Re:
Had fun looking through this thread. Here's my '95 Saracen Terratrax that's been hastily resurrected, having sat unused in my parent's garage for the last 15 years, to accompany my son who got his first bike at Christmas.
Shifters were seized and replaced by modern Altus 310 ones (may look for retro ones eventually but they're fairly unobtrusive and see to work well with the old components).
As they were integrated with brake levers these have been replaced with Alivio BL-MC16 NOS.
Also a NOS Alivio FD-MC14 front derailleur as neither I nor the LBS could get the original to shift smoothly.
New tyres, brake pads, saddle and cables but the rest is original.
Will probably get a new BB but haven't had time yet.
Really surprised at how well it still rides, and how much I'm enjoying cycling again.
