Anything with lye (Sodium hydroxide). I use gel type oven cleaner, easy to cover, less mess.

Dropouts not level.. no custom steel fork? No way.

I think you got it, I would say putting power down broke a link or finished the job hence skipped chain with the engagement problems.

I find this interesting, what model cranks are those?

This is my bike, 7402 road cranks so shouldn't really be here :). I like 7400 panto stuff so I built a bike with it. Cycles Underground D4 chainring, recommended.

Red rear hub and my general distaste for S80s aside, it's pretty damn good, doesn't belong here no way!

Because sometimes I can, tri you'll see why

ftfy

Is it some crazy euro solution to route a little aero into non-aero levers? If it's how it was originally, I like the ingenuity.

Agreed, if you are strapped, sell the Sherriffs for the appropriate geared parts to compliment the rest of the lovely parts you have planned. They are WAY over invested for a conversion.

^ I have swooned this also, so good.

That bartape match, out of control.

That looks like an awesome daily rider to me, No idea what those cranks are except for cool as hell and they go nice with those older style hubs (and I wouldn't expect as many people would want to take them).
Lose the half-link, though. You don't need it so why have an inferior chain?

But they do the Dosnoventa better than Dosnoventa.

lol, downtube dent? That's a first.
A lot of nice frames showing up with tube dents recently.. not that hard to keep your bars in check. Track incidents excluded.

One day a finished bike. Great holiday.

Real nice build for sure.

Question, 30 spoke shamal? what is it.. an Atlanta? or a misc non-campag rim. Profile *looks *pretty damn close to the real thing.
And where you get those repro decals? Been looking for em for ages. And what is with the apostrophe.. inside joke? :)

Hey lads,
I've tried to avoid looking OS but I'll give our Euro cousins a whirl.
Looking for 7400 (or 7402) cranks in any length less than 175mm. Average condition is fine, nothing too thrashed but wear and scratches are not a problem as long as the anodizing is in tact.
Will buy with or without rings.
Dust caps a bonus.
Have to be willing to take paypal and chuck it in an airmail bag for me to aussie land.
Let me know what you have. Thanks!

Oh my god I need that. I have the matching road frame. Any more information about the providence of the photo?

Sold on eBay not too long ago, has been in porn thread I think?. Damn nice.
Seat stay porn worth the re:

NDS, half-link, un-taped bars... etc.. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

^ lovely.

Pea but that Textima is perfect.. well, except the bar angle and whatever is going on with that seat post. An all time favorite for sure.
Just bought one of those huge rings last week and I'm glad I did.

Yep! Very, very nice.
Looking forward to seeing what you decide for paint.

^ so lush.
though, agreed on the rims.. and there is something about the straight forks that isn't working for me.. dunno.

Two things to consider:
Steel of threadless steerers are sometimes thinner than that of steerers intended for threading so they may not be suitable.
Also, you will probably have to find a frame builder to thread that for you, not all shop mechanics will have the right tools to do it.

I'd put all of those bikes and probably even that storefront in anti TBH.

^^wow, thats a repainted* laser*

Holly shit it is! Even has a BB fin, damn.

Similar. Inspired no doubt. Australian built.

Brian Hayes built Euro Sport pursuit bike. The frame is one of four built for the Australian Pursuit team to compete with at the 1993 World Track Championships. The four riders managed to take the gold at the event on these bikes while setting a new 4000m mens team pursuit World Record. The Frame is a work of art with the gussets, hourglass chain stays, wishbone seat stay, and keel that extends through the BB and is a true testimate to the quality of frame builder that Brian Hayes was.

There are still a couple of them left, one in this configuration or similar.

(probably a Re in this thread or porn where it belongs)

and another with similar gussets prior to restoration job..

Good shit.
Not sure about that poorly built one above, though. in London?

^ truth.
