  1. Hi Group,

    Can anybody recommend a source for Campag spares out there in cyberspace? I
    have identified the bits I want from the Campag website, but am loath to try
    and order via my LBS as they have let me down on special orders in the past.

    Thanks,

    Andy Cox

    For small parts to fix/rebuild Campag components:

    www.italiancycleproducts.co.uk

    www.parker-international.co.uk

    For whole Campag components:

    www.dotbike.com - low prices, excellent quick service, freepost

    www.parker-international.co.uk/components.htm - big range and they know
    their stuff. A few new-old-stock items as well.

    www.ebay.co.uk - chance of poor service is very low and you can save loads
    of £££ on new as well as used items, especially on old stock.

    www.cyclingbargains.com - Lowest prices on certain items. I'm currently
    having problems with a lost/delayed parcel - dunno if that's at all typical.

    Ribble - dreadful service after they make mistakes, ime.

    Problems now sorted - quickly and courteously . That's what's important.
    Everyone can make a mistake, but not everyone then bothers to really help
    you.

  5. I can recommend the italiancyclingproducts having used them after Pete's
    recommendation. Andy who runs that outfit is a really decent bloke who was
    happy to help me with my front shifter problem. I recommend them without
    hesitation.

  6. Thanks for the responses. On a semi-related note, my Campag groupset lacks
    any obvious distinguishing marks, from having looked at the Campag site, '95
    Avanti looks very similar. Are there any clever places that Campag stamp
    the range name?

    Thanks,

    Andy

    They simply didn't bother with a lot of the older stuff. And unlike
    Shimano, they rarely use model numbers either.

    Someone may recongnise your stuff if you describe or picture it in graphic
    detail.

    Sorry I'm not too good on pre '99 Campag myself.
