Has anyone got a DX 36h rear hub to swap for a 32h in good condition? Silver please much appreciated, will post swap if possible or collect Merseyside area

Yeah was thinking that, it was off a SAKAE LITAGE so my initial thoughts was a sakae unit but need an exact match

Ah no, sport LX have the flat backs with the Shimano part number embossed as standard

Does anyone recognise these arms? Cut out to the rear is quite different

Got to be an uncracked NISHIKI ALIEN 90/91 red with chrome rear. For the UK pretty much unobtanium

Would anyone be able to point me in the direction of a SAKAE LITAGE frame number identification? I have acquired a bike with the frame number 00300506 and would like to identify the year, and possibly the guise the bike would have been sold under. Forks have a 2 stamped on the crown and brake...

Hi would like a current value on my coyote ultralite, 17 "carbon monocoque front, alu rear. Mix of years LX drive with xt front and rear deraillers. It's not so much the parts it's the bike frame I'm more interested. Any previous purchase/sales? Just squeaks in as a 97'

It's been ridden, came from a bike shop clear out which I took on as a few projects. As far as original owner etc couldn't tell you it's new to me this week. I've stripped and part rebuilt it so far with mid/mid high component, a mix of newer LX and older xt. Just gauging a price range as it...

Fantastic, knew I was on the right trail. Built up is there a value attached to these bikes?

I've edited the original thread to match our conversation. Although this isn't a for sale description it's best to be clearer

Yes I agree, I fully understand in its life that looking at the marks on the end cap it could have been offered up to a bike at some point, but it never left the bike shop in its 30 years, was never sold. When the time comes to sell I'll be sure to accurately describe it. The other dust and...

Comes down to condition/price/size at that level, go with your best fit for either/all the elements and get out and enjoy. I've experience with the saracen steels, good frames but sometimes let down by components so a basic upgrade can work wonders. Go with either

Hi, it was laced to a wheel but never sold. I took the rim off, the scratch was unfortunately there before I inherited it. Its never had a cassette fitted. The skewer isn't original to the hub (that may be used) but the hub/wheel set up still had the original bike shop selling tags present.

In the process of building this frame back to service and was wondering if the branding of either koga or coyote etc originated from the same frame ie the fastrax magnum. As mine stands with the coyote branding it seems to be exactly the same as the koga miyata sky expension frame?

3 hubs I'm struggling to value, green middleburn front, red bigfoot front and hope ti glide rear. Middleburn is used/faded but good, red bigfoot is fitted but nearly perfect, and hope ti glide was mounted but never fitted to a bike so new. Thanks folks
