Many thanks for the help and sorry I posted in the wrong place - hadn't spotted there was a separate section for scans! I tried the link again and made it work this time - had to download in a new window and for some reason that was OK. Paul

Many thanks ... that's a good start!

This is probably the most boring, most-asked post ever, but as a newbie, hope you'll humour me and maybe help? I've just got hold of a '95 Marin Palisades Trail on Ebay which replaces one I had from new but was nicked a few years ago. It's pretty scratched up, but the components are good. I...
