Some great deals here - if that fork was 1 inch I'd have bitten your arm off...

It looks like dirt but is most likely a sort of greasy oil - try degreaser - I did something similar about a year ago with a yellow rapha top and washing wouldn't shift the stains (looked exactly the same) but then I rubbed with degreaser in the sink and it basically all came out. Then stuck back in the wash again.

Hope you're ok BTW.

That is a great price

Thanks - this might work - I’ve already filed down a nut on the guard so that it recesses inside the fork crown but the guard still slopes down toward the rear of the crown - so will try and rig up something there and lift it a bit.

that's cracking - looks light!

OK so I have fitted mudguards to the winter bike I built up (a second hand bob jackson frame - complete with audax UK sticker). It was built for the original owner with close clearance at the front (I have the bob jackson paperwork which shows this) and it is so close I can't quite get my SKS longboards to fit without the odd scraping noise when it gets wet and muddy.

I've fettled it as much as I can (re-drilling the brake mounting bracket and filing down a nut and playing with the stays etc etc) and it's the closest I can get the mudguard to the underside of the fork crown (2-3 mm gap).

My question is this - would I stand any better chance with PDW (or other) mudguards or does close clearance actually mean "not enough clearance" in this instance? I can't see how it would help me given PDW are not circular x-section, but I thought I would ask as I'm pretty fed up given the amount of extra tinkering I've had to do on top of the usual rage filled mudguard fitting session...

edit - tyres are 25c Conti four seasons on rim brake aksiums - they don't look partic bulbous...

My replacement shimano ultegra chainset arrived to replace the delaminated one - but they replaced a compact with a mid compact. So it's gone back to be replaced. Again...

I'm running a 12 speed 105 chainset with an otherwise 11 speed ultegra setup (inc chain) and it works fine

might be interested - pm incoming

You’ve prob already read but just in case

Looks 11 speed not 10?

Thanks - sounds too small for me :(

Interested - how does it size up - true small or more akin to medium??

And possible final touch but not sure

Another

Rain finally stopped and managed a shakedown ride - this thing rides like a dream. Not harsh like I was expecting (I used to own a bowman palace r and this is way smoother, though the 303s could have something to do with it).

I might need an inline post for this but I’ll see how I get on.

Excuse the seat pack and running lights…

My word… what a collection

Tremendous work. The campag really looks good.

Loved your CAAD2 as well - what did you do with the 808s?

Unlikely second dibs on no.3...

Nah - I did the teapot in la vie claire colours... ;)

OK this is finished - sorry for the crappy pic - will take a better photo in the daylight outside when I do a shakedown ride.
