I feel the space crunch, I'm living in a small apartment in San Francisco with only a small back yard and set up a tarp down there. Nothing special, mostly full of bikes too. Tried building in the house once, but had the same problem of needing to walk up and down the stairs to get parts

That’s the same Cinelli. I was finally convinced that the bike was worth more to me than it would be to someone else, and that I should just ride it. Which I do. --Eric Norris campyonly...@me.com Insta: @CampyOnlyGuy YouTube: YouTube.com/CampyOnlyGuy > On Mar 8, 2021, at 12:08 PM, George

Matthew, I like your doggie. What's he/she's name and what the breed? Eric...hmmm, seems like I recall that restored Cinelli being up for sale a while back. Didn't sell or am I thinking of a different bike? On Monday, March 8, 2021 at 12:07:44 PM UTC-6 campyo...@me.com wrote: > Not really

I've got a 2 car garage all to myself, though the car takes up half the space, generally. But I've been dragging my feet over workbench cleanup and won't post photos of its current state of disarray. Alan's closet reminds me of a neat solution I found almost 18 years ago when I lived for 6 months

I am lucky to have a house and a full garage shop. I used to make frames in it. I have way too many bike tools. But years ago I used to live in an apartment. I had fewer tools, but bikes were simpler and less was needed. Even a Campy full tool kit was more than you needed to maintain bicycles.

Thanks everyone for sharing your benches. This is really cool! Thank you, Doug! I like to clear the bench at the end of the day, setting things to rights is meditative. Doesn't always happen! Eric, wow, looks like a lifetime of mechanical work and riding. It's funny how sometimes having two

Thanks - it was a beauty and quite rare as an original (certified) pre-tag body so probably one of the first 100 made. The paint job was a 10-footer at best though & I did re-use the seat frames but the rest of them had been occupied my Mr. & Mrs. Mouse for too long to be saved (mask & gloves
