Can any of you guys put me on the trail of a preload adjuster knob for my boys Giant Boulder 6000 ALU XX with Suntour XCT forks. The piece is about 21 or 22mm and the metric thread pitch is 1.5. It seems all the later forks have a larger size piece, approx 25mil and no shops have any of these...

As per the heading the frame is an early Giant Cedex carbon frame which I'm fairly reliably informed is of the type ridden by Hinault in the '80's. Whatever it is quite light and in very good condition. The size is 55cm centre bottom bracket which is English thread to top of the top tube and the...

I've got a Giant Boulder 3000 Alu xxx MTB with Suntour XCT forks.I need the preload knob that screws into the right lower fork. From the Suntour manuals it looks like the part I want is FKE 007 however I'm not sure of the thread diameter which could be 24 or 25mm. If you have anything which...

An old name but obviously been bought up by some Eastern mob, a Falcon Californian, a 19" polished aluminium frame set up for a bit of gravel type fun as it's on aero 700c's with aero bladed spokes and very good 35 mil tyres. Gears are close ratio, lowest is 28 x 24 so you won't be climbing any...

This is the last bike I restored, a quick rebuild that only took a few weeks, currently looking for something to pique my interest but with the lockdown and consequently no bike jumbles there is not much material to be found.

Got a nice Grandini frame which I shall be spraying in a light blue metallic but first I 'dry built' the bike in order to find and sort any problems with attaching components after the paintwork is complete. It's mainly early Campag including chainset, it's 53/42, pedals, seatpin, slightly...

I'm on the hunt for a pair of Alan cyclo cross forks. They're the ones with the cantilever brake bosses on the front. Preferably in silver finish. They would be for a 50cm frame so any size steerer would be good. Thanks guys.

As there is a dedicated fixed wheel machine thread I thought I would bore you all with the tale of my particular example of single speed machinery. I was at a bike jumble when I spotted a very sad, very bent and battered old Claud Butler. What caught my eye was the fact that the frame was...

This is a 52cm carbon ALAN road bike built up with very useable components. It would suit the slightly smaller rider or perhaps a female rider as the top tube is a modest 53cm and the 3ttt stem is a shortish 9.5cm. The chainset and brakes are Shimano, the rear mech is Suntour, front mech being...

I'm on the hunt for a 25 mil Campag seatpost for my ALAN frame. Preferably the early Gran Sport model but a late model would be fine. Thanks guys.

A very tasty 22" Hobbs Blue Riband frame. Manufactured around 1950, mildly modernised with removal of down tube pump pegs and braze fitment of front mech gear lever boss and respective cable stop eye. Also the ends have been clearanced for Q/R hubs. Top tube is 22 1/2", seat tube takes a 27.2mm...

Does anybody know when the 2017 edition of the Retro Ronde will be taking place. There is no dates shown on their web site just a reference to facebook. I ike to book accommodation well in advance as it does get busy.

I say chaps, get your tweeds out, this one's for you. 23" W.F.Holdsworth circa 50's with fancy Nervex lugs and Agrati ends. 531 double butted finished in deep green with white lugs and panels plus the correct head badge. Dunlop 'special lightweight' 27" rims rebuilt with new stainless spokes on...

22" Harry Quinn time trial frame. From the frame number I reckon this to be manufactured approx. mid 1970's. A top time trial frame in it's day with Campag vertical dropouts and fastback stays. I think they are Bocama lugs, 27.2 seat tube and 125mil OLD just right for your 13/17 block. Braze ons...

Just finished the restoration of a lugless Claud Butler road frame and in order to get the correct decals for it I am trying to get confirmation of year of manufacture. From the build and parts on the frame I am led to believe it is just post war, maybe 1946/47. Unfortunately I cannot find any...
