Hi All, I'm just pondering what to put on my Humu I'm building up whilst it's off at the sprayer. I've managed to grab some quite nice bits so its not quite shaping up to be the rat bike I intended. Thomson bmx stem, stooge growler bars, hope ti glide wheels etc, Now, I have an M737 chainset...

Finding it hard to buy what I want or sell what I have so I'm getting out of this retrobike stuff! Selling this as a nice cheap bundle, no point splitting. XT M737 hubs with QRs - 32 hole. XT M737 rear mech XT M735 front mech 28.6mm clamp top pull. XT M737 crankset 180mm c/w middle burn (blue)...

As above, black or polished. Ideally with a 30-32T chainring. Other nice but not crazy expensive cranks will be considered. Also a thomson inline elite seatpost (assumed 27.2mm TBC), front and rear skewers, and a nice 1 1/8 headset. It's for a clunker-typre build so (sadly) looks are everything...

I have just realised this ad is from december of last year. Sorry for being a numpty.

I'd be interested in the cranks if you end up splitting.

Still for sale if anyone wants them!

Hi Simon! It would be a pleasure selling it back to you.

Thanks primo! I was intending on keeping the brakes, crank and seatpost. Nothing written in stone though. I have bought a Kona Humu frame in a more suitable size so I will need a few bits.

Are you sorted? I have rear and front mechs and hubs (with skewers). Keeping the crank and brakes I'm afraid!

Hi All, Selling this frame and it's simply too big for me, otherwise I'd be keeping it! It's not in perfect condition by any means, but has original paint, decals etc. P2 (correct I think) fork, race light bars and Velocity stem. Will leave the headset in too; I understand it's quite an uncommon...

Think I've got to teh bottom of it. The frame (chain stay bridge) seems to have been adapted to take a 135mm. Not ideal, but at least it hasn't just been splayed and it's not going to see any action from me. Makes sourcing wheels easier too! Thanks for the advice all!

Thanks Iveto. The seller (who seems like a good type) has said the the rear hub measures at 135mm. I thought only the disc humus were 135? It could have been splayed, and to be perfectly honest it will have a very easy life so it's probably no biggie. I'm also pretty sure he has standard shimano...

I say component issues, it's more like (lack of) knowledge issues... Hi All, I have a very well used Humu frame on its way to me. I have always wanted one AND NOW ITS MINE!!!! i think it's around a 1995 (no disc tabs). I didn't anticipate just how difficult it is to figure out what to put on it...

No probs buddy. Good luck!

Ah got you. Thanks Retro Guru!
