Howdy

I was wondering what the handlebars are on your bike?

Any chance we could see a photo of the entire bike?

As I stated in the first post, the fork is not original to the frame. I bought it as frame only.
The completed bike picture is as I had it built up last. Over the twelve years that I've had the...

Is this a Pinarello?

Hi,
I bought this frame 12 years ago from a popular action site. I built it up and have ridden it sparingly through the twelve years that I've had it. It turned out to be a tad to small for me. I...

wrong nut

I'd say atleast one of the nuts isn't the correct nut. Someone at some point probably just forced the wrong nut onto the axle. Check the threads on the axle. Do they look deformed?

Fixed gear?

I believe the OP is going to set it up as a fixed gear.
I could be wrong.

Thanks

Thanks for the heads up. It looks pretty much like the Park tool.
I've used the park tool before and , as others have noted, there's quite a bit of play in it.
I agree about the truing stand.

Great advice. I have my make shift frame spreader that will work perfectly for your suggestion. I'll work slowly. Back and forth as you suggested.

Yes

Yes, I saw that one. A little rich for my blood. I agree with the park tool. That's why I'm thinking anything cheaper would be worse.

I must confess. At a safe estimate, over the last eleven and a half years, I've assembled around 40,000 BSOs. I like bikes, I like to ride, I like to wrench, and I work with what I'm given.
