Here are some photos of my 2001 Dave Yates Super Randonneur. I found the frame on the iBob list and collected parts over time and from various sources and I must say that the result is very pleasing to me.
The frame sepcifications are as follows (all measurements are center to center):
Seat tube: 57cm
Top Tube: 57cm
Seat angle: 72.5 degrees
Head angle: 72.9 degrees
Fork rake: 4.4cm
Front Center: 60.2cm
Wheel Base: 101cm
Chain Stay: 42.2cm
Bottom Bracket drop: 7.5cm
As I said, I got the various parts from various places, but mostly those
were from the members of the iBob list.
Here are the sources as best as I can recall:
Frame: purchased off the list from iBob Ed Felker (Ed, I love this bike!)
Cinelli stem: purchased also from Ed, but long before he ever listed the frame.
Cinelli H-bars (64-42, one groove): purchased from iBob Chris Collins
Crank (TA Zephyer): Purchased from iBob David Hallerman
Schmidt SON hub: Purchased from iBob Jan Heine
Rims (MA2, 32 hole): Purchased from iBob Alex Wetmore
(back up rims, purchased from iBob Jim Gourgoutis)
Rear Der. (105 long cage): purchased from iBob Tim Bartoe
Shift levers (Ultegra, 8sp barends): I got these a long time ago, but
I'm certain I got them off the list)
Brake Levers (Shimano Aero levers): Same deal as above, I forget who I
got them from but I'm certain I bought them off the list.
Saddlebag (Carridice Pendle): From iBob Glenn Flick
What's left? Well, I did buy some things brand new, but from local shops:
Fenders, headlight, saddle bag rack (Berthoud SS, E6, Bagman (not shown)): From
iBob Peter White (note the modification to the cable bolt on the
front deraileur. I had to swap out the bolt that Shimano uses because
the head was very large and it came in contact with the fender when I
shifted to the large chainring. Now, at lease some daylight shows
between the two components.)
Saddle (Brooks B17 Champion Special, Honey): Jitensha Studio
Bottle cages (King, stainless steel): Stone's Cyclery, Alameda, CA
Bottom bracket and Chain Rings (Phil Wood, and TA): From frame builder Ed Litton
I bought the seat post (Campy two bolt) at the Mill Valley Swap meet I got the brake calipers and rear hub and cassette (Shimano 105s, dual pivots, and Shimano 600, Shimano 8speed) as give aways from a fellow local bike club member, and the front Shimano 105 triple der also from a fellow local bike club member as a giveaway. I also got the Shimano 105 pedals with the Look pattented mechanisms from a swap meet.
