The chainline must have been out a mm as I've just measured the spindle and it is 115mm long (well actually 115.60). In my defense that was the setup as the bike came to me....

These are from 1987 if my date code reading is correct and are in 'honest' used condition - ie for a daily rider. They are 170 mm long and the tapers seem to be in good order as are the pedal threads. A 68 x 115mm long (i think) english threaded bottom bracket is included which is as per almost...

Re: Did the post sell in the end (I did reply to the ad on STW when posted twice but never heard anything back)?

These are among the last items to 'shift' on from a recent purchase which is going down the Shimano route. I was assured that these were working fine prior to removal and I've run through the clicks and they seem to all be present. The hoods shown the usual shiny wear areas but are split free...

I recently bought a bike in bits for the frame hence have some bits to move on (due to running Shimano across all the bikes). Firstly is a Campagnolo Record titanium seatpost (gutted it's too short for my frames). The shaft is 27.2mm and 200mm long giving a overall length around 245mm. It has...

Re: Mmmm tempting, I'm in the Gloucester area next Saturday afternoon so could collect...

I'm interested in the unit. Are the cracks a result of dropping it and do they compromise the waterproofness at all? Also how old/how much use has it had (especially in the wet) - only my 800 refused to connect to my pc due to usb connector corrosion hence my trepidation... Ta A-H

I have up for sale a Retrobike short sleeve top in XL by thecyclejersey.com, 1/4 zip version with no snags hitches or pulls. It does have some mud staining on the white panels though. Measures 22.5" pit to pit - £15 (just was always too big on me!) Also a Castelli L/S winter jacket/top in XL...

C-T is center bb to top of frame, which is the 61cm dimension then. What sort of height are you and where are you located? Also I presume it takes an Italian BB and a 130mm OLN rear wheel (& both wheels are 700c and not 650??)

What are the actual effective C-T and TT measurements please?

Interested in the Castelli windproof top - do you have a pic of the back of it or a description of it? Just it looks like it may be red??

If by any chance the above sale falls through I'd be very,very interested.....

I am 6'1" tall with a 35(ish) inch inside leg (groin to ground). So it should fit him well - i.e less than a country mile of seatpost showing!!

I like your reasoning - aounds like a common trait of many on here, I totally forgot I'm on holiday from this weekend, but upon my return if there are no takers would you still be interested? Tbh it would be great to sell both F&F together!

Pre-split bumpage! Will sort out a parts list and prices over the next few days if no takers on the overall bike.
