Have you still got these? Tom

Here's a couple of pics, I dunno if it is a block or a cassette, it has been called both by various bike shops in the last 24 hours... Looks like there is a nos suntour replacement on eVilbay.... Hopefully it'll be up and running soon! Its about time I put many more miles on it...

Nice one, Thanks both of you, kinda hoping its not the cassette that needs replacing! Ill try the oil and see what happens! Tom

Hello out there, I don't know if anyone has come across the issue I'm having? My rear cassette seems to be spinning with no resistance, the chain is engaged correctly but there is no resistance while pedalling. If i then change gear then it engages and I can cycle normally, it is becoming a...

Nice one for that, I've been looking @ the White Industries stuff...looks like this project might finally make it off the ground!! Tom

Hi out there.... A good mate of mine just gave me a frame as it is too small for him, there are advantages of being 5'7"! I was wondering if anyone out there knew anything about these frames, seems to be a bit ore modern than the usual Paganini frames that I've been able to find. Seems in...

Yep, its 144... I only changed the crank arms recently, so I guess the bolt could of come loose! If you have a pic of what u have, let me know! Tom

Hey Guys n Gals..... Well, too much hill, too much effort, not enough technique! I was on my way home from a spin on the weekend and this happened. :( Kinda gutting for nice original equipment to die... :cry: It seems ot of suffered some lateral stress as a chainring bolt shot...

Hi out there, I have had a set of wheels in with my LBS for over 5 weeks, only to be told upon collection that they are unable to get cones in for my hubs.... So much for a cheap speedy fix... I was wondering if anyone out there might know where to get some cones for a Shimano Exage HG50 rear...

Both the chain and block were about 2 months old...turns out I managed to split the two smallest gears... Block replaced so should be up and running Wonder how long this one will last... Thanks for the ideas though!!

I was wondering if a cheap chain can lead to it slipping, I have recently changed my block and chain for new version and all was good for a short while, however the other night it started slipping, just in the small cog @ the back and it makes a horrible noise.....It only feels like it slips one...

Success!!! Thanks for the suggestions. A weeks worth of carefully applied GT85 and some serious persuasion! All I need to do now is to find a nice old skool 26.4 seat post!

Good day to you all..... I'm having a bit of a nightmare with my seatpost @ the moment, the top of the seat post has become loose so the seat swivels, this issue has been magnified now that it seems the seat post is stuck in the frame. I adjusted the height of it about 6 months ago so it...

Hi, I bought this as an alternative to taking the tram in Dublin, originally it was a cheap run about but it turned out to be much better than I thought and more comfortable than ever anticipated. Just installed the brooks saddle and bar tape to improve the looks. Some nice origional...
