Name this knock around!
Postby CurbsideCowboy » Sat Sep 29, 2012 3:03 pm
Frame is 56/56cm - perfect geometry for myself.
It's a lugged frame, possibly late 70's to mid 80's.
Any ideas?
Is this one something that should be restored or left how it it? Thanks!

Scroll down and there's a picture of a blue Gazelle Champion Mondial. Same sort of seat stay caps but the mudguard eyelets throw me a bit. Maybe, maybe not.

The lugs & fork crown are very similar to what you'd expect to see on a Raleigh, but I'm not 100% convinced that's what it is.
The fork has been drilled to accept the recessed nut for the front brake.
Is there any writing on the dropouts? They look a lot like Campagnolo 1010s.
Nice bike, regardless of what it is.

You can easily tell, because they'll have the word Campagnolo etched into them. You might have to remove the wheel (or QR) to see it.CurbsideCowboy wrote:Dropouts are definately campy 1010

Wazza, i'm pretty sure the tubing on his bike is 531c. He had it made in the 80s in a Sydney bike shop called bikebarn? don't quote on the name.Wazza wrote:We had a very, very similar bike join us yesterday on the Riverloop.The guy has had it from new,~25years, but didn't say where he had it made. The Shimano 600 grouppo was also the same vintage. His tubing was 501. If he joins us again I'll ask him again about where he got it made.

The one piece of advice which I believe to be right: Clean it up and ride it.

Bike Barn in Paramatta were a very busy shop but the never built their own frames. Mostly sold production frames and may have contracted local builders but none that I have heard confirmed of so far.vaeske wrote:
