen. Those track ends have a very DIY look about them.

You can have first dibs on the bars Daem.

Is SHIMANO WH-R500 (Tiagra) REAR WHEEL £20 still available? Dibs if it is. PM on the way.

What width and diameter are the profile bars?

Edit: should've looked more closely at the photo. Width is 40cm. How about diameter?

2nd dibs on CINELLI BULL HORNS £8 if Dr Chan doesn't want them.

Edit - Sorry, have to undibs this. Didn't look closely enough.

Dibs please. PM on the way.

I'm pretty sure I have a new (installed but never had cranks on it) 111mm Italian BB at home that's no longer of any use to me. By happy coincidence I could use a 102mm Italian BB so would be happy to swap. I'll check when I get home tonight.

Dibs on " (50) SELCOF 26.8mm 310mm rails to limit mark ** NEW OLD STOCK** £12" if it's still available. PM on the way.

Right Im lost now! Ive got a dibs, I may have a second dibs unless its the same person (that's forum aliases for you). Anyone else before I log off for the weekend?

It's the same person (Mudd = Craig). Sorry for the confusion.

Ah, you got there before me! :-)

I've resisted long enough. Dibs - PM sent.

Is "Winter" a brand name or is this a custom job? Just curious as I've never heard of that name. Either way, nice looking frame.

Dibs:
Bullhorn bars black. oversize and 42cm wide. £5
RPM BB 68x110 sq taper. Fitted but not used. Threads good. £5 (assuming it's JIS taper)
