I’ve been having a nice chat with the owner of this fine specimen

Before I drop this cyclone chainset off to be anodised in black (which seems a shame) Does anyone have an interesting black chainset to swap ? Bike is a 98 for reference. Something like a Raceface or something else a bit different. No shimano. Needs to be square taper. Can be cash either...

Not sure on bar length without measuring but I’ve decided to now keep them fitted to the Hot

Now £180 posted

I’ll try to research. Are they Matte black or gloss? 25.4? And what width?

What year is the bar from? As most I’ve seen are shimmed until it gets to the later 98 versions onwards

Thank you. Mine have no stamp apart from the length. They are a cool crank and very different to others I own so I’d like to use them. They remind me of L&M a bit too. Issue is the builds I’m doing all demand a black crank

Yes I’m interested in the levers and Syncros bar. Any pics of the bar? And prices for both please

So just to complete this Bike is now done and I’m happy with it. In time I may change the cranks for a black pair to see how I feel but it’s not urgent as they silver suits well too. The other (blue) Hot frame has found a new home with someone who’s going to pick up somewhat where I left off...

I have these cyclone cranks which I may fit to a Ku. I’d planned to go RF or maybe M952 but theee have fell into my lap and are different. They need to be black however. So one option is to have them anodised. (I’ve a guy) But …. Are the black cutouts anything other than just paint? I assume...

Yes please

Q plate - isn’t all bad. MOT is less strict (or it used to be when I had mine) Everyone on here is old enough not to worry about insurance costs and MOTs are easy to ‘acquire’. So it’s just the benefit of free RFL which is appealing. I’ve been looking again at Novas again. I’d quite like a...
