Campagnolo Bike Building Video
 
Tim Laflin at Work
From Box To Bike by Tim Laflin
75 minutes of detailed, easy to follow instructions that will show you how to build a bicycle from a bare frame and a box of components or teach you how to better tune your existing bicycle. CampyOnly.com technical expert Tim Laflin guides you through the building process in this well written and presented video. Tim starts with tapping and facing the frame for proper installation of the headset and bottom bracket. He then moves on to cover:
Cutting the fork column and milling the fork crown.
Installing the handlebars and stem.
Proper positioning of the brake/shift levers.
Brake and derailleur installation including wiring techniques and proper cable length.
Crankarm installation and bottom bracket alignment.
Cassette and chain installation including how to determine proper chain length.
Derailleur and brake adjustments and fine tuning.
Saddle mounting and positioning.
Details on tools required for each operation and their proper use.

Tim designed this video to make the build process flow smoothly and easily. Along the way he offers many tips and tricks that were gleaned from his years of work as the CampyOnly.com Technical Expert. All Campagnolo equipment is used but most of the detailed information will work with Shimano components as well.

Branford Bike Online Catalog - Archival Edition
brought to you by the former owner of Branford Bike, Tim Brockett via his personal web site, TimsLife.Com
This is an archival edition of the Branford Bike web site from February 2006. Complete with product photos, prices, how to articles and technical specifications it is a treasure trove of accurate, detailed and historical information.

In July of 2006 Branford Bike was incinerated by a huge forest fire. No one was hurt but the inventory and buildings were completely destroyed. I witnessed the fire and stayed until the trees were burning in my driveway. At that point I hiked from Branford Bike, through the smoke and embers, down the mountain to my Jeep 3 miles away. I took photos and wrote about the harrowing experience so everyone could see what I saw. My insurance was generous and I later rebuilt my home and started another business selling books. Read the story here.

Branford Bike was a huge part of my life for over 30 years; June 1976 to July 2006. I enjoyed those years tremendously and Branford Bike was often a labor of love. I hope you enjoy browsing through the archival catalog. If your visit brings back pleasant memories please share them with me via e-mail at timbrockett@gmail.com .

If you find any printed Branford Bike catalogs, advertisments or flyers please scan them as a PDF and email. Or you may mail them via US Post to Tim Brockett, PO Box 1711, Emigrant, MT 59027. Eventually I will post them in a Memorabilia catalog section.

Many Thanks and Best Wishes,
Tim Brockett
