Specialized Body Geometry Romin SL 143 bicycle seat -- before & after cleaning

This and next four pictures are before cleaning









This and next five pictures are after cleaning.  The pictures are not very dramatic but the seat really cleaned up nice (most small stains came out).






Newly acquired HKS road bike detail pictures -- part 5



Serial number on the bottom of the bottom bracket

Bottom bracket bearing - Shimano BB-7400

The small crank ring is 39 tooth (smaller than usual for an older road bike...)

Big crank gear is 52 tooth (53 or 52 seems to be typical)


Shimano "clipless" pedals.  These are VERY heavy!  My guess is that new ones are half the weight or less...


Tange bike - part 3 (Rear deraileur, shift levers, etc.)


Rear deraileur is Shimano RD-7401

Shifters are Shimano 105 on the downtube and are indexed

I wonder if they are noticeably "light action"...

Sticker on the fork.

This "bump" on the back of the head-tube is for mounting a bike pump...

Rear deraileur cable is fraying & needs to be replaced

Freewheels are marked Shimano & look like they can be cleaned/saved...

Rear brake cable is fraying & needs to be replaced

Markings on the back of the brakes (BR-1055).  I don't know what the "Max 49 - 39 Min" means yet...


The front wheel skewer, bottom of the fork & wheel hub needs cleaning (& some paint on the fork)...
