| Some pretty good road rash on he bottom side of the rear derailleur. Will file & sand which should make it look a litte better. |
 |
| Some road rash on the hanger area of the rear derailleur and the quick release nut. |
 |
| The chain is SRAM 8-speed and has a "missing link" or quick disconnect. |
 |
| The lever side of the rear wheel quick release also has some road rash. I can be made to look a little better. |
 |
| Will put these wheels on the Paramount. The tires are very old and need to be replaced, if the bike is going to be ridden. |
 |
| Mavic MA 40 seems to have been a pretty common alloy rim in it's day for higher end road bikes... |
 |
| MAVIC 510 hubs |
 |
| 6 speed |
 |
| The front and rear hubs match |
 |
| Sprayed penetrating oil on both skewers and let it sit for at least a day. The front skewer after removal. The shaft was stuck to the center hub of the wheel. Had to use a little bit of force to get it out. The springs are corroded and one of them is broken. Both need to be replaced. This skewer is a replacement skewer I installed several years ago (3?). |
 |
| The "nut" on the other end is pretty corroded. May not be able to clean. Will have to try and see. |
 |
| The lever end of the skewer is not as bad. May be able to clean it up to usable condition. |
 |
| The rear skewer had much less corrosion. |
 |
| The springs are corroded and should be replaced. |
 |
| The lever end is also not too bad, other than the spring. |
 |
| The lever end is pretty scratched up from previous crashes. Will clean it up and put some black paint on it. |
