Probably a very over asked question but where can you get 26 x 1.95 amber / gum wall tyres mainly cheap cheerful? There used to be a listing for Duro ones on eBay but no longer there. Don't want to spend a fortune as its only for an old Gary Fisher used for riding round with my daughter. I have...

What's the front Spinergy and shock worth? I'd like the brakes and a few bits for my bike but not everything. What is the rear wheel looks odd where the spokes go into the rim?

Hi is this bike especially the front wheel worth getting my hands on? Not sure on the year so sorry in advance if it's in the wrong section

Does anyone know what components are fitted to it? I'm assuming it's all pretty low grade stuff! It's up for £35 just fancied another work hack! Either that or sort a few bits on my current one!

Does any one know what year this might be? I know it's entry level but am struggling to find it! Looking in the archives I think it's 1990. The owner says it's black but I'm wondering if it's Aegean blue? Tempted to get it as a work bike and sell my Gary Fisher

Cheers for all the he advice. A quick search on eBay I've seen a few different things. I will have a go soon. Been busy with my work hack tonight.

Cheers that's what I was wondering if there is an actual filler, especially if it's coloured to suit that I can fill the hole with then shine the saddle up with something. Il search around and see what I can get.

Hum maybe, I've got loads of sump sealant at work. Might work if it dries hard. Seems a shame to do a full refurb to a nice saddle!

Cheers I will look at that later. Anything will do as long as it gets it back together. Just trying to keep it useable

I've got some better pics of the seal. I do have a wanted add but nothing coming up.

Some better pictures

I see there is a thread in the restoration hints about repairing seats but I'm not sure what to do with the saddle I have. In general it is in very good condition and the logos are very good. The only thing is a tiny hole and scuff on one corner. Is there a more sympathetic way to repair this? I...

I was looking more to use the original but really want to replace this seal! Might see if I can find an o ring at work as anything is better than a torn seal!

Good morning what headset was used on the above I see in the achieve that it just says sealed tech, is it possible to buy new or similar? I just want the seal that goes in the top nut as mine is destroyed. I want to try and get this bike up and running again and this seems a tricky part to...

Would these fit a 7spd cassette from a 1996 fisher wahoo if deal not done as above?
