^ that looks awesome

Fuck me, that's hideous.

Great stage indeed. Jurgen Van den broeck is clearly also still in the race.

Perhaps you could dig it enough to go and find a picture of a nice bike from that era, rather than that poc

I'm sure this will suit you better ;)

I know everybody's gonna hate on this, but i really dig the eighties vibe. Only thing i would change is the bar tape.

Didn't know about Tommy Godwin, crazy story.

Not an ebay find but, i have an opportunity to buy a concorde colombo in pretty good condition (some decals are scruffy, a bit of paint damage) equipped with shimano 105.. For 160€, is this a good deal?

"However, Christophe was not at first pleased to wear the yellow jersey as he complained that the spectator laughed and told him that he looked like a canary." this definately counts as epicness.

is everybody in london this random on the internet? A+

You lost me.

Wait whut? One post...One post and i'm already confused...

Is it just me or shoud they just skip the first stages of the modern tdf?
I've been watching loads of classic tour de france and giro documentaries lately and keep finding them way more interesting than what's happening in cycling at the moment...

I grew up as little kid (i'm only 21) running around in italy with a bandana on my head wishing i was pantani. Living in belgium eddy merckx was bigger than the pope... Later on i learned about legends like Coppi, Bartali and Anquetil. Anquetil's unique style and his very strict athletic regimen of steak tartare and beers probably made him one of the most epic cyclists for me.

Anyway, let's go down memory lane, who are your favorite classic cyclists and why? Like anquetil doing the double double, pantani killing it in '98, merckx riding away at 90K from the finish line time after time and killing everyone... Or what are your favorite bikes from tour history? Gimondi's bianchi is probably one of my dream bikes.

Any people from Belgium or the Netherlands on here who have a 54cm frame or full bike up for sale? I'm interested!

sold

Any Koga Miyata connaisseurs who can help me out with this one? I'm presuming it's a repaint and someone put random decals on it?

hmm that's too expensive for a frame for me. Thanks though!!

I'm currently selling this Gazlle Olympia 62cm hi tensile steel bike. You can check it out here: http://www.2dehands.be/fietsen/fietsen/racefiets/gazelle-olympia-62-stalen-125926075.html?qq=gazelle+olympia&pcpl=&pc_id=&afd=

Hi everyone,

i'm keeping an eye out for an italian steel frame, preferably size 54. Brands like f. moser, bianchi, benotto, colnago, pinarello, etc etc etc i'll consider anything it's mainly about the steel quality and the size.
-> edit: ALSO INTERESTED IN COMPLETE BIKES AT THIS SIZE!

Thanks!

@TheHighlander Thanks for the article! Luckily the fork is coming with the frame. However the guy is bugging me about the price for it now so not sure if i will eventually buy.. really like it though. Heart vs wallet once again :D

bump bump, no interest?

PS: a part of the sale price for this frame will be donated to the forum.

When considering the 'projects' building up in my basement I need to make some priorities as to where i'm going to spend my budget... Which is why i decided to sell this cyclocross frame (which is a bit too big for me) to focus on a road bike project.

It's a Clemenso (Belgian company from the town of Diest) professional Cyclocross frame. Clemenso consisted of high quality belgian steel cross and road bikes. It must be around 20 years old by now but is in impeccable condition. It has been professionally sandblasted and coated in white.

Size: 57cm
Fork included
Columbus tubing

This frame is certainly worth 100€ + shipping (from Belgium). Offers are welcome though. I wonder who will be interested...

P.S. I'm uploading pre-paintjob pictures in a sec. (see columbus label) (now uploaded)

Thanks for your answer! I did a little further research myself, i suspect this could be a 'pro revolution' frame made from Dedacciai Zero Uno tubing (see photo for label).

I'm definitely not a big steel connoisseur however... Zero Uno should have about 175 KSI of tensile strength but not sure what this means in terms of strength/weight.

Hi Everyone, I came across the opportunity to buy this frame (in my size) at a cheap price.

Does anyone have more information about this type of frame: maybe the time period in which it was constructed and the exact material (it's steel but not sure if columbus, reynolds,...)?

Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone, new member here. Half italian Half belgian (which should make for perfect cycling genes, but sadly...) living in Belgium. Name is thomas. Big cycling fan.

Currently working on a Clemenso cyclocross frame project, turning it into a single speed cyclocross bike (Clemenso was a small Belgian company from the town of Diest, mostly building columbus frames for both road and cyclocross. Roland Libothon used to ride with Clemenso, for you cyclocross fans out there). I hope to read and learn here, stare at bike porn and maybe buy/sell some interesting bikes and parts.

Cheers!
Thomas
