UCI regulations aside, the wing profile should be at least 1:7. _________________ Kind Regards, Wisey Delta Dreamin'   Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 12:24 am Gtane Joined: 14 Sep 2007 Posts: 681 Location: UK Lofter, Interesting find and name. I found a few further shots of the same bar; http://tinyurl.com/376amn3 I don't feel there's anything there on the iconic Delta though.

Tim yeah after looking at a couple shots that tim put up i agree they couldnt hold the real deltas joc. its that overhead view that looks so much like the original delta . i was pissed when i stumbled across it   Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 7:07 am Gtane Joined: 14 Sep 2007 Posts: 681 Location: UK Lofter, Your favourite machine. Here's a front corner shot of the real deal with Fignon in a wind tunnel, but my, how difficult it is to find shots of this wonderful bicycle - really tough. http://tinyurl.com/2unwnxs I guess your find goes to show how much of a challenge it is to better a top design. It would be great if you were the first on this forum to be the lucky owner of a Delta. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Tim i think sandman will probably be the first , he has alot of people contacting him about stuff hes the one who turned on to this delta track frame that is only 70 miles from my house. i guess because of the wing shape its not the same but look at the grips and the points on the back of them . delta bars     gitaneusa.com Forum Index » Vintage Gitane You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 8 Hours   Page 1 of 1   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Gitane USA----------------Vintage GitaneGitane RacingModern GitanePro Racing - Classics/Giro/Tour....Owner Gallery   Powered by phpBB © 2001-2004 phpBB Group Designed for Trushkin.net | Themes Database.
