    New build

    lol i had one of those new : ) really good to see it. assholes at the bike shop built it up with the fork thewrong way around so i had the brake inside the frame, feet that touched the front wheel and nasty looking geometry. first time ive seen one with the forks on the right way lol

    is this worth keeping?

    not old enough to be interesting but i was taken by the fat ally frame. completely unbranded parts other than the v8 pedals and GT stem so ive no idea what it is..has a sticker that says it has been distributed by vega corp chester...though not a lot of information online about what it is/was...

    does anyone recognise this sticker?

    Re: obviously it could just be an apollo, though the weight of it seems to discredit that-the serial number that begins with AJ... isnt so encouraging lol. i know that you can put a bontrager saddle on anything but there are a few bits on this that dont point to a completely cheapy bike...

    does anyone recognise this sticker?

    no ide what this bike is, its too small for me, maybe 16 inch ally frame,very light, square section chain and seat stays and was covered in random stickers and the originals had been peeled away i guess. the only sticker that looks original to the bike is this one in the pic. any ideas? cheers

    Marin MTB - a question aboutt the steering

    no neither do i but i would minimise the number of moving parts in the general area surrounding your problem. also the fact that it does have an extender might have well been the cause of your issue if you had a heavy person leaning on them and putting more strain on the head tube than it was...

    Marin MTB - a question aboutt the steering

    your bike, in the other thread looks like it has a stem extender? something to make the stem longer/taller?

    Marin MTB - a question aboutt the steering

    just a thought, but do you think that the stem extender thing might not have something to do with this notchiness?
