One of the these in each cable stop https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/cables/jagwire-hose-guide-for-frame-loop-4-or-5-mm-black-each/ Then one of these in the middle. 👍 😁 https://www.sjscycles.co.uk/cables/acor-stick-on-cable-guide/

I removed mine years ago to fit it to a combined Hope Race lever clamp/mount and it seems to have disappeared into the void. If anyone did the same and has one lurking I'd be interested in buying it please. I'd rather not buy a whole shifter as this one's minty. Thanks, Ben. :)

Identiti XC rigid forks. 445mm Axle to Crown. 100mm QR dropouts. Disc only, I.S. Mount. 1⅛" straight steerer, 192mm length. Starnut fitted. There's the odd small scratch from use but overall good condition. £75 posted, UK only.

There was a m751 in the middle too. Octalink bb.

I lined tyre logos up long before Cytech. It just looks nice. I don't care if others do or not. Bikes coming along nicely Scott. :) can't be far off finished now?

Bump

Yeah go high and if the bead does start to come off, throw it, it bloody hurts if it goes in your hand. Sometimes the rim tape has shifted, sometimes the bead sticks on the tape and won't slide into place. Unfortunately sometimes the tyre's on the smaller end of acceptable tolerances and the rim...

Max Lite must be the name of the designer. That thing is one step away from becoming a singularity and gaining its own gravitational pull.

Probably the best bet. If I were to own that and go rigid, despite how nice that fork is, it would have to be a P2 I'm afraid. :)

Yeah, I can't imagine there's much of a market for a stars and bars fork. But at the same time it'd be a shame for someone to repaint it, it looks well matched.

I do like a contrasting frame and fork. They both look bang on to me. :)

Cool. Nice fork but I agree with the Z2. Bike looks sweet. :) you don't mess about do you!

Is that rigid fork a Potts/Cunningham type two or does it just look a bit like one?

If you swap the stem to 1 1/8" then surely everything is 1 1/8"? Then it just goes together normally.

Not sure if I'm getting the wrong end of the stick somehow but an 1 1/4" quill stem is never going in an 1 1/8" fork. You can adapt the other way or with threadless. But however hard you try an 1 1/4" quill is not going in an 1 1/8" steerer. They're the same diameter.
