I think the price is reasonable. Guessing it was $1200 or so new. I don't know the weight off hand but I would guess around 21 lbs. It's nice on gravel. I'd like a taller head tube but other than that it's fine. Won't fit super wide tires but most 32-35 mm tires should fit. Can weigh...

I think that's a 2003 Saeco Team Replica. It was the top of the line road bike that year. Last one sold on ebay went for $600 but had Campagnolo Centaur instead of the original Record. People are asking $900 - 1400 for Dura-Ace equipped CAAD7 bikes but I don't know if they are selling at...

I have one of those.

Could you trace the nut onto cardboard? Measure the OD of the threaded part of the shock, draw that circle diameter on the cardboard with a compass, cut out the circle and the end of the cardboard so you can fit it over the shock, then trace the outside of the nut onto the cardboard. Pretty...

Looks like a 2004 1FG, missing some decals. Finish and crank look right for that bike. Check with Craig at MendonCycleSmith for Headshok service.

Did you remove the stock shifter bosses? With the stock boss setup you will just need the Shimano spacers with a flat back rather than the radiused ones that you have. Not sure, but I may have a pair.

I think they were all 68 mm shells. Easy to measure and be sure. Spindle length and type will depend on what crank you use.

That's a nice looking Silk Road. I have a frame that's virtually identical but mine seems to have gotten the downtube decals from a SR900. If you have questions about the fork, post them in Headshox and Lefty section. MendonCycleSmith is the guy to talk to about fork issues

I think that's the right choice. 18.5 is still pretty light, 7400 works great and is probably going to last longer than most modern groups. The wheels give it a modern look, so you have a nice compromise of vintage and modern.

Nice to see a collection with a theme. Have you weighed the R900 as it is? It could be lightened up quite a bit if you want to throw a lot of money at it.

Do you know what size it is? Might be in the serial number.

Where did you get the decals? Perhaps Brian can help.

Pretty sure it's a 1997 F900, Super Black with Yellow Roughcut decals. Looks to be mostly original except for saddle, seatpost, and rear derailleur.

I've seen that crack before I think. Just above the weld where the dropout is welded to the seat stay? Local dealer told me that the road frames of that era would crack near the front derailleur but I've yet to see one crack there.

I think that translates to 1996, November. Likely a 1997 model. Pics of the bike and components should help.

Where did the SM700 crack? You should get that SV project built up.

That would have been the 7 speed Athena equipped SR900. Too bad about the paint.

Are you sure it's a 1989 model? I don't see silver on any of the 1989 road bikes. How are you building it?

I couldn't find my 1991 catalog when I replied, looked up the sizes in the 1990 assuming they were the same. Would be interesting to see how much difference there is between a 1990 16" and a 1991 15". Glad you don't have a 20 or 22, as I would be tempted.

That's newer than 1987, as it has the cantilever dropouts. Might be a 1990 SR300. Does it have SunTour Blaze components?
