VeloBase.com website was started in the summer of 2007 as a way for the owner, Jon Fischer, to give back to the vintage cycling community. As a wiki style project, site members can add, edit, comment and vote on vintage cycling components, head badges, tools and much more.
The goal of the website is to provide a comprehensive database of vintage cycling knowledge for reference during everything from restorations to general maintenance to researching the cycling parts of the past. The parts shown in the VeloBase collection are not for sale. All items are submitted by users for informational purposes only. Many of the parts were found through ebay auctions, one of the best sources for finding vintage parts for sale.
If you are looking for a hard to find part, may I suggest looking at the eBay Seller list on this site for a list of eBay sellers who regularly have many vintage cycling components for sale.
Please read the Copyright Policy page before uploading photos which are not your own. If someone has uploaded an image which belongs to you, please report it through the site, or email me with the name of the component(s) and I will remove or give credit if requested. We have a generally accepted age cut off of 15 years old, so approx the mid 1990's.
We currently have parts ranging in date from the 1920's through the mid 1990's. There are also a number of tools such as the Gear Calculator which can be applied to any bicycle of any age. This website and the VeloBase.com project is always growing, evolving, and hopefully getting better. I encourage you to visit the forum and share any ideas or suggestions you may have.
