First off - three special bargains for CR discussion group members...
I have a few more of the EVEREST SERIE ORO NOS NIP 3/32in CHAINS left these are an ideal stiffer chain for older derailleurs where chain gap between top pulley and rear sprocket is large such Campag GS, NR, SR etc Look absolutely gorgeous with their gold outer plates just $19 each
And I still have a few CAMPAGNOLO FRAME TRANSFERS 1960s left - a really lovely Campagnolo transfer I think intended for fitting to the top tube of Campagnolo equipped bikes in the 1960s or 1970s. $15 each or two for $25
REYNOLDS 531C varnish fix transfer set, 1980s seat tube and fork blades $14 a set, or two sets for $25
For period cycling book fans... CHAMPION ON TWO WHEELS 1975 Hugh Porter¹s autobiography. 187pp Another excellent clean copy complete with virtually perfect dustjacket - why do several identical items sometimes turn up close together and then you do not see them for months or years? Hugh Porter was World Track Pursuit champion four times which was a record in itself. Plenty of photos. Hardback. $25
LEGENDS OF CYCLING by Peter Kent Kennedy Bros paperback 36 page book published in the 1970s which is well illustrated on the lessr known greats in cycling. Great reading. $15
CONTINENTAL CYCLE RACING by Noel Henderson 191 page hardback published 1970 with very good dustjacket. This is a chapter by chapter guide to all the important cycle races with a very comprehensive list of winners. It is invaluable companion when you need to know who won the Paris-Roubaix in 1926 or who took the Points jersey in the TDF in 1969. It has also a wonderful last chapter discussing how to rank all the great riders - when this book was written Fausto Coppi came out tops. Very good section on how English speaking riders had fared. Thoroughly recommended. $30
And some other transfers... MADE IN ENGLAND shield transfers about 3/4in high by 1/2in wide, waterslide in red, white and black. $8 each
