It does look like it's in good shape. It's missing the tiny anti-lawyer drop-out screws (and stated as such in the ad). I don't know, some prices are still low, but it seems other items are taking off and going through the roof.

Looks very nice and the price has started at a very low amount!

I'll also consider using a riveted-on cable stop if they'll be too difficult to weld, or epoxy. https://www.cycle-frames.com/bicycle-frame-tubing/NOVA-CABLE-STOP-SINGLE-RIVET-SILVER.html

Wow, so you did that? That looks great!

I had a chance earlier this week to weld up the chainstay bridge for the swing arm. A bit tricky welding the tube on the side where the suspension pivot ears are, despite it looking like there was a lot of room, as there wasn't (even with using a short cap on the TIG torch). That takes care of...

I couldn't attach this photo in our message so I have it posted here. The measurements I took were that the outside diameter is 44.5mm, the innermost diameter of the notches is 38.5mm and each notch has a diameter (not radius!) of 9.5mm.

Hit up some of the shops in your neighbourhood. You may be able to find some although your best bet is CL

Yes, I like this.

Excellent! Thanks for including the numbers... Saves tremendous time searching online!

Yes, surprising indeed!

Not yet. I need to weld up that swing arm.

I’ll give it a try. Right from the start I was not thinking of the silver.

Speaking of brakes, I found this listing on eBay last night. The only anodized colors I remember being used on these bikes were silver, blue and purple...

Wow, only 72 Euros? At that price it would be good to break down for parts (depending on the quality).

The CODA brakes were re-badged Dia Compe 986. You can still find those new and used on eBay. In fact, I bought a set to restore the original CODAs on my Killer V (only used the hardware as the originals were rusted).

Anybody ever repaint their bike using that '90s splatter paint pattern? If so, what was the technique that was used? I'm contemplating doing a splatter paint job for my SE1000 project and would think that would be appropriate considering the era that the bike was from. I suppose that dipping a...

As cool as they are, no. I had a set of Spins back in the late ‘90s. They’re all too old and I don’t trust carbon fibre ;)

Motivated? More like determined! Much like you, I would’ve liked to have finished this a while ago, but I have too many other projects on the go and get easily distracted. Staying as focused as I can...
