Dear Chas,
Obviously, a man still riding his 1972 TdF is deserving of our help.
And, if you still have a stash, I have one more bike in progress and the Stronglight 93 to go on it. Which is to ... |

SO. Now to replace the BB.
I have options for replacement. As I haven't clearly understood the best size discussion, I have an older style Phil in 113mm, a newer style Phil in 115mm, both ISO, of ... |

I owe an update.
My basic overhaul duties are almost done, although a complete refurbishment will require a few more steps.

Hi Chas,
It was odd. The guy said it was for his Veloce TRIPLE! Whatever.
On the Campy headset, my SC did come from the factory that way, but the one on my TdF has been there since circa 1976 ... |

Hi Chas,
Well, as usual, fabulous advice in expansive detail.
It was this strange thing of someone "requiring" a 103mm bottom bracket on a '72 TdF that had me confused. I had no idea ... |

Hi guys!
I'm off to middle USA to, among other duties, collect my '71 TdF from my aging mum's basement. I'll be doing a major and long overdue overhaul. Both headset and bottom bracket may requ ... |

Frustrating system. I've spent more than an hour trying to post a simple response. THIS works, but not what I've typ ... |

Chas,
As always, you're a font of fabulous knowledge.
What's the going price for a fine/NOS V4? Should one pay more than $50? More than $70?
Do I assume correctly that spacers will allow f ... |

Okay. I've spent hours searching for more information about the quality of the Stronglight headset options. Obviously, stack height is crucial. So I use this thread to ask: What are the quality di ... |

Cost is, of course, a consideration. I've got the French rings, so the cost can be kept w/in reasonable. For some reason I have a wealth of options for triple cranks, but not for a double to support ... |

Thanks, Chas.
I wonder why you would recommend the JIS spindle instead of the ISO. Isn't the ISO spindle essentially the older square (or Campagnolo) type?
