On line parts for older bikes ?

I need a new full size (Zefal?) frame pump, If you are willing to get a plastic one, they're everywhere. I can't find a metal one; I broke a friend's pump and owe him one. if I could locate some Weinnman brake parts (rubber lever hoods, original full shoes) that would be great. http://www.bikeville.com/brakes.html Never bought from them, but they showed up in google. -- |

A supplier who still carries upper level French and other European components would be a big plus for me. (Nothing against Japanese parts, it just that I'm trying to keep this bike as pure 70's European as I can). Thanks, http://www.bikeville.com/forsale.html http://www.bicycletrader.com/ |

I need tubular tires, I'd love to find some rim tape (not the liquid,
tape is so much better when you get an "on the road" flat. ). Tubulars are a PITA, IMHO. You are going to need to have glue and spare tubies if you get a flat on the road. I can find tubulars at my local shops, but I'm pretty sure Harris Cyclery (http://sheldonbrown.com/harris) and Nashbar have them. Get the cheap Vittorias as you will not cry when you flat. The first time you try to patch them, you are either going to learn patience or you are going to chuck them. I need a new full size (Zefal?) frame pump, That is recommended. But if you think you're going to get off easy with tubulars, think again. ...if I could locate some Weinnman brake parts (rubber lever hoods, original full shoes) that would be great. Relatively easy to find. But the Kool-Stop pads work better than the vintage pads, and they'll work fine on the older brakes. Scott-Mathauser pads are still available with a little searching, they were the standard back in the day. It really depends on whether you want to do a full working period correct rebuild or just want to ride the bike. http://www.geocities.com/cochise_200...ures/px10.html -- _______________________ALL AMIGA IN MY MIND_______________________ ------------------"Buddy Holly, the Texas Elvis"------------------ in.edu__________ |
