Re: Kona Explosif '92 For Sale Hi You call the bike a project what work does it need ? Thanks

Hi I have had a small clear out this morning and am shocked by the amount of wheels i have picked up for projects etc. There is at least 2 pairs of wheels both have 7 speed cassettes Front wheels are quick release rear bolts. There are some other odd alloy wheels too. They all run straight...

I have a 2003 Raleigh X1 hybrid wihich is 21 gears and i want to know how easy it would be to convert to 24 speed, I have shifters and rear mech, Can my wheel take a 8 speed cassette ? Also very annoyingly my brakes squeak or scream very loudly i get complaints when i am riding :oops: How easy...

I am offering my Dawes Switchback for sale, I really like this bike i use it as my town bike but in saying that i dont use it a lot. I have now bought a hybrid. The bike dates back to 1992 i think, Its in very original condition paintwork does have scratches as expected but i think is still...

Not sure, My bike has the wrong one fitted which is too small and has lightly damaged the frame being over tighterned, i am hoping with the right post it will restore the frame to tip top shape (this is how i got the bike ), Do you know what the choices are ? I think its a late 70s early 80s frame.

Hi Tel There is no hurry, when you have time, Dont suppose you have a seat post for an old raleigh too ? !!

I have just bought a road bike off a guy who works at the tip, He has loads from there he does them up and sells them on cheap, Good recycing in my eyes, His garage is a gold mine ! He had just picked up a gary Fisher bike, It always amazes me what people throw away, I thought with ebay and...

Hi tel I would go with that, as i am intending to go to 12 speed at a later date, hopefully i can swap the cassette on the back from five to six ? i bought a 5 speed new old stock on ebay last night.

Hi Thanks for your help but i really need a double shifter as i want to keep the bike a 10 speed.

Hi My bike is 10 speed are they double levers ? As i need to operate front & rear derailleurs ? How much would you be wanting for them ? Thanks
