I think Tokyo Fixed sells them.

Thought the grass looked different!

Depends how much faith you have in tape.

Where did you get the new struts?

Should take a link or two out of that chain.

I'm not really liking the gator on the back tbh... but its really grippy so I think it'll work well on the front.

The rando is cheap enough that I'm willing to give it a go.

yeah (barely used) gator on the front and a new rando on the back

Yeah makes sense.

Wiggle sells 8 different variants though...

So I've decided to move my gator on the back to the front and ditch the crappy halfords tyre I'm currently using.

I've heard good things about randos on the back, so I thought I'd give one a try.

I'm looking for a 25 or 28c.

But which one?

I have a 78 model. Definitely wouldn't take 27s. I run 700x25cs.

Prov dibs frame if split (pre-empting it!), pending price.

Looks like he decided not to sell.

dibs frame

Hmmm think I'll pick one up!

Thanks for the offer gaz, would rather keep it all campag if I can though.

Just found this: http://www.pedalpedlar.co.uk/collections/fixed-gear/products/campagnolo-pista-lockring

Anyone dealt with these guys before?

Anyone got one?

Would have to post, but should fit in a regular envelope.

Cheers

EDIT:

Sorted one now

If you're on a budget I'd put it all into one bike. Better components -> nicer, more dependable ride.

My friend has an old road frame (which he has since converted to fixed).

It seems to be nice tubing, nice lugs (see pictures), wrap around stays, campag drop outs etc. British standard.

Serial number on frame (and fork) is 536.

It didn't have original paint or head badge when he got it.

Any ideas?

Excuse the low quality!

Payment sent

They do the trick. If you can find some nice second hand ones I'd go for those instead though.

Yeah. I may be able to get some old campag clones from sugino or similar. I'm not that fussed about having original parts, I just want something that works and doesn't look out of place.

So I recently picked up a Raleigh Professional Track frame. It looks a bit like this: http://www.sheldonbrown.com/retroraleighs/catalogs/1976/images/03-76-professional-track.jpg

From what I've read, it originally came with a campag pista crank-set and campag record track hubs laced to some very light (very fragile) tubs.

These are a bit out of my price range, and I want to be riding on the road.

I have what seems to be the original campag bb, but this wouldn't be hard to replace.

Can anyone recommend a wheel-set / crank-set combo with the following:

• 700c (I don't want to be messing around with tubs)
  
• Some form of front braking surface
  
• Reasonable prices: sub £100 crank-set, sub £200 wheel-set
  
• "vintage" look (modern looking components really won't suit the frame)
  
• Decent chainline
  
• etc...
